Description

Putting an item in an altar and right-clicking the altar will give the option to "sacrifice". Items can be sacrificed in an altar representing the god you are following and has several beneficial effects that depend on what you sacrifice and how much. Sacrificing an item will remove it from the world so apart from sacrificing in order to gain any of the beneficial effects it's used in order to get rid of junk.

Requirements:

  • Follower of a god, with at least 10 faith

Effects

Sacrificing may yield:

  • Favor gain
  • Healing of wounds
  • Alignment gain
  • Potion
  • Refill of Stamina, Nutrition, Food and Water
  • Skill gain

If your Favor is already full you will start increasing Deed Faith bonus instead. See Faith bonuses for details

Favor

As mentioned previously sacrificing items may yield a number of various effects, favor gain being one of them. The amount of favor you gain from sacrificing an item depends on what their value is. Items typically have a "get price" that you can see when right-clicking them in your inventory. That number along with the item type and its QL can be used to determine how much favor it will yield when sacrificed. See Base Price for details.

Double favor items

Some items have a religion specific double favor gain. That means that if you sacrifice your specific double favor item you'll get twice as much favor as the item is worth. For example: If a Vynora priest sacrifices a door lock it gets x amount of favor but if a Magranon priest sacrifices the same door lock it gets 2x the amount.

(note: Tested with rare version too)

Healing of wounds

When sacrificing items of high value the gods might heal your wounds. How much is healed depends on the value of the sacrificed items (note: more tests needed unless results of this exists elsewhere on the wiki already)

Alignment gain

Sacrificing items that have a "get price" value of at least 50 copper will increase your alignment. See Alignment for details.

Potion

A potion might be awarded when sacrificing items that add up to a high value. The potion will end up inside your intentory.

Refill of Stamina, Nutrition, Food and Water and Skill gain

Sacrificing any of the rare item kinds will refill the stamina, food and water bars in the same fashion as the Path of Love ability Refresh. Rare items work exactly as the Refresh spell while supreme and fantastic abilities grant you a tick in a random skill.

The rare items need to be of full weight in order to give the bonus, i.e. a rare log that weighs 24kgs will refill the bars but a log that weighs 17kgs will not.

Rare Items

Notes

  • Keys can only be sacrificed if the lock they belong to has already been destroyed. The lock must therefore be sacrificed before the key is (sometimes you can sacrifice them at the same time because the lock is registered by the server before the key is).
  • To be able to sacrifice an item it must fit in the altar. If you are sacrificing to get rid of the item you can try using a trash heap.
  • Sacrificing creatures for a mission is done with a sacrificial knife close to the altar belonging to your deity. You do not have to put the dead animal inside the altar.
  • Sacrificing 10 items one at a time will give the same amount of favor as sacrificing all 10 at once. The items are registered individually and not as part of a unit.
