Faith and Black Magic

[Callen200]

Im going to be entirely blunt when i say this i saw the thread and wanted to voice my opinion, My character is a happy person.. well in a nutshell over the years apparently their was a deity who is all about love and kindness

fast forward and im praying to my friends for one single faith and its fine.. honestly the first tier of faith is kinda Meh.. +5 mana is kinda... funny but lets roll with it, now the meat of the tree is when you unlock priest.

sure you get santify that gives +5 occult defense might help in a pinch and then you have blessing.. again as someone already said, empower is the ONLY useful thing to click here.. granted makes you -10 vit down the drain for a year and giving the other a +10 vit, really beefs up your friends and warriors before a war

now what about about baptize? ... i spend faith and allow you to be a low tier faith.. cool.. im loosing faith and gaining none in return if i recall, yet  holding the black book and signing it gives the holder five.. for just.. holding out a book..

honestly faith should like they mentioned have a way to place a barrier on a user so if they try to sign their soul away it REPELLS THEM and sorta ACTUALLY protects them, now raidiance is a sorta grind to unlock but the Age DR is amazing.. really next level sorta game changer.., champion is still bugged if i remember

and shuldering burdens is a good way to get rid of a warriors perms, but faith kinda locks you into a.. support class if i knew this going into faith.. i woulda skipped it TBH, the black book teaches you dreamwalking, telepathy, potions, cool skills,

what do i pay to get these cool skills: get beat up or beat people up.. its a win/win situation..

my character sold their soul and got it back years later and when i went to misfortune and got it back.. i had 12 essence just sitting in the back and all i did was get beat up.. (im a bad verber ok) and remember i never went to a sabbath.. so that was just by me getting beat up and attacked,

the fact that i didn't know what faith had in store VS the book.. yes IC she wanted her soul back.. but looking at the skills VS skills.. you are going to get in fights REGARDLESS so either way you would be gaining essence.. sometimes i wish you could use telepathy with faith or some cool stuff but maybe thats just me.. i have not played since.. E2 really and this is my first ever time playing faith and its.... very...

support.. sometimes you wish you can prayer yourself, after all you are speaking to your deity.. don't see why they can't enlighten you.. once your character gets old.. you can't Age DR yourself pretty sure, so either you gotta find someone willing to bless you with that anti Age DR radiance prayer.. or just continue to empower people and prayer and buff others while you turn old and gray.

faith to me feels extremely supportive and kinda.. lackluster, honestly renaming items with oath is fun.. makes unique cool items.. but other than that.. the black book has so much Pluses going for it.. i kinda don't know if ide ever make another character and willingly go into faith.. knowing whats in store for me.

TLDR: pray, oath, bless my allies, and protect them from occult from time to time, rinse repeat until radiance tier
