Template:Infobox Item This page refers to the craftable Moondial decoration. There are some moondial versions that can be purchased in the Crown Shop or were exclusive pledge items (see "Other Moodial Variations" below).
Note: When a Moondial is placed in a Dungeon or Basement, the heavenly body positions in relation to the constellations will not be accurate.
How to Use A Moondial[edit]
From the Developer Notes: One then uses the Moondial by merely standing beside the Moondial facing the planet at its center, visually aligning yourself with the constellation representing a Devotional within the town you’re interested in, and seeing which moons fall within that sector slice that angles in from the sector edges on either side of the constellation toward the center of the world… The Cabalists representing the antivirtues of those moons should be attacking any city bearing that particular Devotional at that time… In the example you can see that towns hosting a Devotional of Honor are being currently attacked by Avara while Dolus prepares to withdraw his minions, and Nefas is readying his forces in vicious support that is soon to come![1]
Additional Explanation: Basically, you stand in front of the symbol that represents the Patron City that you are interested in (the symbol is within its own sector of the moondial), then face the planet (i.e. New Britannia) at the center of the moondial. If there is a Moon visible within the sector of the symbol (and between the symbol and the central planet), then the Patron City associated with that symbol will be under siege by the Cabalist represented by the moon. You can have multiple moons within a symbol's sector; therefore, a city can be under siege by multiple cabalists.
Also, you can click on the moondial, which will cause it to swirl and then to highlight the following items in the sky: the stars in each constellations, the symbol associated with each constellation, and the sector of each constellation (although these highlights may only be visible when there are no clouds and when the sky is dark enough). If you would rather look at the sky to determine which cities are under siege, this makes it much easier to see if a moon is in the sector of a constellation/symbol.
Recipe[edit]
This recipe can be purchased from Isabeau D'Anjou, an NPC Housing Decorations Merchant in Xenos.
