Rewards


A sanctum pays the same biome-based Spark amount as a shrine. The amount grows with each region, from one Spark in the Springlands to six in the Veilwater Basin. The Spark grows back over time, so a sanctum can be visited again later. Sparks strengthen the Flame at the Flame Altar and open the doors of Night Sanctums. Decorations and loot also fill the sanctum, so a visit pays off beyond the Spark.
