*In a single, real-life, 24-hour day, a player may gain up to a maximum of 5 faith.
*Sermons also indicate how much praying is required until the chosen god's ritual ([[Ritual of the Sun]], [[Rite of Spring]], [[Holy Crop]], or [[Rite of Death]]) is ready to be performed.
Add Silver shop
*To gain faith (and also [[favor]]), a player can [[praying|pray]] at an [[altar]]. In order to do this, however, one must first choose and [[convert]] to a [[religion]].
*Praying may take place in back-to-back sessions, but a 20-minute cool-down period is needed between prayers in order for each subsequent prayer to count toward further faith skill gain, up to five times per day. *While additional prayer attempts between these cool-down periods will not raise faith, they will increase the player's prayer skill. If faith is not gained from a prayer, the action will not be counted against the five prayer per day limit. This scenario occurs when praying as non-[[Account Typestypes|premium]].
==Faith-Based Abilities==
As a player gains faith along their religious journey, they can expect to also discover new, faith-based abilities. The following are some but not all of those reported abilities:
- At 10 faith, it becomes possible to [[Favor#Sacrificing|sacrifice]] at altars and to [[Exorcism|desecrate]] altars.
- At 20 faith, god-specific bonuses become available. ([[Vynora]]-Small Exp. gain / [[Fo]]-Healing bonus / [[Magranon]]-Fight skill bonus / [[Libila]]--Fight skill bonus)
- At 30 faith, it becomes possible to become a priest of your chosen god. For additional information on the process of achieving such priesthood at this point, see [[priest]]. At 30 faith, it also becomes possible to receive the rewards granted by global spell casts.
- At 40 faith, it becomes possible to identify to which god an item was blessed: examining a blessed item will have "It bears an aura of <god>" in its description.
- At 50 faith, one can become a champion of their chosen god. For more detailed information on championhood, see [[champion]].
==Additional Notes==
*Without becoming a priest, it is not possible to raise faith above 30.
*Faith gained on sermon is affected by altar rarity. (+1% for rare, +2% for supreme, +3% for fantastic).
*Faith can be lost when going Unfaithful and performing actions your deity does not approve of. The faith loss occurs even if the action is cancelled before it is completed.
==Sermons==
'''Procedure'''
*To hold a sermon, activate a [[statuette]], '''right click''' an altar, and select '''Preach'''.*A valid listener is a [[premium]] player of the same [[kingdom]] and of any religion, who is within 5 4 tiles of the one giving the sermon (being mounted or on foot within this distance does not matter; being embarked on any type of vehicle or , cart, however, invalidates the listener). Listeners are allowed to sit. They must also have not gained or lost any [[alignment]] within the past 30 minutes. If the player is already at maximum alignment, the alignment change might not be visible, but will still invalidate the listener. Note that listening to a sermon will always result in an alignment change.
*The minimum number of listeners for faith-gain to take place is 4. At a normal altar the priest successfully holding a sermon gains 0.02 faith per valid listener. Faith bonus for altar rarity is an extra 1% for rare, 2% for supreme, and 3% for fantastic.
*The priest giving the sermon does not count as a listener.
*Sermons have a three -hour cool-down cooldown period for the sermon-giver, and within this time, the player cannot give another sermon. Within this cool-down period, however, the same preacher can effectively serve as a listener in another priest's sermon.
*Note: if you did not gain at least 0.12 faith from the sermon itself, there were not enough valid listeners present to reset your prayer counter.
'''Additional Priest Benefits'''
*Sermons reset the prayer counter for the preacher if at least 6 valid listeners attended. This counts *Sermons also indicate how much praying is required until the chosen god's ritual ([[Ritual of the sun]], [[Rite of spring]], [[Holy crop]], or [[Rite of death]]) is ready to be performed. '''Holy sites''' Players can receive a map of a [[Holy site]] from giving sermons, but only on those actions that could possibly give faith. ==Faith swap==Priests may swap their faith to another god by purchasing a Faith swap token from the [[Silver shop]] for Freedom 40 [[Silver coin]]s or the [[Loyalty program|Marks shop]] for 27000 Marks. *This bypasses the 7 day cooldown period that generally applies on PVE serversand immediately changes the priest to another faith. **If on a PVP server, changing faiths will be subject to the [[Convert#Changing_Kingdom|kingdom change cooldown period]]. Preachers *This purchase does NOT give a token, but is used by right-clicking on Epic servers do not get this benefitan altar and selecting 'Swap faith'.
