Description

This spell stores favor in gems, depending on the QL of the gem and your current amount of favor.

You need at least 7.5 favor to begin to cast Vessel. The cost of the cast is 5 favor. Any remaining favor is stored in the gem and the priest may gain channeling skill. Once charged, the gem is renamed to "Radiant [gem type]." Vessel cannot be cast on "Radiant" gems.

No favor is stored if the gem is less than 10QL. Instead, the cast uses 5 favor and the priest may still gain channeling skill. The gem loses 3QL or is destroyed if less than 3QL.

Method

  1. Activate a statuette of your god
  2. Right-click a gem
  3. Select Spells > Vessel

Using the gem

  1. Right-click the gem
  2. Select Use

When you use the gem it will lose QL in the amount of half the favor given. A 25ql gem filled with 10 favor upon use will give 20 favor and the gem will fall to 15ql. With no more favor stored, the gem is renamed back to its original gem type.


Favor Used to Fill a Gem

The amount of favor used to fill a gem with favor completely is the QL plus 5, so a 20QL gem would require 25 favor to fill completely.


Favor Stored in Gem

The amount of favor stored in a gem is double the amount used to fill the gem.


Upon examining a gem the approximate amount of favor stored can be found from the power emitted.

Favor Amount Message
1 - 10 It emits faint power.
10 - 16.50* It emits some power.
16.50* - 50 It emits power.
51 - 100 It emits quite a lot of power.
101 - 150 It emits very much power.
150+ It emits huge amounts of power

∗ The mark of denotation is somewhere between 16.38 and 16.65. It was averaged to 16.50

Example of storing and using Vessel

Assume that the Priest has 50 Faith and a therefore a maximum of 50 Favor. The priest also has a gem of 25QL

If the priest had 30 favor and cast vessel on the 25QL gem their favor would drop to 0 and the gem would be completely filled with power, as the favor to completely fill a gem is the QL plus 5 Favor.

Now the priest, not wanting to wait to regain favor naturally uses the gem at once. "You feel a rush of blood to your head as the power from the gem enters your body." The QL of the gem drops to almost 0 and the priests favor jumps up to 50. This is because the amount of favor used to fill the gem (not including the 5 used to cast) is doubled and given back to the priest.

Notes

Although you can vessel a gem only once, you can use it over and over until it's empty. A gem over 50ql can potentially fill your favor multiple times.

You can vessel a gem more than once if you don't fill it up completely. This is crucial when grinding channeling and getting the most casts out of a gem. For example, if you start casting Vessel at 7.5 favor you will charge the gem with approximately 5 favor. (gaining 10 favor on use, reducing the QL by 5)

  • This is ideal, however your natural favor gain will likely have the 1st tick after 7.49 fall between 7.5 an 8.1. (Favor gained during the cast will count towards the favor charged into the gem)
  • The longer you wait to cast and the more favor you have at the start of your cast will result in filling the gem with more favor.

A Priest can not store a linked priest's favor when vesseling gems over 10ql. (You store your own, but not the linked priests) However, the cost of the cast (5 Favor) will be taken from the linked priest. This can be helpful when vesseling many gems that are less than 10QL, giving a larger favor pool to pull from.
