When you save/sacrifice a monster/archfiend/enemy/ally, its Life/Soul Essence will reside in your Right Arm.
Essences are required to activate some sigils: only after enough of certain essences are gathered the sigil will become usable.
There are two types of Essences:
- Soul Essence (SE) : obtained when sacrificing;
- Life Essence (LE) : obtained when saving.
There are also 3 ranks to an Essence: "Normal/+/++". Finding higher ranked essences is dependent on chance, and that chance is increased by 2 factors:
- Sigils:
- Sigil Skill name "Salvation Amp" Increases the chance of finding LE+ and LE++ while saving
- Sigil Skill name "Sacrifice Amp" Increases the chance of finding SE+ and SE++ while sacrificing
- Pact Difficulty Level
- Higher Difficulty Pacts tend to have higher chances of + and ++
- Higher Difficulty Pacts doesn't affect chances to find ally's + and ++
You can know if a defeated enemy/Archfiend will give you a LE+/SE+ if saving/sacrificing it will substract from the opposite meter a 50% of the points for the opposite action. You'll get a LE++/SE++ if it substracts 100%. E.g.: a enemy will give you +9 Divine points for saving it OR +18 Dark points and -9 Divine points for sacrificing it. If you sacrifice it you'll get a SE++, as it will substract from your Divine metter a 100% (-9 points) of what it would give you if you save it (+9 points).
