No Plans to Implement Religion Changes

[Beetee_Latier]

I've seen a few religion-related suggestions on the forums, so I decided I'd share some of the ideas I feel would make the server religion system better.
First of all, I think that owners of towns should be able to create Holy Zones (basically Churches) that would give somebody +2 faith for the religion assigned to that Holy Zone when they /pray there. The command could be something like /g z holysite (zone name) (reglion). A town would be limited to 3 holy zones, and each holy zone can be for a different religion. The Holy Zones could also have a limit in size to stop somebody from simply making their entire town a Holy Zone. As usual, anywhere outside the Holy Site or Holy Zones would just be +1 faith.
Since the Holy Zones would give +2 faith, the Holy Sites would be bumped up to +3 faith.
Also, people would be able to /rl convert within these Holy Zones, even if they are not within the Holy Site.
I feel like these changes and adding Holy Zones would make religions much more interesting and separate from towns for once. If you have any suggestions/feedback please feel free to leave them below because I feel like there's a lot of other cool things that could be added to this that I haven't thought of yet- thanks!

At current there isn't a whole lot to do with the faith that you've accumulated, and for that reason the groups that I know just don't pray at all. However, if faith did something more for the game, I think it would be an interesting experience to try and play for the religious victory. That could be another way to get non-pvper interest. Once a use is placed on the faith mechanic, then I would look at some sort of presence mechanic, something that shows that faith's influence, like a temple or a town religion like they have in Civ

I am all for giving religion to have multiple holy sites and zones and all that. With the discussions I've had with Crypt I believe he said it was purely for roleplaying so there isn't any mechanical uses planned but with the whole roleplaying in mind, I do agree that there should be zoned religious sites and some kinda of ability to "convert" a town with some sort of command (that only an owner can use just like with founding a religion) and then with that you can make religious sites within the converted town to give +2 with prayers

If this doesn't make much sense sorry I currently have like 7 people trying to talk to me and it makes organizing my thoughts difficult

Sounds good to me, would give religious buildings such as churches more purpose!

Not tryna promote my own suggestion, but for reference: https://lokamc.com/forums/index.php?threads/religion-suggestions.3583/

Faith Suggestion: Have a Cathedral at spawn (Similar to the cap halls) Highest faith gets to be in that Church and make it a holy zone for that religion.

I like the idea of the holy zones, but my suggestion to add to it, to keep with roleplay is that only someone who is a member of said religion can make the holy zone. Example: (because that wording didn't make sense) As a member of the great pond, I could make a holy zone in Jotun, however I cannot make a zone for any other religion because I'm not a follower of it.
