	'''Sacrifice''' is an offensive self-buff skill of the [[Paladin]] class that turns the Paladin's own life force into ~~raw~~, defense-piercing ~~damage~~. ~~When~~ cast, it empowers the next several ~~melee~~ attacks, each of which spends the Paladin's ~~own~~ HP to strike ~~for~~ a ~~fixed share of maximum HP~~.		'''Sacrifice''' is an offensive self-buff skill of the [[Paladin]] class that turns the Paladin's own life force into unavoidable, defense-piercing blows. Once cast, it empowers the Paladin's next several attacks, each of which spends a share of the Paladin's maximum HP to strike far harder than a normal swing.

	== Overview ==		== Overview ==

	Sacrifice arms the Paladin for a short burst of self-damaging melee. After activation the following ~~normal~~ attacks ~~become~~ Sacrifice strikes that ignore the target's defense and cannot ~~miss~~, but each one costs the Paladin a fixed portion of their own maximum HP. ~~It rewards a high-HP build, since both~~ the ~~damage dealt and the HP paid scale off maximum HP rather than weapon attack~~.		Sacrifice arms the Paladin for a short burst of self-damaging melee. After activation, the following attacks resolve as Sacrifice strikes that ignore the target's defense and cannot be dodged, but each one costs the Paladin a fixed portion of their own maximum HP. The buff has no timer: it waits until the empowered attacks are spent.

	== Mechanics ==		== Mechanics ==

	Casting Sacrifice empowers the Paladin's next 5 ~~melee~~ attacks. Each empowered strike resolves as a physical hit that ignores the target's defense and the target's Flee.		Casting Sacrifice empowers the Paladin's next '''5''' attacks. Each empowered strike resolves as a physical hit that ignores the target's defense and the target's Flee, so the listed damage lands every time.

	'''Damage formula:''' Damage per strike = 9% of ~~the Paladin's Maximum HP~~		'''Damage formula:''' Damage per strike = 120 + 20 × SkillLv (% of ATK)

	'''~~Effect~~:''' Each empowered strike costs the Paladin 9% of their own maximum HP, paid ~~whether or not~~ the strike ~~connects~~. ~~The buff lasts until all~~ 5 ~~strikes are spent~~.		'''HP cost:''' Each empowered strike costs the Paladin '''6% of their own maximum HP''', paid on every strike regardless of skill level.

			'''Element:''' Empowered strikes are Neutral. While [[Providence]] is active on the Paladin, they become Holy instead; the element is checked on each individual strike, so it changes as soon as Providence expires between hits.

			'''Other bonuses:''' Sacrifice does not benefit from weapon mastery bonuses or from elemental weapon endowments.

			== Leveling ==

			{\| class="wikitable"
			! Level !! Damage per strike (% of ATK)
			\|-
			\| 1 \|\| 140%
			\|-
			\| 2 \|\| 160%
			\|-
			\| 3 \|\| 180%
			\|-
			\| 4 \|\| 200%
			\|-
			\| 5 \|\| 220%
			\|}

			SP cost stays at 30 and the HP cost stays at 6% of maximum HP at every level, so raising the skill is a pure damage increase.

	== Notes ==		== Notes ==

	* Because ~~both~~ the ~~damage~~ and ~~the self-cost are tied to maximum HP~~, Sacrifice ~~favors a tanky,~~ high-~~HP Paladin who can afford to trade life for guaranteed~~ defense-~~ignoring hits~~.		* Because the strikes ignore defense and Flee, Sacrifice is reliable against high-defense or high-dodge targets that normally blunt physical attacks.
	* The self-damage ~~can be lethal if the~~ Paladin's HP ~~is low~~, ~~so it~~ is ~~used with care in prolonged fights~~.		* The self-damage is taken on every strike, so a Paladin should watch their HP through a Sacrifice window, especially outside a party with a healer.
			* Pairing Sacrifice with Providence turns the burst Holy, which is a notable gain against undead and demon enemies.

'''Sacrifice''' is an offensive self-buff skill of the [[Paladin]] class that turns the Paladin's own life force into raw, defense-piercing damage. When cast, it empowers the next several melee attacks, each of which spends the Paladin's own HP to strike for a fixed share of maximum HP.

== Overview ==

Sacrifice arms the Paladin for a short burst of self-damaging melee. After activation the following normal attacks become Sacrifice strikes that ignore the target's defense and cannot miss, but each one costs the Paladin a fixed portion of their own maximum HP. It rewards a high-HP build, since both the damage dealt and the HP paid scale off maximum HP rather than weapon attack.

== Mechanics ==

Casting Sacrifice empowers the Paladin's next 5 melee attacks. Each empowered strike resolves as a physical hit that ignores the target's defense and the target's Flee.

'''Damage formula:''' Damage per strike = 9% of the Paladin's Maximum HP

'''Effect:''' Each empowered strike costs the Paladin 9% of their own maximum HP, paid whether or not the strike connects. The buff lasts until all 5 strikes are spent.

== Notes ==

* Because both the damage and the self-cost are tied to maximum HP, Sacrifice favors a tanky, high-HP Paladin who can afford to trade life for guaranteed defense-ignoring hits.
* The self-damage can be lethal if the Paladin's HP is low, so it is used with care in prolonged fights.
