I've been playing 0.15a/trunk and found that after a first ever encounter with a Gozag altar my religion display shows a "$128" just behind the god's name. Regrettably I've no clue what this means. Sort of a banker's account for my character? (No, I didn't actively begin to worship Gorzag. Or did I without knowing? I collected some gold laying around there.) Anyone out there who can explain the phenomenon and add it to the wiki? -- [[User:Bwijn|Bwijn]] ([[User talk:Bwijn|talk]]) 11:36, 25 July 2014 (CEST)

Questions

I've been playing 0.15a/trunk and found that after a first ever encounter with a Gozag altar my religion display shows a "$128" just behind the god's name. Regrettably I've no clue what this means. Sort of a banker's account for my character? (No, I didn't actively begin to worship Gorzag. Or did I without knowing? I collected some gold laying around there.) Anyone out there who can explain the phenomenon and add it to the wiki? -- Bwijn (talk) 11:36, 25 July 2014 (CEST)

I'm pretty sure that's the entrance fee for worshiping Gozag. --spudwalt (talk) 21:19, 25 July 2014 (CEST)

In order to begin worshiping Gozag, you must 1) pray at his altar, and 2) have enough gold on hand to bribe him into letting you join. I don't know the specifics, however; you'd have to code dive for that. --MoogleDan (talk) 14:41, 31 July 2014 (CEST)

Bribery

What are the limitations here regarding enemy intelligence and holiness? Can you bribe moths of wrath and orbs of fire in Zot? That seems kind of bizarre... --MoogleDan (talk) 17:26, 30 August 2014 (CEST)

The list of bribable monsters is here. The number at the end of each line indicates how difficult it is to bribe that kind of monsters. There is a comment that says that the chance of conversion is x/16, but I think the correct probability is x/8. These monsters are bribable only in the branch specified by the second field. --CommanderC (talk) 22:28, 30 August 2014 (CEST)

Gozag

If you remove an amulet of faith while worshipping Gozag, how long do his prices stay increased? Permanently? Until you use one of his services? What happens if you put the amulet back on? Emufarmers (talk) 00:31, 29 May 2015 (CEST)

I believe the effect is permanent. Putting it back on would reduce prices again, but not to the low, low prices they were at before. Basically, rapidly removing and equipping an amulet of faith should cause prices to skyrocket. Don't do it :P --MoogleDan (talk) 15:06, 7 June 2015 (CEST)
