Invocations
Version 0.14: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
Invocations denotes how skillful your character is at beseeching a deity for help. It improves the power and/or success rate of most god-given powers, save for those granted by the following gods:
- Ashenzari (uses piety)
- Gozag Ym Sagoz (uses gold)
- Jiyva (uses piety)
- Kikubaaqudgha (uses Necromancy)
- Nemelex (uses Evocations)
- Trog (uses piety)
- Vehumet (all benefits are passive)
- Xom (=^_^=)
Invocations also increases your max MP, but the effect is not cumulative with Spellcasting and provides less maximum MP.
