Main / Religion / Holy sites / Libila Holy Site

Description

An unholy ritual circle of uncertain purpose.

A crude totem of skulls, viscera, and decay.

A Libila Holy site will spawn randomly and will have a Libila theme and biome. It will be in a unsettled area of the map.

There are two different types of Libila Holy sites that can spawn

Abyssal Circle

• An unholy ritual circle of uncertain purpose.
• Spawns on tundra.

Pillar of Decay

• A crude totem of skulls, viscera, and decay.
• Spawns on tar and peat.

Positive effects

Holy Sites have several positive effects. Except when otherwise stated, all these effects are available only to accounts with Premium time, and that have at least 30 Faith with the Holy Site’s deity.

Passive effects

These are active whenever you are within the Holy Site. Special visual effects and a spell effect icon will make it clear when you are within the Holy Site’s current borders.

Doubled QL gain bonus for items favored by Libila, which means items receive +20% to QL increases from improvement, rather than 10%.

• Libila grants this effect to leather items.

• Higher faith gain, and greater favor gain for Libila, for all prayers and sermons held at any altar within the site or at the Holy site itself.

• Hostile monsters will no longer be hostile towards you. This is the same effect that Libila priests are granted at 60 faith. They are ignored by monsters (this does not apply to all hostile creatures, as some are not considered monsters (like bears). This also excludes rift monsters and legendary creatures.

• Higher faith gain, and greater favor gain for Libila, for all prayers and sermons held at any altar within the site or at the Holy site itself.*

Special actions

Abyssal Circle Channel a crystal containing the soul of a random type creature, possibly with the Champion or Diseased condition.

• A soul crystal can be broken with a hammer, blunt weapon, or sacrificial knife in exchange for a powerful Mind Stealer-like effect, using the creature template to determine possible skills. “Diseased” condition gives less skill and “Champion” condition gives more.

Pillar of Decay Extract a flesh pod using any valid butchering tool.

• The flesh pod may be hatched into a tamed Simulacrum creature by using it on any tile. If the flesh pod has a condition such as “Champion” or “Greenish”, the creature will have that condition.
• Quality of flesh pod, rarity of flesh pod, and type of tile used to hatch the Simulacrum will affect its size and the values of several of its characteristics, making it weaker or stronger in combat.

Pulse effects

Abyssal Circle or Pillar of Decay

• Long-lasting “Rampage” spell effect on everyone within the Holy Site.
• This effect provides an offensive CR bonus and a significant reduction in stamina drain.
• The power and duration of this effect can be extended by killing creatures while the effect is active

Creature spawns

Creatures, often with conditions, may spawn in or near the holy sites.

• This may include creatures with conditions that cannot spawn normally. For example, a scared seal or champion sheep.
• The types of creatures that can spawn, and the condition they are likely to have, depends on the type of Holy site.
• Libila sites have a slightly higher chance to spawn champion creatures.

Backlash effects

When performing any action at a Holy Site that might affect its Power or Corruption level (praying, preaching, purifying, or desecrating), there is a chance of a negative “Backlash” effect happening to you. This effect usually shares a theme with the Holy Site type or deity.

The chance of a Backlash effect, and the average intensity of them, is increased by:

• The Holy Site’s Corruption being above 40.
• Higher Corruption if praying or preaching to increase Power.
• Higher Power if attempting to desecrate the site.
• Lower skill for a Power or Corruption influencing action (Praying, Preaching, or Exorcism).
• Actions relating directly to Corruption (purifying or desecrating).

If the Holy Site’s Corruption is above 40, there is also a small chance to trigger a Backlash effect when performing the Holy Site’s special action.

All Backlash effects may be partially or completely resisted by a Soul Strength skill check.

Various Backlash effects are possible, including a random wound, various hostile spell effects being applied to you, or hostile creatures being summoned against you.

Expiration effects

When the activated Holy sites expires, the following things will happen:

• A very large amount of favor, for charging Rite of death will be granted..the amount will be increased by rarity and power values and decreased by corruption.
• One last pulse effect is triggered, but with a significantly enhanced effect, as if the site had a power closer to 100.
