Overview

The Forsaken Altar is a building unlocked for missions on all Prestige difficulty levels. It enables Viceroys to purchase Stormforged Cornerstones, which include especially powerful versions of regular Cornerstones and some unique ones.

Usage

The Forsaken Altar can be found in the Essential Buildings tab, and once placed, cannot be destroyed. The altar may be used once in the Storm Season after you earn 3 Reputation points, and then once again after earning 6 and again after earning 9 Reputation points.

The UI indicates in red the Reputation milestones when you may earn another Stormforged Cornerstone.

When the priestess arrives during the Storm Season, you may choose one of three Stormforged Cornerstones. There is a price, and you may choose to pay with Meta Rewards and/or Villager lives. You may also choose not to purchase one of these Stormforged Cornerstones. You will be offered the same set of Stormforged Cornerstones each Storm until you either make a purchase or decline the offering. If you decline the offering, your chance to purchase a Stormforged Cornerstone (represented by the red pips on the Reputation bar) is consumed as if you had made a purchase. You will be offered a different set of Stormforged Cornerstones the next time you pass a Forsaken Altar Reputation milestone, but you will not get an additional offering later to make up for the one you declined.
