Notes

Using Cultist Sacrifice on an NPC gives the player the full soul bounty plus 180% (280% total). The original bounty and the bonus are displayed as two separate values when activated.
- The bonus souls from Cultist Sacrifice are secured souls.
The buff persists through death.
Cultist Sacrifice applies additional damage to Non-Player Characters. This includes Troopers, neutral entities like Neutrals and Mid-Boss, as well as lane structures and team objectives such as Guardians, Walkers, Shrines, and the Patron.
Player-created NPCs (summons) can also be consumed for the bonus souls (with certain exceptions, see list below).
The bonus Bullet Resist has no effect against Walkers, the Patron, and Graves', McGinnis' and Rem's summons, since they deal Spirit Damage.
Cultist Sacrifice's active counts as Spirit Damage. This means it can activate on-hit spirit damage procs such as Spirit Burn.
