As a heads up, we are going to be looking at the devotion system as a whole here in the near future. With increased usage of that system as a measure of power for our abilities and spells, it is necessary to give the system an overhaul so that is more effective for you to use.
We are currently discussing allowing many of the common rituals to give devotion to a higher point on the scale. Currently they are capped based upon how hard they are. As a compromise, these rituals will give smaller boosts with each completion.
The end result, will be more options on "how" you raise devotion, but slower movement up the scale. No longer will the only way to reach higher levels be limited to raising the favorless, or prayer badges.
We will have more information for you as we nail down just how we are going to proceed, but this is a high priority project for us, so we should have movement on it soon.
