<div></div>What is the upgrade to Penitent Sacrament (I can't remember it off hand)<font><strong>.</strong></font>Where do I find the component to cast the spell ?Do they magically appear like they do for Penitent Sacrament ? <span>:smileysurprised:</span>Thanks in Advance . . .

<P>The spell line is two fold:</P> <P>Blessing of the Penitent casts a spell that over time will generate as you are hit, Penitent Essence, an inventory item that will stack 50 high.  You will get a spell later called Penitent Sacrement (the counterpart).  This spell will consume one of the essences from inventory and provide a significant heal.</P> <P>The upgrade to Penitent line is called Devout.  The rest of the verbage is the same and the concept is the same, but it's a better heal.</P> <P>Thanks,<BR>Kalen</P>

Do the spell components for Devout appear in your inventory as well ? They haven't been for me since I got the upgrade. And I keep getting the message "missing component" when I attempt to cast it. The spell will not consue an Penitent Esscence.

<DIV>Let's run off a checklist for you:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>1. Make sure your hotkey bar contains -> Blessing of the Devout (remove Blessing of the Penitent for now as they share the same timer)</DIV> <DIV>2. Make sure your hotkey bar contains -> Devout Sacrament (remove Penitent Sacrement for now as they share the same timer)</DIV> <DIV>3. With both spells on your hotbar, cast "Blessing of the Devout"  It will show a shield icon on your maintained spell window.  Verify the spell is active.</DIV> <DIV>4. Seek out a mob that can hit you pretty easily--but don't die <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV>5. If you fight a green ^^ mob with the spell cast, there's a good probability you'll be hit several times during the encounter which means there's a random chance an essense will be added to your inventory.</DIV> <DIV>6. If you fail to find any after round one, find a single red mob that is within 4 levels of your level and repeat the test again.</DIV> <DIV>7. If this fails, find a blue ^^ that will definitely hit you much more then the green ^^ and try it for a minute or too, yell for help and run away since you probably won't kill it solo--go ahead if you can</DIV> <DIV>8. Check your inventory again--you should have some essences waiting.</DIV> <DIV>9. If that fails, find a group and fight white or above group or ^^ mobs for about 30 minutes straight while ensuring the blessing is always active.  If you still fail to have an essence, it's probably bugged and I would /bug and /petition the issue.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>In all honesty, I can cast blessing and loose track of it running for a bit and open my inventory and have a partial stack waiting.  They are 10x easier to get then the old penitent line.  Of course, they've fixed some things since I had the penitent line so hopefully they are easier to acquire now.  I almost NEVER cast the blessing now unless I just want the buff soley because my inventory runneth over with essence and FAST!  I carry one stack of penitent essence for mentoring and I currently have 1 stack of devout handy.  Likewise, I have a single stack of both banked, but that's probably a waste of two good inventory slots.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>You used to be able to sell essences on the broker--probably still can so that might be an outlet to pickup some in the interim.  If you are on Najena server, I'll be happy to donate a stack.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks,<BR>Kalen</DIV>
