The Shrine

The Shrine is fundamentally used to unlock 'Teachable Perks' that are available every week. Around midnight every Wednesday, The Shrine resets itself and there are four new 'Teachable Perks' available for purchase for the next 7 days. Teachable Perks are basically used to unlock the possibility to receive unique perks for characters while in the Bloodweb. Even though these perks can be unlocked at level 30-40 by simply partaking in the Bloodweb, The Shrine is a good alternative by purchasing them with 'Iridescent Shards.' These shards can be collected by completing trails and slowly building them up. The higher the player's level, the more shards will be rewarded. When these perks appear in the Shrine, they cost around 2,000-2,700 Iridescent Shards.
