Torch God's Favor



Torch God's Favor is a consumable item obtained by surviving The Torch God event. Upon use, it permanently grants the player the ability to automatically convert regular torches in the player's hand to the current biome's torch variant, which positively influences the player's Torch Luck in most areas.

Torch God's Favor is a one-time consumable whose effect cannot stack (similar to Advanced Combat Techniques or the Demon Heart). When first used, the ability is switched on by default. It can then be toggled off and on via a Biome Torch Swap icon appearing in the upper-left of the inventory (similar to The Grand Design).

Torches placed with Biome Torch Swap toggled on will permanently remain converted to the biome torch they were placed as, even if freed and picked up.

Torch type priority

 * Demon Torches take precedence over Hallowed, Corrupt, and Crimson torches, which in turn take precedence over all other biomes.
 * Ice Torches take precedence over Jungle Torches (even though the Jungle biome takes precedence over the Snow biome for most other purposes like fishing and enemy spawning).

Tips

 * A profit of per torch bought from the Merchant (at base happiness) can be made by converting regular torches to Demon Torches in The Underworld, then picking up and selling them. However, a player who has progressed to the point that they are comfortable enough in the Underworld to spend time on this has much more profitable options.
