Binds a stick that drinks Raid Omen and yields a single trial key. Omen strength does not multiply the tithe, and the key never opens an ominous vault.

How it works

Ominous Tithe binds a stick that turns an omen into a trial key. While you bear an omen, right-click with the stick. The omen is spent, and a trial key appears. The omen condenses into a trial key.

The stick drinks Raid Omen first, then Trial Omen, then Bad Omen. The pattern has no Tier blocks, so every stick carries four charges.

Good to know

• Each tithe yields exactly one trial key, whatever the strength of the omen.
• It makes ordinary trial keys. Ominous trial keys are beyond it.
• The tithe waits for an omen. You need an omen on you first.

Enchantment

The enchantment is called Ominous Tithe. Hold a stick while you wake the rune.
