Blessing
- This article is about blessing items to use against the undead.
- For the cleric ability related to Holy Receptacle (325), see BLESS (verb).
- For the lore skill, see Spiritual Lore, Blessings.
Blessed weapons, shields, and armor are capable of harming the undead, who are otherwise immune to ordinary physical attacks.
Common methods of blessing an item include:
- Bless Item (304) cast by a Cleric
- Symbol of Blessing by a member of the Order of Voln
- POUR a pure potion on the item
Armaments with an enchantment bonus require the casting cleric to have at least 40 ranks in the Cleric Base spell circle, or the Voln member to have rank at least half the enchantment bonus (for example, a rank 10 member can bless items of up to +20 bonus). Pure potions work regardless of enchantment.
Items with inherent weighting or flares cannot be blessed. Certain materials with antimagic properties such as veil iron are also not usually blessable, though there are some rare exceptions.
Sanctified items
Sanctified items (also known as holy items), such as those crafted from white ora or eonake, are considered blessed in the hands of a cleric or paladin, and will show as such if one of them uses the ASSESS verb. Basic sanctified weapons are sold in most cleric shops. It is possible for a sanctified weapon to also have weighting or flares. Paladins can also bond to a weapon using the Sanctify (1625) spell, which gives it the blessed property.
Sanctified items are not otherwise blessable when used by other professions.
Permabless
Permablessed and undead bane items are considered blessed for anyone who wields them, and are extremely rare.
Demons
Demons can only be harmed by blessed weapons with at least +40 enchantment bonus, or extraplanar bane. If the demon is phased, +20 blessed weapons will suffice. The enchantment threshold for archery is lower (confirmed with +30 bow and master-fletched blessed +25 arrows).
