Main / Religion / Faith

Description

Faith gives priests the ability to cast spells at certain levels - see the information on each god for more information on these spells.

You gain faith (and some favor) by praying at altars after converting to a religion. The maximum amount of favor you can get while praying is equal to your current level of faith. You can gain faith 5 times per real-life day, but you must leave 20 minutes between these prayers. Any prayers in between these 5 prayers will not raise your faith but will get your prayer skill up.

You cannot raise faith above 30 without becoming a priest.

At 30 faith you may travel to the Altar of Three(WL) or the Bone Altar(BL) (depending which of the Gods you follow) and become a priest of your god. If you're on the Freedom server, you'll need to find a priest from your religion with 40 faith to perform a ritual for you in order to become a priest yourself.

At 50 faith you can become a champion (this does not exist on the Freedom server). See the champion page for the other requirements.
