Description: The Benediction spell allows a Cleric to manifest their faith and devotion into a blessing of enhanced physical prowess. Under the effects of this blessing the caster may find that their body moves with greater ease, their blows fall with greater force than before, or even that their strikes land home with far greater accuracy. Be warned, however, that this is certainly not a spell for the weak of mind, spirit, or faith.
Effect: +Agility (stat), +Reflex (stat), +Strength (stat), Varying bonus amount.
Example Messaging: You make a holy gesture and intone reverently, "Triquetra, hear my plea!"

You suddenly feel more limber, your reflexes charged with a faint energy.
Suddenly your muscles flood with energy, singing with a faint vigor.
A surge of faint energy tingles through every nerve in your body, leaving you feeling more dexterous.

Devices/Tattoos: No devices or tattoos documented.

Buff to Strength, Reflex, and Agility. Self cast only.

Can be placed into the Osrel Meraud orb.

Only Reflex buff >200 Holy Magic

Agility buff starts at 300 Holy Magic?


Historical Notes

The following information is historical only, and does not reflect 3.0 mechanics:

I was able to find the old Benediction bonus information from a screenshot dated 2009. Here is that info which is obviously not tested/confirmed with DR 3.0 but hopefully is still helpful:

faint - 5 mana; cast will give bonus of 3
mild - 14 mana; cast will give bonus of 5
strong - 18 mana; cast will give bonus of 7
great - 24 mana; cast will give bonus of 9
profuse - 30 mana; cast will give bonus of 12
massive - 37 mana; cast will give bonus of 15


  • Agility buff appears to kick in at exactly 300 ranks in Holy Magic.
  • Low devotion may reduce the bonus gained or cap it outright. "After a moment, you see a vision of your god, though the visage is cloudy and impossible to make out clearly." is the minimum required to get a massive bonus.
