God Favour

2010-05-09T17:43:37Z

Thev0x: /* Random reward for getting a god's favour */

==How to get Favour==
Favour is obtained by donating an amount of your geld to a god on the Altar of Darkness, found in the [[Black Market]].

You need to donate a significant amount to stand a chance.
* Minimum is 10% of your total geld. Total geld includes all of your geld temporarily stored on the Black Market in the form of bids.

On top of that,
* the minimum for Beta/Blitz server (1 turn/5 min) is 20,000,000,
* the minimum for Guild/Solo/ArchWar server (1 turn/7-8 min) is 15,000,000,
* the minimum for Arch server (1 turn/12 min) is 10,000,000.
* You need to have spent at least 300 turns (all servers, no trial-and-error reincarnating/rushing).

If the above conditions are satisfied, you have a 50% chance to receive Favoured status.

==Standard Favour Effects==

Each god has a standard favour effect that lasts for 48 hours.
* Nature gives......... +10% geld generation by farms/towns and pop income
* Sun gives............. +3% accuracy in battles
* Moon gives........... +5%/+10% without/with oversummoning node m.p. generation
* Magic gives.......... +20 SL and decreases casting cost by 10%
* Science gives......... Doubled item generation[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22185 (UBB)]. Especially useful during research when Guilds are plentiful.
:::::: Grants item generation abilities even if you have no guilds.
:::::: +10% increased yields when using items (like the [[skills|skill]] [[Legendary Artificer]]).
:::::: ''Note:'' Science's protection of items such as [[Magical Compass]], [[Minor Indulgence]], and [[Unique Items|Uniques]], is not in any way linked to favor status.
* Satan gives............ lowered unit upkeep by 10% (Mana Upkeep only lowered by 5%)
* Lucifer gives........... +10% summoning yields/attack power (primary + counter, perhaps also secondary attack)

===Additional Rewards===
On top of that, you also randomly gain one of the following:(chances estimated)
* If you have harmful enchantments on your kingdom, gods may cast [[Indulgence of God]] and remove them (unknown chance of success) [http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=25378 (UBB)].
* 45% chance of a random enchantment for 15 turns.
** You pay '''no upkeep''' for this enchantment.
** The enchantment is cast as if it was on-color, and at godly [[spell level]] (777).
** God enchantment effects stack on top of your own enchantments.
** Possible enchantments are not linked to your color. They include:
*** {{blue}} Phantasm: [[Concentration]], [[Mind Bar]], [[Hallucination]],
*** {{green}} Verdant: [[Nature's Lore]], [[Weather Summoning]], [[Sunray]],
*** {{white}} Ascendant: [[Love and Peace]], [[Protection from Evil]], [[Resist Elements]]
*** {{black}} Nether: [[Black Sabbath]], [[Shroud of Darkness]],
*** {{plain}} Plain: [[Invigorate]] (replacing {{white}} [[The Holy Light]])
** It is wise to cast up your own enchantments '''before''' donating, if you are going for maximum effect (e.g. super-[[Concentration]]), as it is a waste to use the 15 godly-enchanted turns just for the casting of your own enchantments.
* 20% chance to receive one [[items|lesser item]].
* 15% chance to receive a small [[mana|m.p.]] refill, comparable to a[[Mana Crystal]].
* 10% chance that a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army.
* 5% chance to receive a random [[heroes|hero]] of up to level 17.
* 5% chance that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you.
* There is a small chance that the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero.

===Jealousy table===

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below. Safe combination of certain gods used to be possible, though this is no longer the case.

<table>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>'''Nature'''</td>
<td>'''Sun'''</td>
<td>'''Moon'''</td>
<td>'''Magic'''</td>

===Jealousy remarks===
* The table dates back to [[History_of_Terra|Archmage]] and may no longer be completely accurate.
* It is harder to get favour right after recovering from disfavour. When you are in Hatred status and you pay it off, do not try to get a second god's favour immediately after, as it will result in jealousy again.
* Nature is the god on its own, Sun-Moon, Science-Magic and Satan-Lucifer can be seen as each other's opposites. Their combinations are the hardest to achieve.
* Certain gods have lessened chances of becoming jealous based on the order of the donation received. Known beneficial orders include:
** Nature, Magic
** Magic, Moon

= Disfavour and Hatred status =
You receive Disfavour and Hatred status from making gods jealous and donating puny 1 geld amounts.
* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency.
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency. For example, Destroy Artifacts cast under Hatred has resulted in the loss of 50 items.
* [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

===Hero testing===
When a god turns from favour to disfavour, one of your heroes may be tested by a God.
The possible outcomes are: your hero gains one level, your hero stays, your hero loses a set amount of experience, or your hero dies. If your hero is very low level when it loses experience, its level may decrease by two.

:: ''Example: Two levels are lost.''
<center>
Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing tested your hero Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker. 
Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker terribly failed Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing's test. 
 
Name Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker Level 6 (Xp: 16048)

</center>

= Most Favoured =
In order to obtain Most Favoured status, you must:
* Be a Top 10 donator.
* Donate almost all of your geld (over 90%).
* Donate at least ten times the minimum donation amount.
* Have special kinds of things in your army (Race/Colour/Attacktype units) - differs per god,
* Have special kinds of things in your country / play style - differs per god,
** For Science, it is said that you need at least 1000 lesser items and 1 unique (e.g. a [[Holy Grail]]).
** For Nature, it is said that you have to be peaceful, without attacking other mages for days.
* Have special kind of relationship with another god (e.g. Hatred with at least one other god, all neutral, etc) - differs per god

If all of the above conditions are satisfied, then you have a 50%(''unverified'') chance to become Most Favoured. Beware, though: the requirements for Most Favoured sometimes change.

=== Jealousy of other gods ===
* Other gods may become annoyed once Most Favoured status is attained.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''favoured''' status gods may get jealous (like when getting normal Favour) and change status.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''neutral''' status gods may get jealous (''unlike'' when getting normal Favour).
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''disfavoured''' or '''hatred''' status gods may get jealous.

===Benefits===
Most Favoured status brings double what normal favour brings, for double the time (96 hours). There are additional benefits which are specific to each god:

* Nature: [[Plant Growth]] or [[Nature's Favor]] or [[Nature's Lore]] level 777 for 300 turns (with upkeep).
* Sun: 100 [[Red Dragon]]s (with upkeep).
* Moon: Full mana charge and 70,000 [[werewolf|werewolves]] (with upkeep).
* Magic: 777 [[Concentration]] for 400 turns, 500 nodes.
* Science: Random [[Unique Items|unique item]] (including Holy Grails).
* Satan: 50 turns of [[Contract of the Soul|CoS]] (no upkeep, no Devil Prince).
* Lucifer: a level 18-24 random [[:Category:Heroes|hero]] (with upkeep).

===Tactics===
*Pull off a Moon Most Favoured at Armageddon, have the biggest power boost with no turns spent possible, and secure yourself a surprise Hall of Immortals spot that way. However, this only gives 13.3 million [[Net Power]].
*Before attempting Science Most Favoured, acquire all the Holy Grails and put them on the market to sell. Keep one in your inventory if you have no other unique (because Science requires a unique in your inventory to grant Most Favoured). This way, you can be assured that Science will not grant you a Holy Grail as a reward.

= Patron Status =
In early 2010, a new type of status with the gods was enabled across all servers. Patron status has thus far only been attained by one mage, and the exact method has not been released. You may find vague hints on how to obtain Patron status through a specific god's encyclopedia page.

===Benefits===
*"Permanent" Patron status from the god (Patron bonus ~ 150% favor bonus).
*'Favor' boon every 48hrs - Works like favor loss.
*Patron status remains until patron limit is exceeded, then lowest donor is removed.
*Jealousy will not affect the patron god (can't be disfavored by patron god).

===Penalties===
*It becomes more difficult to gain favor from other gods (increased donation requirement, smaller % chance to succeed).
*You cannot donate to the patron god while a patron.

===Gaining Patron Status===
*Neutral -> Patron status donation
*Donate solely to patron god for a length of time.
*Be a top 10 donor at the time of the patron donation.
*Donate x * favor minimum (or x% total geld), whichever is higher.
*Special hidden requirements that vary by god (easier than MF requirements).

===Losing Patron Status===
Patron status will be lost if any of the following conditions are met:
*You are no longer Top 10 donor.
*When patron limit is exceeded, the lowest donor is removed.
*If Most Favored is achieved, Patron status is lost.

===Other Details===
*You can only have 1 Patron god at a time.
*Patron status can be achieved again if lost.
*Most Favored status can be attempted for the Patron god every 48 hours (you must still meet the MF requirements, but you can donate from patron->most favored)
*Most Favored status for a god other than the patron god will result in loss of patron status.

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below. Safe combination of certain gods used to be possible, though this is no longer the case.

===Jealousy remarks===
* The table dates back to [[History_of_Terra|Archmage]] and may no longer be completely accurate.
* It is harder to get favour right after recovering from disfavour. When you are in Hatred status and you pay it off, do not try to get a second god's favour immediately after, as it will result in jealousy again.
* Nature is the god on its own, Sun-Moon, Science-Magic and Satan-Lucifer can be seen as each other's opposites. Their combinations are the hardest to achieve.
* Certain gods have lessened chances of becoming jealous based on the order of the donation received. Known beneficial orders include:
** Nature, Magic
** Magic, Moon

= Disfavour and Hatred status =
You receive Disfavour and Hatred status from making gods jealous and donating puny 1 geld amounts.
* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency.
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency. For example, Destroy Artifacts cast under Hatred has resulted in the loss of 50 items.
* [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

===Hero testing===
When a god turns from favour to disfavour, one of your heroes may be tested by a God.
The possible outcomes are: your hero gains one level, your hero stays, your hero loses a set amount of experience, or your hero dies. If your hero is very low level when it loses experience, its level may decrease by two.

:: ''Example: Two levels are lost.''

= Most Favoured =
In order to obtain Most Favoured status, you must:
* Be a Top 10 donator.
* Donate almost all of your geld (over 90%).
* Donate at least ten times the minimum donation amount.
* Have special kinds of things in your army (Race/Colour/Attacktype units) - differs per god,
* Have special kinds of things in your country / play style - differs per god,
** For Science, it is said that you need at least 1000 lesser items and 1 unique (e.g. a [[Holy Grail]]).
** For Nature, it is said that you have to be peaceful, without attacking other mages for days.
* Have special kind of relationship with another god (e.g. Hatred with at least one other god, all neutral, etc) - differs per god

If all of the above conditions are satisfied, then you have a 50%(''unverified'') chance to become Most Favoured. Beware, though: the requirements for Most Favoured sometimes change.

=== Jealousy of other gods ===
* Other gods may become annoyed once Most Favoured status is attained.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''favoured''' status gods may get jealous (like when getting normal Favour) and change status.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''neutral''' status gods may get jealous (''unlike'' when getting normal Favour).
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''disfavoured''' or '''hatred''' status gods may get jealous.

===Benefits===
Most Favoured status brings double what normal favour brings, for double the time (96 hours). There are additional benefits which are specific to each god:

* Nature: [[Plant Growth]] or [[Nature's Favor]] or [[Nature's Lore]] level 777 for 300 turns (with upkeep).
* Sun: 100 [[Red Dragon]]s (with upkeep).
* Moon: Full mana charge and 70,000 [[werewolf|werewolves]] (with upkeep).
* Magic: 777 [[Concentration]] for 400 turns, 500 nodes.
* Science: Random [[Unique Items|unique item]] (including Holy Grails).
* Satan: 50 turns of [[Contract of the Soul|CoS]] (no upkeep, no Devil Prince).
* Lucifer: a level 18-24 random [[:Category:Heroes|hero]] (with upkeep).

===Tactics===
*Pull off a Moon Most Favoured at Armageddon, have the biggest power boost with no turns spent possible, and secure yourself a surprise Hall of Immortals spot that way. However, this only gives 13.3 million [[Net Power]].
*Before attempting Science Most Favoured, acquire all the Holy Grails and put them on the market to sell. Keep one in your inventory if you have no other unique (because Science requires a unique in your inventory to grant Most Favoured). This way, you can be assured that Science will not grant you a Holy Grail as a reward.

= Patron Status =
In early 2010, a new type of status with the gods was enabled across all servers. Patron status has thus far only been attained by one mage, and the exact method has not been released. You may find vague hints on how to obtain Patron status through a specific god's encyclopedia page.

===Benefits===
*"Permanent" Patron status from the god (Patron bonus ~ 150% favor bonus).
*'Favor' boon every 48hrs - Works like favor loss.
*Patron status remains until patron limit is exceeded, then lowest donor is removed.
*Jealousy will not affect the patron god (can't be disfavored by patron god).

===Penalties===
*It becomes more difficult to gain favor from other gods (increased donation requirement, smaller % chance to succeed).
*You cannot donate to the patron god while a patron.

===Gaining Patron Status===
*Neutral -> Patron status donation
*Donate solely to patron god for a length of time.
*Be a top 10 donor at the time of the patron donation.
*Donate x * favor minimum (or x% total geld), whichever is higher.
*Special hidden requirements that vary by god (easier than MF requirements).

===Losing Patron Status===
Patron status will be lost if any of the following conditions are met:
*You are no longer Top 10 donor.
*When patron limit is exceeded, the lowest donor is removed.
*If Most Favored is achieved, Patron status is lost.

===Other Details===
*You can only have 1 Patron god at a time.
*Patron status can be achieved again if lost.
*Most Favored status can be attempted for the Patron god every 48 hours (you must still meet the MF requirements, but you can donate from patron->most favored)
*Most Favored status for a god other than the patron god will result in loss of patron status.

Thev0x: /* Most Favoured & Patron Status */

==disfavor table wrong==
Example of having Moon and getting Magic causing disfavor with moon:
<blockquote>
You offered 50,717,151 gold to Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing.
Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing seems to be very pleased by your generous donation.
You feel your magical powers increase.
Your action has gained you the favour of Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing.
Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing granted you the lesser artifact Sage Stone!
You sense a heavenly conflict between Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing and Moon, the Light in the Night.
You hear roar in anger. You are now disfavoured by Moon, the Light in the Night.
Moon, the Light in the Night casted Call Lightning on you!
</blockquote>

That's because there is still a 25% chance of getting hit with a conflict like you did. This is all in the chart, please read it again.

== Science favour bonus ==

I believe that the Science favour bonus, is 10% increase in item generation. The problem is that there are a lot of factors that affect item generation, eg current number of items, number of guilds as well as % of guilds. As your number of items increases, then the generation factor from guilds decreases to the point where the 10% bonus becomes unnoticeable. However, if you have science favour and no guilds then on average you get one item every 20 turns on blitz, even at a high item count. This is where science favour is, in my opinion, most advantageous.

== Favour Bonus Percentage ==
I think the info that its 5% Luck and 5% Zealots is not correct.
I recieved luck MUCH more often than zealots
   
Response: Maybe you were just lucky? (I tend to get items and mana a lot personally, and I tend to get heroes more than fanatics or luck combined)

=Most Favoured & Patron Status=
Any word on how to get most favored status? So far, we got pretty vague responses; is there anyone open enough to share or drop us some hints? As for patron, its probably not implemented yet, right?

-Groentje: Patron is not implemented indeed. > Feb 2010 on Beta. Sun, Father of the Sky Patron Status: Azroen (#321)
- The in-game encyclopedia and the altar have descriptions for each god. They give a bit of a hint.
Those who know won't tell. My best guess is find an old Dissention member with loose lips.

-From what I may recall, Luci requires Angels in stacking. Nature is 72hrs(or maybe 48) of no attacks (defends okay). Possibly trees or animals in stack for Nature, too. I also heard rumor the minimum for Most Favored is near 500m. A lot of them usually suggest donating ALL your gold. MF is very powerful so read the God description and go all out for what it says, don't take anything for change. Sun is seen as a Paladin, so maybe try some knights in your army? He also gives you Dragons, so try adding dragons to your stacks. They are cheap from BM for any color.

I added a section on Patron status based on what was posted last year in the announcements section. I'm also rolling a mage on Solo right now simply to test out different MF/Patron requirements and post them here. [[User:Thev0x|Vox]] 19:34, 9 May 2010 (CEST)

God Favour

2010-05-09T05:19:32Z

Thev0x:

==How to get Favour==
Favour is obtained by donating an amount of your geld to a god on the Altar of Darkness, found in the [[Black Market]].

You need to donate a significant amount to stand a chance.
* Minimum is 10% of your total geld. Total geld includes all of your geld temporarily stored on the Black Market in the form of bids.

On top of that,
* the minimum for Beta/Blitz server (1 turn/5 min) is 20,000,000,
* the minimum for Guild/Solo/ArchWar server (1 turn/7-8 min) is 15,000,000,
* the minimum for Arch server (1 turn/12 min) is 10,000,000.
* You need to have spent at least 300 turns (all servers, no trial-and-error reincarnating/rushing).

If the above conditions are satisfied, you have a 50% chance to receive Favoured status.

==Standard Favour Effects==

Each god has a standard favour effect that lasts for 48 hours.
* Nature gives......... +10% geld generation by farms/towns and pop income
* Sun gives............. +3% accuracy in battles
* Moon gives........... +5%/+10% without/with oversummoning node m.p. generation
* Magic gives.......... +20 SL and decreases casting cost by 10%
* Science gives......... Doubled item generation[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22185 (UBB)]. Especially useful during research, when [[Guilds]] are the highest percentage of your land.
:::::: +10% increased yields when using items (like the [[skills|skill]] [[Legendary Artificer]]).
:::::: ''Note:'' Science's protection of items such as [[Magical Compass]], [[Minor Indulgence]], and [[Unique Items|Uniques]], is not in any way linked to favor status
* Satan gives............ lowered unit upkeep by 10% (Mana Upkeep only lowered by 5%)
* Lucifer gives........... +10% summoning yields/attack power (primary + counter, perhaps also secondary attack)

===Random reward for getting a god's favour===
On top of that, you also randomly gain one of the following:(chances estimated)
* If you have harmful enchantments on your kingdom, gods may cast [[Indulgence of God]] and remove them (unknown chance of success) [http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=25378 (UBB)].
* 45% chance of a random enchantment for 15 turns.
** You pay '''no upkeep''' for this enchantment.
** The enchantment is cast as if it was on-color, and at godly [[spell level]] (777).
** God enchantment effects stack on top of your own enchantments.
** Possible enchantments are not linked to your color. They include:
*** {{blue}} Phantasm: [[Concentration]], [[Mind Bar]], [[Hallucination]],
*** {{green}} Verdant: [[Nature's Lore]], [[Weather Summoning]], [[Sunray]],
*** {{white}} Ascendant: [[Love and Peace]], [[Protection from Evil]], [[Resist Elements]]
*** {{black}} Nether: [[Black Sabbath]], [[Shroud of Darkness]],
*** {{plain}} Plain: [[Invigorate]] (replacing {{white}} [[The Holy Light]])
** It is wise to cast up your own enchantments '''before''' donating, if you are going for maximum effect (e.g. super-[[Concentration]]), as it is a waste to use the 15 godly-enchanted turns just for the casting of your own enchantments.
* 20% chance to receive one [[items|lesser item]].
* 15% chance to receive a small [[mana|m.p.]] refill, comparable to a[[Mana Crystal]].
* 10% chance that a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army.
* 5% chance to receive a random [[heroes|hero]] of up to level 17.
* 5% chance that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you.
* There is a small chance that the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero.

===Jealousy table===

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below. Safe combination of certain gods used to be possible, though this is no longer the case.

===Jealousy remarks===
* The table dates back to [[History_of_Terra|Archmage]] and may no longer be completely accurate.
* It is harder to get favour right after recovering from disfavour. When you are in Hatred status and you pay it off, do not try to get a second god's favour immediately after, as it will result in jealousy again.
* Nature is the god on its own, Sun-Moon, Science-Magic and Satan-Lucifer can be seen as each other's opposites. Their combinations are the hardest to achieve.
* Certain gods have lessened chances of becoming jealous based on the order of the donation received. Known beneficial orders include:
** Nature, Magic
** Magic, Moon

= Disfavour and Hatred status =
You receive Disfavour and Hatred status from making gods jealous and donating puny 1 geld amounts.
* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency.
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]]
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency. For example, Destroy Artifacts cast under Hatred has resulted in the loss of 50 items.
* [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

= Hero testing =
When a god turns from favour to disfavour, one of your heroes may be tested by a God.
The possible outcomes are: your hero gains one level, your hero stays, your hero loses a set amount of experience, or your hero dies. If your hero is very low level when it loses experience, its level may decrease by two.

:: ''Example: Two levels are lost.''

Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing tested your hero Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker. 
Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker terribly failed Magic, the Mother of All and Nothing's test. 
 
Name Vandergaard of Faerun Berserker Level 6 (Xp: 16048)

</center>

= Most Favoured =
In order to obtain Most Favoured status, you must:
* Be a Top 10 donator.
* Donate almost all of your geld (over 90%).
* Donate at least ten times the minimum donation amount.
* Have special kinds of things in your army (Race/Colour/Attacktype units) - differs per god,
* Have special kinds of things in your country / play style - differs per god,
** For Science, it is said that you need at least 1000 lesser items and 1 unique (e.g. a [[Holy Grail]]).
** For Nature, it is said that you have to be peaceful, without attacking other mages for days.
* Have special kind of relationship with another god (e.g. Hatred with at least one other god, all neutral, etc) - differs per god

If all of the above conditions are satisfied, then you have a 50%(''unverified'') chance to become Most Favoured. Beware, though: the requirements for Most Favoured sometimes change.

=== Jealousy of other gods ===
* Other gods may become annoyed once Most Favoured status is attained.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''favoured''' status gods may get jealous (like when getting normal Favour) and change status.
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''neutral''' status gods may get jealous (''unlike'' when getting normal Favour).
* Once becoming Most Favoured, other '''disfavoured''' or '''hatred''' status gods may get jealous.

== Benefits ==
Most Favoured status brings double what normal favour brings, for double the time (96 hours). There are additional benefits which are specific to each god:

* Nature: [[Plant Growth]] or [[Nature's Favor]] or [[Nature's Lore]] level 777 for 300 turns (with upkeep).
* Sun: 100 [[Red Dragon]]s (with upkeep).
* Moon: Full mana charge and 70,000 [[werewolf|werewolves]] (with upkeep).
* Magic: 777 [[Concentration]] for 400 turns, 500 nodes.
* Science: Random [[Unique Items|unique item]] (including Holy Grails).
* Satan: 50 turns of [[Contract of the Soul|CoS]] (no upkeep, no Devil Prince).
* Lucifer: a level 18-24 random [[:Category:Heroes|hero]] (with upkeep).

===Tactics===
Pull off a Moon Most Favoured at Armageddon, have the biggest power boost with no turns spent possible, and secure yourself a surprise Hall of Immortals spot that way. However, this only gives 13.3 million [[Net Power]].
[[Category:guides]]

= Patron Status =
In early 2010, a new type of status with the gods was enabled across all servers. Patron status has thus far only been attained by one mage, and the exact method has not been released. You may find vague hints on how to obtain Patron status through a specific god's encyclopedia page.

===Benefits===
*"Permanent" Patron status from the god (Patron bonus ~ 150% favor bonus).
*'Favor' boon every 48hrs - Works like favor loss.
*Patron status remains until patron limit is exceeded, then lowest donor is removed.
*Jealousy will not affect the patron god (can't be disfavored by patron god).

===Penalties===
*It becomes more difficult to gain favor from other gods (increased donation requirement, smaller % chance to succeed).
*You cannot donate to the patron god while a patron.

===Gaining Patron Status===
*Neutral -> Patron status donation
*Donate solely to patron god for a length of time.
*Be a top 10 donor at the time of the patron donation.
*Donate x * favor minimum (or x% total geld), whichever is higher.
*Special hidden requirements that vary by god (easier than MF requirements).

===Losing Patron Status===
Patron status will be lost if any of the following conditions are met:
*You are no longer Top 10 donor.
*When patron limit is exceeded, the lowest donor is removed.
*If Most Favored is achieved, Patron status is lost.

===Other Details===
*You can only have 1 Patron god at a time.
*Patron status can be achieved again if lost.
*Most Favored status can be attempted for the Patron god every 48 hours (you must still meet the MF requirements, but you can donate from patron->most favored)
*Most Favored status for a god other than the patron god will result in loss of patron status.

God Favour

2010-05-09T04:29:34Z

Thev0x: More grammatical and structural stuff.

==How to get Favour==
Favour is obtained by donating an amount of your geld on the Altar of Darkness, found in the [[Black Market]].

You need to donate a significant amount to stand a chance.
* Minimum is 10% of your total geld. Total geld includes all of your geld temporarily stored on the Black Market in the form of bids.

On top of that,
* the minimum for Beta/Blitz server (1 turn/5 min) is 20,000,000,
* the minimum for Guild/Solo/ArchWar server (1 turn/7-8 min) is 15,000,000,
* the minimum for Arch server (1 turn/12 min) is 10,000,000.
* You need to have spent at least 300 turns (all servers, no trial-and-error reincarnating/rushing).

If the above conditions are satisfied, you have a 50% chance to receive Favoured status.

==Standard Favour Effects==

Each god has a standard favour effect that lasts for 48 hours.
* Nature gives......... +10% geld generation by farms/towns and pop income
* Sun gives............. +3% accuracy in battles
* Moon gives........... +5%/+10% without/with oversummoning node m.p. generation
* Magic gives.......... +20 SL and decreases casting cost by 10%
* Science gives......... Doubled item generation[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22185 (UBB)]. Especially useful during research, when [[Guilds]] are the highest percentage of your land.
:::::: +10% increased yields when using items (like the [[skills|skill]] [[Legendary Artificer]]).
:::::: ''Note:'' Science's protection of items such as [[Magical Compass]], [[Minor Indulgence]], and [[Unique Items|Uniques]], is not in any way linked to favor status
* Satan gives............ lowered unit upkeep by 10% (Mana Upkeep only lowered by 5%)
* Lucifer gives........... +10% summoning yields/attack power (primary + counter, perhaps also secondary attack)

===Random reward for getting a god's favour===
On top of that, you also randomly gain one of the following(chances estimated)</sup):
* If you have harmful enchantments on your kingdom, gods may cast [[Indulgence of God]] and remove them (unknown chance of success) [http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=25378 (UBB)].
* 45% chance of a random enchantment for 15 turns.
** You pay '''no upkeep''' for this enchantment.
** The enchantment is cast as if it was on-color, and at godly [[spell level]] (777).
** God enchantment effects stack on top of your own enchantments.
** Possible enchantments are not linked to your color. They include:
*** {{blue}} Phantasm: [[Concentration]], [[Mind Bar]], [[Hallucination]],
*** {{green}} Verdant: [[Nature's Lore]], [[Weather Summoning]], [[Sunray]],
*** {{white}} Ascendant: [[Love and Peace]], [[Protection from Evil]], [[Resist Elements]]
*** {{black}} Nether: [[Black Sabbath]], [[Shroud of Darkness]],
*** {{plain}} Plain: [[Invigorate]] (replacing {{white}} [[The Holy Light]])
** It is wise to cast up your own enchantments '''before''' donating, if you are going for maximum effect (e.g. super-[[Concentration]]), as it is a waste to use the 15 godly-enchanted turns just for the casting of your own enchantments.
* 20% chance to receive one [[items|lesser item]].
* 15% chance to receive a small [[mana|m.p.]] refill, comparable to a[[Mana Crystal]].
* 10% chance that a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army.
* 5% chance to receive a random [[heroes|hero]] of up to level 17.
* 5% chance that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you.
* There is a small chance that the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero.

===Jealousy table===

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below. Safe combination of certain gods used to be possible, though this is no longer the case.

God Favour

2010-05-09T03:56:15Z

Thev0x: Syntax corrections

==How to get Favour==
Favour is obtained by donating an amount of your geld on the Altar of Darkness, found in the [[Black Market]].

You need to donate a significant amount to stand a chance.
* Minimum is 10% of your total geld. Total geld includes all of your geld temporarily stored on the Black Market in the form of bids.

On top of that,
* the minimum for Beta/Blitz server (1 turn/5 min) is 20,000,000,
* the minimum for Guild/Solo/ArchWar Server (1 turn/7-8 min) 15,000,000,
* the minimum for Arch Server (1 turn/12 min) is 10,000,000.
* You need to have spent at least 300 turns (all servers, no trial-and-error reincarnating/rushing).

If the above is satisfied, you have a 50% chance to get that favour (i.e. bidding 20,000,000 2-3 times usually gives you favour, sometimes you get it the first time...).

==Standard Favour Effects==

Each god has a standard favour effect that lasts for 48 hours:
* Nature gives......... +10% geld generation by farms/towns and pop income
* Sun gives............. +3% accuracy in battles
* Moon gives........... +5%/+10% without/with oversummoning node m.p. generation
* Magic gives.......... +20 SL and decreases casting cost by 10%
* Science gives......... Doubled item generation[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22185 (UBB)]. Nice during research when you have a lot of guilds anyway.
:::::: +10% increased yields when using items (like the [[skills|skill]] [[Legendary Artificer]]).
:::::: ''Note:'' Science' protection of items such as [[Magical Compass]], [[Minor Indulgence]], and [[Unique Items|Uniques]], is not in any way linked to favor status
* Satan gives............ lowered unit upkeep by 10% (Mana Upkeep only lowered by 5%)
* Lucifer gives........... +10% summoning yields/attack power (primary + counter, perhaps also secondary attack)

===Random reward for getting a god's favour===
On top of that, you also gain one of the following (random):
* If you have harmful enchantments on your kingdom, gods may cast [[Indulgence of God]] and remove them (unknown chance of success) [http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=25378 (UBB)].

Subsequently:
* 45% chance on an enchantment for 15 turns
** You pay NO upkeep for this enchantment
** The enchantment is cast as if it was on-color, and at godly [[spell level]] (777).
*** Your specialty for the particular God you donated to has anything to do with chances of the type of enchantment.
** God enchantment effects stack on top of your own enchantments.
** Possible enchantments are not linked to your color. Possible enchantments include:
*** {{blue}} Phantasm: [[Concentration]], [[Mind Bar]], [[Hallucination]],
*** {{green}} Verdant: [[Nature's Lore]], [[Weather Summoning]], [[Sunray]],
*** {{white}} Ascendant: [[Love and Peace]], [[Protection from Evil]], [[Resist Elements]]
*** {{black}} Nether: [[Black Sabbath]], [[Shroud of Darkness]],
*** {{plain}} Plain: [[Invigorate]] (replacing {{white}} [[The Holy Light]])
** It is wise to cast up your own enchantments BEFORE donating, if you are going for maximum effect (e.g. super-[[Concentration]]), as it is a waste to use the 15 godly-enchanted turns just for the casting of your own enchantments.
* 5% a random [[heroes|hero]] of up to level 17
* 20% one [[items|lesser item]]
* 15% small [[mana|m.p.]] refill (kinda like what [[Mana Crystal]] does)
* 5% that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you
* 10% a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army
* x% the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero. The chances of this are very small.

(estimated chances - feel free to correct)

* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing leading to level loss
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency (Destroy Artifacts can destroy 50 items)
* A 'Super' [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death, [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

= Hero testing =
When a god turns from favour to disfavour, one of your heroes may be tested by a God.
The possible outcomes are: your hero gains one level, your hero stays, your hero loses a set amount of experience, or your hero dies. If your hero is very low level when it loses experience, its level may decrease by two.

= Most Favoured =

== Requirements ==
* You need to be a Top 10 donator.
* You need to donate almost all of your geld (over 90%).
* The amount you donate needs to be at least ten times the normal (minimum) donation amount.
* You need to have special kinds of things in your army (Race/Colour/Attacktype units) - differs per god,
* You need special kinds of things with your country / play style - differs per god,
** For Science, it is said that you need at least 1000 lesser items and 1 unique (e.g. a [[Holy Grail]]).
** For Nature, it is said that you have to be peaceful, without attacking other mages for days.
* You need a special kind of relationship with another god (e.g. Hatred with at least one other god, all neutral, etc) - differs per god
* The requirements for Most Favoured sometimes change.

* If all of the above are satisfied, then you have a 50%(''unverified'') chance to get that most favour.

=== Jealousy of other gods ===
* Other gods may become annoyed on achieving Most-Favoured status.
* On getting Most-Favoured, other FAVOUR status gods may get jealous and act (like when getting normal Favour) and change status
* On getting Most-Favoured, other NEUTRAL status gods may get jealous and act (''unlike'' when getting normal Favour)
* On getting Most-Favoured, other DISFAVOUR/HATRED status gods may get jealous and act

This can have positive effect (i.e. hero-levelling, serenity-when-wanted) but usually it is a negative effect.

== What does it bring? ==
Double what normal favour brings for double the time (48 hours)

Plus special goodies:
* Nature: [[Plant Growth]] or [[Nature's Favor]] or [[Nature's Lore]] level 777 for 300 turns (with upkeep)
* Sun: 100 [[Red Dragon]]s (with upkeep)
* Moon: Full mana charge and 70,000 [[werewolf|werewolves]] (with upkeep).
* Magic: 777 [[Concentration]] for 400 turns, 500 nodes.
* Science: Random [[Unique Items|unique item]], yes you can get Holy Grails.
* Satan: 50 turns of [[Contract of the Soul|CoS]] (no upkeep, no Devil Prince)
* Lucifer: a level 18-24 random [[:Category:Heroes|hero]] (with upkeep)

===Tactics===
Pull off a Moon Most Favoured at Armageddon, have the biggest power boost with no turns spending possible, and secure yourself a surprise Hall of Immortals spot that way. (But this would only give 13.3M power).

God Favour

2010-05-09T03:53:34Z

Thev0x:

==How to get Favour==
Favour is obtained by donating an amount of your geld on the Altar of Darkness, found in the [[Black Market]].

You need to donate a significant amount to stand a chance.
* Minimum is 10% of your total geld. Total geld includes all of your geld temporarily stored on the Black Market in the form of bids.

On top of that,
* the minimum for Beta/Blitz server (1 turn/5 min) is 20,000,000,
* the minimum for Guild/Solo/ArchWar Server (1 turn/7-8 min) 15,000,000,
* the minimum for Arch Server (1 turn/12 min) is 10,000,000.
* You need to have spent at least 300 turns (all servers, no trial-and-error reincarnating/rushing).

If the above is satisfied, you have a 50% chance to get that favour (i.e. bidding 20,000,000 2-3 times usually gives you favour, sometimes you get it the first time...).

==Standard Favour Effects==

Each god has a standard favour effect that lasts for 48 hours:
* Nature gives......... +10% geld generation by farms/towns and pop income
* Sun gives............. +3% accuracy in battles
* Moon gives........... +5%/+10% without/with oversummoning node m.p. generation
* Magic gives.......... +20 SL and decreases casting cost by 10%
* Science gives......... Doubled item generation[http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22185]. Nice during research when you have a lot of guilds anyway.
:::::: +10% increased yields when using items (like the [[skills|skill]] [[Legendary Artificer]]).
:::::: ''Note:'' Science' protection of items such as [[Magical Compass]], [[Minor Indulgence]], and [[Unique Items|Uniques]], is not in any way linked to favor status
* Satan gives............ lowered unit upkeep by 10% (Mana Upkeep only lowered by 5%)
* Lucifer gives........... +10% summoning yields/attack power (primary + counter, perhaps also secondary attack)

===Random reward for getting a god's favour===
On top of that, you also gain one of the following (random):
* If you have harmful enchantments on your kingdom, gods may cast [[Indulgence of God]] and remove them (unknown chance of success) [http://www.the-reincarnation.com/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=25378].

Subsequently:
* 45% chance on an enchantment for 15 turns
** You pay NO upkeep for this enchantment
** The enchantment is cast as if it was on-color, and at godly [[spell level]] (777).
*** Your specialty for the particular God you donated to has anything to do with chances of the type of enchantment.
** God enchantment effects stack on top of your own enchantments.
** Possible enchantments are not linked to your color. Possible enchantments include:
*** {{blue}} Phantasm: [[Concentration]], [[Mind Bar]], [[Hallucination]],
*** {{green}} Verdant: [[Nature's Lore]], [[Weather Summoning]], [[Sunray]],
*** {{white}} Ascendant: [[Love and Peace]], [[Protection from Evil]], [[Resist Elements]]
*** {{black}} Nether: [[Black Sabbath]], [[Shroud of Darkness]],
*** {{plain}} Plain: [[Invigorate]] (replacing {{white}} [[The Holy Light]])
** It is wise to cast up your own enchantments BEFORE donating, if you are going for maximum effect (e.g. super-[[Concentration]]), as it is a waste to use the 15 godly-enchanted turns just for the casting of your own enchantments.
* 5% a random [[heroes|hero]] of up to level 17
* 20% one [[items|lesser item]]
* 15% small [[mana|m.p.]] refill (kinda like what [[Mana Crystal]] does)
* 5% that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you
* 10% a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army
* x% the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero. The chances of this are very small.

(estimated chances - feel free to correct)

===Jealousy table===

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below. Safe combination of certain gods used to be possible, though this is no longer the case.

<table>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>'''Nature'''</td>
<td>'''Sun'''</td>
<td>'''Moon'''</td>
<td>'''Magic'''</td>
<td>'''Science'''</td>
<td>'''Satan'''</td>

</tr></table>

===Jealousy remarks===
* The table dates back to [[History_of_Terra|Archmage]] and may no longer be completely accurate.
* It is harder to get favour right after recovering from disfavour. When you are in Hatred status and you pay it off, do not try to get a second god's favour immediately after, as it will result in jealousy again.
* Nature is the god on its own, Sun-Moon, Science-Magic and Satan-Lucifer can be seen as each other's opposites. Their combinations are the hardest to achieve.
* Certain gods have lessened chances of becoming jealous based on the order of the donation received. Known beneficial orders include:
** Nature, Magic
** Magic, Moon

= Disfavour and Hatred status =
You receive Disfavour and Hatred status from making gods jealous and donating puny 1 geld amounts.
* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing leading to level loss
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency (Destroy Artifacts can destroy 50 items)
* A 'Super' [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death, [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

* 15% small [[mana|m.p.]] refill (kinda like what [[Mana Crystal]] does)
* 5% that the [[Luck|Star of Luck]] will shine upon you
* 10% a group of [[Fanatic]]s ('Zealots') joins your army
* x% the God will test a hero of yours. Failure brings death, success adds one level to your hero. The chances of this are very small.

===Jealousy table===
'''As of January 2007, the Moon/Lucifer God Favor combination is no longer safe.'''

It is possible to be in favoured status with multiple gods concurrently. There is an inherent risk that donating to more than one god will result in jealous backlash, outlined in the table below:

<table>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td>'''Nature'''</td>
<td>'''Sun'''</td>
<td>'''Moon'''</td>
<td>'''Magic'''</td>
<td>'''Science'''</td>
<td>'''Satan'''</td>
<td>'''Lucifer'''</td>
</tr>

<tr><td>'''Nature''' </td>
<td>--</td><td>25%</td><td>25%</td><td>50%</td><td>50%</td><td>50%</td><td>25%</td>

===Jealousy remarks===
* The table dates back to [[History_of_Terra|Archmage]] and may no longer be completely accurate.
* It is harder to get favour right after recovering from disfavour. When you are in Hatred status and you pay it off, do not try to get a second god's favour immediately after, as it will result in jealousy again.
* Nature is the god on its own, Sun-Moon, Science-Magic and Satan-Lucifer can be seen as each other's opposites. Their combinations are the hardest to achieve.
* Certain gods have lessened chances of becoming jealous based on the order of the donation received. Known beneficial orders include:
** Nature, Magic
** Magic, Moon

= Disfavour and Hatred status =
You receive Disfavour and Hatred status from making gods jealous and donating puny 1 geld amounts.
* In Disfavoured status, you experience the opposite effect that favour would give you.
* In Hatred status, that negative effect is doubled.
** e.g. -40 spell level for Magic Hatred.

On top of that, there are short term penalties associated with Disfavour and Hatred status. They are more detrimental under Hatred.
The possibilities for Disfavour are:
* Offensive Enchantments: [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]], [[Call Lightning]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency
* [[heroes|Hero]] testing leading to level loss
* [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* Loss of 'Damaged' [[Protection]] status.
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

The possibilities for Hatred are:
* Severe offensive Enchantments: (some more fatal than others): [[Death and Decay]], [[Meteor Storm]], [[Battle Chant]]
** You cannot dispel gods' enchantments, but you can remove them using [[Minor Indulgence]].
* Severe Offensive Spells: [[Destroy Artifacts]], [[Fool's Gold]] and [[Spell Strike]] (removing all your beneficial enchantments)
* More offensive Spells: [[Earthquake]], [[Volcano Eruption]],
** Like all God spells, these have increased potency (Destroy Artifacts can destroy 50 items)
* A 'Super' [[Atomic Bomb]]
* Hero death, [[Luck#Bad_Luck|Bad Luck]]
* No Damaged Protection
* Loss of [[Mana|m.p.]]

= Hero testing =
When a god turns from favour to disfavour, one of your heroes may be tested by a God.
The possible outcomes are: your hero gains one level, your hero stays, your hero loses a set amount of experience, or your hero dies. If your hero is very low level when it loses experience, its level may decrease by two.

= Most Favoured =

== Requirements ==
* You need to be a Top 10 donator.
* You need to donate almost all of your geld (over 90%).
* The amount you donate needs to be at least ten times the normal (minimum) donation amount.
* You need to have special kinds of things in your army (Race/Colour/Attacktype units) - differs per god,
* You need special kinds of things with your country / play style - differs per god,
** For Science, it is said that you need at least 1000 lesser items and 1 unique (e.g. a [[Holy Grail]]).
** For Nature, it is said that you have to be peaceful, without attacking other mages for days.
* You need a special kind of relationship with another god (e.g. Hatred with at least one other god, all neutral, etc) - differs per god
* The requirements for Most Favoured sometimes change.

* If all of the above are satisfied, then you have a 50%{{verify source}} chance to get that most favour.

=== Jealousy of other gods ===
* Other gods may become annoyed on achieving Most-Favoured status.
* On getting Most-Favoured, other FAVOUR status gods may get jealous and act (like when getting normal Favour) and change status
* On getting Most-Favoured, other NEUTRAL status gods may get jealous and act (''unlike'' when getting normal Favour)
* On getting Most-Favoured, other DISFAVOUR/HATRED status gods may get jealous and act

This can have positive effect (i.e. hero-levelling, serenity-when-wanted) but usually it is a negative effect.

== What does it bring? ==
Double what normal favour brings for double the time (48 hours)

Plus special goodies:
* Nature: [[Plant Growth]] or [[Nature's Favor]] or [[Nature's Lore]] level 777 for 300 turns (with upkeep)
* Sun: 100 [[Red Dragon]]s (with upkeep)
* Moon: Full mana charge and 70,000 [[werewolf|werewolves]] (with upkeep).
* Magic: 777 [[Concentration]] for 400 turns, 500 nodes.
* Science: Random [[Unique Items|unique item]], yes you can get Holy Grails.
* Satan: 50 turns of [[Contract of the Soul|CoS]] (no upkeep, no Devil Prince)
* Lucifer: a level 18-24 random [[:Category:Heroes|hero]] (with upkeep)

===Tactics===
Pull off a Moon Most Favoured at Armageddon, have the biggest power boost with no turns spending possible, and secure yourself a surprise Hall of Immortals spot that way. (But this would only give 13.3M power).
