      If Hope is being disarmed in the fight against Raphael while holding this weapon, she cannot re-equip it because the "Equip" option isn't available for her, effectively leaving her unarmed. I guess she would stay unarmed when she drops her normal weapon, too, but then she could use Divine Intervention to arm herself again… I guess?
      Point and case: Why can this one-in-a-playthrough rubbish weapons even be disarmed? XD

        Seems bugged, used it once against Raphael while inside a Globe of Invulnerability and I can still use again one more time.

        • Anonymous

          Could I just respec every character to a cleric, use this, and then respec back to what they were? It's probably not worth the effort but that seems a little silly if I can worship a god for 2 minutes to get a once-in-a-campaign blessing and then instantly drop them like a bad habit.

            Golden Generosity also spawns a unique chest - arguably the more interesting aspect about it. At least if you are into camp decoration. Not that there is much value in that. I WAS hoping that it would spawn Heavy Camp Supplies which are worth 80 Camp Supplies. No dice though. There is only 1 in the entire game, and it is in Act 3 on a shelf in a shop, prior to crossing the bridge. Just throws regular Camp Supplies at you, with a random variety of pointless supplies you can buy/find en masse, along with random Elixir's. Nothing set in stone, nothing unique. Literally pulls it from the very, VERY, small table you can create from via alchemy. Honestly. Respec the hirelings and your party, use it for the Golden Generosity for the supplies in a pinch, and if you have a strength based dual wielder, use two of them for the weapon. Alternatively, use all the hirelings to force long rests without actually long resting. Sunder is near worthless based on it's save for half, and the fact you don't encounter a huge amount of enemies frequently enough, and Opulent Revival hinges on the fact that you are getting are butt handed to you, WITH the Cleric in your party at the time to be truly effective. Outside of that, it's basically a 100gp long rest.

              Hope from House of Hope knows divine intervention, you can cast it to get the weapon and then throw it on the ground and keep it

                With the respec system currently in place; you can, as of date/time of this post respec a character into cleric, get to use this on each companion AND hireling (you can only use the spell once per character, respeccing away and back into cleric does not give the spell back).

                The Devotee's Mace does NOT despawn if you respec, and you keep the supplies granted from the other option if you chose that too. This means you can use hirelings to get any number of maces you want as well as supplies and keep the AoE damage spell or the AoE full party heal/rez + long rest for your main party cleric for when the spell is needed.

                  what!!! :O once per character!!! also the hirings probably give you some extra i mean if you want the mace then just hire the cleric and get it

                  • Anonymous

                    if you're stupid enough to go to hell and find out how fked you are, hope is not lost cos you can find a companion with divine intervention that full heal + revive + spell slot your squad

                      The weapon part is extremely disappointing, The weapon takes no consideration on what domain you've chosen. You will be given the healing mace and that's about it. It would be cool if it had different effects depending on domain you choose.

                      • Anonymous

                        Does this work once per save file, or once per character? Cause if it's per character, you could turn a serious profit by recruiting and reclassing all the hirelings into clerics (pickpocket the money back of course) and using the option that gives you tons of free supplies.

                          1. If I respec the character do i lose the mace?
                          2. if I get cleric on a character im not using, do i get to use the mace on a different character?

                            If you use it during the fight against Raphael the caster is immediately downed (killed if it's Hope) so be careful.

                              The options are:

                              1. You get many potions and camp supplies
                              2. 8-80 Radiant damage to all in a wide circle around you
                              3. Ressurect fallen allies with half hp
                              4. Receive a 1h mace that gives you an ability that heals you 1-4 every turn

                              I feel like 2 is the best option. The hammer is good but you can just get other gear.
