'''Shrines''' are defensive [[Structures]] located in pairs within each team's base. They are the final objectives that must be destroyed before the [[Patron]] can be damaged.

== Overview ==
Shrines appear to be a metallic chair or throne, with a modified [[Guardian]] sitting atop it. The guardian seems to have a conductive metal crown instead of the usual brazier head found on standard guardians, which it uses to target nearby [[Trooper|Troopers]].
The [[Hidden King]] shrine resembles a speaker tower with three large loudspeakers and three smaller ones, all mounted on an inscribed hexagonal platform with a candle placed at each point. A glowing magical symbol sits at the center of the speakers. The shrine is primarily colored orange to match the Hidden King’s theme, and it faces the Hidden King patron, appearing to transmit sound waves toward it.
Shrines are found in pairs within each team's base, located on opposite sides to each other. The Patron will patrol between each Shrine, and defend any that are under attack. Shrines have the lowest base health of any structure at 3,000 Health.
In contrast, the [[Archmother]] shrine takes the form of a blue-lit platform, fitting the Archmother theme, topped by a book stand holding a magical tome. A hexagon is also inscribed on the platform, surrounded by magical sigils and inscriptions. The book periodically flips open and appears to emit magical energy directed toward the Archmother patron.
Despite being able to target Troopers, Shrines cannot actually deal damage to them or [[Heroes]], rendering them harmless.
Shrines are found in pairs within each team's base, located on opposite sides to each other. The Patron will defend any that are under attack with a beam that deals damage and [[Status Effects#Curse|curses]] players in or near the Shrine platform. Shrines start with {{NpcData|destroyable_building|MaxHealthGenerator}} HP. When one shrine is destroyed, the other shrine's HP is increased to {{NpcData|destroyable_building|MaxHealthGeneratorSecond}}.

== Resistances ==
Like Base Guardians, Shrines also have scaling [[Bullet Resist]], albeit at a higher rate. By default, they have 60% Bullet Resist, however with every additional enemy hero nearby, they lose 20%. This is likely to discourage backdooring, and encourage attacking the base as a team.
Shrines are completely invulnerable to damage until at least one pair of [[Base Guardians]] has been destroyed, and are also immune to damage from any source outside their platform.

Like the [[Patron]] and [[Walker|Walkers]], shrines also have backdoor protection, This causes them to constantly regenerate health if there are no [[Trooper|Troopers]] nearby.

Once both shrines have been destroyed, the enemy Patron will become vulnerable to damage.
Once a shrine is destroyed, [[Troopers]] allied to the team that destroyed the shrine become '''Super Troopers''' for that shrine's lane. Blue lane only gets Super Troopers when both shrines are destroyed. Super Troopers gain {{NpcData|trooper_base|ShrinesDownBuffModifier|DamageScale}}% damage, {{#expr: ({{NpcData|trooper_base|ShrinesDownBuffModifier|HealthScale}} - 1) * 100 }}% health, and yield 15% less souls when killed. Once both Shrines have been destroyed, the enemy Patron will become vulnerable to damage.

Shrines are defensive Structures located in pairs within each team's base. They are the final objectives that must be destroyed before the Patron can be damaged.
The Hidden King shrine resembles a speaker tower with three large loudspeakers and three smaller ones, all mounted on an inscribed hexagonal platform with a candle placed at each point. A glowing magical symbol sits at the center of the speakers. The shrine is primarily colored orange to match the Hidden King’s theme, and it faces the Hidden King patron, appearing to transmit sound waves toward it.
In contrast, the Archmother shrine takes the form of a blue-lit platform, fitting the Archmother theme, topped by a book stand holding a magical tome. A hexagon is also inscribed on the platform, surrounded by magical sigils and inscriptions. The book periodically flips open and appears to emit magical energy directed toward the Archmother patron.
Shrines are found in pairs within each team's base, located on opposite sides to each other. The Patron will defend any that are under attack with a beam that deals damage and curses players in or near the Shrine platform. Shrines start with 5000 HP. When one shrine is destroyed, the other shrine's HP is increased to 10000.
Shrines are completely invulnerable to damage until at least one pair of Base Guardians has been destroyed, and are also immune to damage from any source outside their platform.
Additionally, like Base Guardians, Shrines have enemy scaling Bullet Resist. It starts at 60%, losing 20% per enemy hero nearby, up to 0% minimum for 3 or more heroes. This is added multiplicatively to the base Bullet Resist.
Once a shrine is destroyed, Troopers allied to the team that destroyed the shrine become Super Troopers for that shrine's lane. Blue lane only gets Super Troopers when both shrines are destroyed. Super Troopers gain 60% damage, 40% health, and yield 15% less souls when killed. Once both Shrines have been destroyed, the enemy Patron will become vulnerable to damage.
Shrine is now easier to kill for the first one and harder for the second. HP from 8100 to 5000/10000 (HP updates after the first one dies, like Walkers)
Shrines attack no longer hits heroes under the shrine
Middle Lane troopers now gets upgraded when either of the shrines die, rather than only when both die (Wiki note: Based on testing, this seems to have been reverted in an undocumented change)
Shrines bounty increased from 0 to 2000
Added "0 Way" veils underneath the Shrine platforms in each base
Latin inscription on the throneThe backrest of the throne in the old shrine, as well as the sign worn by the Guardian, featured the following Latin text
EN SACRIFICIUM CUSTOS LAPIDIS CORDE DIVINO OBLATUM TESTAMENTUM IN CHORO VIRTUTIS ET OBSEQUIL IN UMBRIS HUIUS THRONI RESONAT LEGATUM EORUM QUI AUSI SUNT CAELOS LACES SERE SOLUM INVENIRE FORTUNAM IN SACRIFICIO DESINATAM. HIC THRONUS MEMORIALE STET OPORTET ET POTEN TISSIMUM ORDINEM COELESTE ADORARE
In English this approximately translates to
Behold the sacrifice, the guardian of the stone offered with a divine heart-a testament. In the chorus of virtue and obedience, in the shadows of this throne, resounds the legacy of those who dared to challenge the heavens, only to find fortune destined in sacrifice. This throne must stand as a memorial, and it is fitting to worship the most powerful celestial order.
