[edit] Definition

A Morale Boost is the opposite of Death Penalty. It raises your maximum Energy and Health by a certain percentage depending on how it is gained. When you or your team earns a morale boost, all of your skills except adrenal skills are recharged.

[edit] Acquisition

[edit] GvG

• Every two minutes a team holds the flagstand, that team earns a 10% morale boost.

[edit] PvE

• Killing a boss monster gives a 2% morale boost to your party. However if you are in Junundu Wurm form, normal skills will not be recharged.
• Certain events during missions, such as slaying a Stone Summit Engineer will give a moral boost to the whole party (including pets).
• Reputation point blessings can grant moral boosts as a random bonus.
• Paying the god avatars (while the world has favor) a small offering will grant a 2% morale boost each time.
• Using certain Consumable foods will provide morale boosts, but boosts gained this way do not recharge Skills:
  • Rainbow Candy Cane grants a 5% morale boost to the party. Random reward from Wintersday Gifts and Chest of Wintersday Past.
  • Elixir of Valor grants a 10% morale boost to the party. Random reward from Coffer of Whispers.
  • Powerstone of Courage removes all death penalty and grants the party a 10% morale boost. Crafted by Edwin.
  • Honeycomb grants a 5% morale boost to the party. Crafted by Galton Franks.
  • Pumpkin Cookie grants a 10% morale boost to the user. Random item in Trick-or-Treat Bags.

[edit] Heroes' Ascent

• Holding the Altar for 2 minutes gives a 10% morale boost.
• On other maps, killing the enemy Ghostly Hero will also give a morale boost.

[edit] Notes

• Morale Boosts and Death Penalty counteract one another. For example, getting a 10% Morale Boost with 30% DP will leave you with 20% DP.
• Unlike DP, which is capped at 60%, Morale Boosts are capped at 10%.
• Morale boosts do not affect minions, spirits, or pets (with some exceptions), though pets can accumulate Death Penalty in PvP.
