Mysterious altar

From DDO wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Mysterious altars are in-quest sources of powerful buffs.

Usage[edit]

  • Clicking the altar buffs your character and hirelings if they are ordered to use it.
  • The buffs act like the classic ship buffs in that they cannot be dispelled, persist though rest, disappear on death/leaving quest, and have a 1-hour duration.
  • Altars have a (?) minutes cooldown (per person) before they can be used again; all group members (including hirelings) can benefit from the effect at the same time.

Types[edit]

Offense
33 Melee, Ranged and Spell Power
Sword
