Alternative to having the {{RarityItem|Warped Headband of Intellect}} equipped, the character can be temporarily respecced through [[Withers]], giving them an Intelligence rating of 17 that can be further increased with the [[Ability Improvement|ability improvement]] feat twice, to 20. The character can be respecced back to their main build afterwards, retaining the Mirror of Loss stat enhancement. | Alternative to having the {{RarityItem|Warped Headband of Intellect}} equipped, the character can be temporarily respecced through [[Withers]], giving them an Intelligence rating of 17 that can be further increased with the [[Ability Improvement|ability improvement]] feat twice, to 20.

== Details == | |||
When a character offers a memory to the mirror, there is a hidden, random roll to determine the outcome. | |||
* '''Rolled a 6 or higher and haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''You feel the presence of something, ancient and unknowable. It has taken notice of you.'' | |||
** This option lets you select the +2 ability bonus. | |||
** You can only get this option after passing the DC 25 religion check for each character that uses the mirror. | |||
** Once you get this option, you won't be able to use the mirror again with that character. | |||
* '''Rolled a 5 or higher and haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''Disappointment floods your mind. You were sure to succeed Stelmane, but Lord Enver Gortash has stolen your support. All that charming and cajoling in the parlours of the Upper City, wasted.'' | |||
** This option gives you +1 Charisma from Patriar's Memory. | |||
* '''Rolled a 4 or higher and haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''You embody a merchant, deep in mourning. His wife died, and he cannot bear to go on. Only the House of Grief can help him.'' | |||
* '''Rolled a 3 or higher and haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''You embody a heartbroken heiress, desperate to forget an unrequited love. The sadness flees from you... along with a string of numbers. A safe combination?'' | |||
* '''Rolled a 2 or higher and haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''Your mind is that of corrupt alderman, eager to forget his transgressions. You feel them fade away... but your faith in the goddess Selûne is devoured along with them.'' | |||
* '''Haven't already landed on this outcome''': ''You embody an officer of the City Watch. A comrade died because of you. The dead man's face fades away... but the identities of informants vanish as well.'' | |||
* '''Default outcome''': ''A jumble of memories clamour for your attention. They range from ancient to new. But none are yours.'' | |||
** This option can be landed on multiple times once other options are depleted. | |||
In total, each character will have 7 opportunities to roll (1 per ability plus 1 from passing the [[Deception]] check). | |||
To more reliably get the extra bonus from the Patriar's Memory, you should use the mirror ''before'' offering a prayer. | |||
This way, you won't prematurely lock yourself out of subsequent rolls by landing on the +2 bonus. | |||
It will also make the Patriar's Memory the most probable outcome of each roll. | |||
