{{souls|Souls}} are a crucial element in ''[[Deadlock]]'', serving both as currency and experience points (XP) for heroes. Players collect souls by various means, including shooting '''Soul Orbs''' released when [[Trooper|Troopers]] die, taking [[Guardian]]s/[[Walker]]s, killing enemy players, and finding '''Unsecured Souls''' in boxes or crates. The amount of souls earned from a kill is a '''Bounty'''. Unsecured souls are added to your total immediately but can drop upon death for other players to collect.

[[Trooper|Troopers]] release souls in '''Soul Orbs''', unless they are killed by a [[Melee Attack]]. They drop two orbs on death, one that floats and one that falls on the ground. The floating orb has 40% of the kill bounty and the ground orb has 60%. The ground orb cannot be denied (they appear as white to enemies) and remains for 18 seconds before disappearing (scaling to 40 seconds after 10 minutes).  
[[Trooper|Troopers]] release souls in '''Soul Orbs''', unless they are killed by a [[Melee Attack]]. They drop two orbs on death, one that floats and one that falls on the ground. Each orb has {{#expr:{{DataProp|Convar|citadel_trooper_instant_gold_ratio_postlaning}}*100}}% of the kill bounty. The ground orb cannot be denied (they appear as white to enemies) and remains for 18 seconds before disappearing (scaling to 40 seconds after 10 minutes).  


The floating orbs spawn dark-colored, and can be shot and confirmed (or denied) once they light up. Ally orbs are green and enemy orbs are orange. Hitting an enemy orb will deny their souls and grant them to the player who hit it and nearby allies. The ally team has a "grace period" of roughly 80ms to confirm their orbs. If the orb "pops" without being claimed after roughly 1 second, it's automatically rewarded to nearby allies, and if there are no allies nearby the souls are lost.

When a Trooper is killed, 60% of the Trooper's souls drop as a ground orb that flies to allies within 18m and remains on the ground for 18 seconds (scaling to 40 seconds after 10 minutes), while the remaining 40% fly out as a deniable soul orb that enemies can shoot. Both orbs use Soul distribution among nearby allies; enemy ground orbs are visible but cannot be claimed. Killing the Trooper with a [[Melee Attack|melee attack]] grants 100% of the souls instantly, distributed among nearby allies.
Soul distribution is the same regardless if the Trooper drops a Soul Orb or if it is killed by a melee attack.

Souls earned from killing Denizens and destroying Sinner's Sacrifice machines are '''unsecured''' and are lost on death. If a player dies with at least 150 unsecured souls they will be dropped in a '''Soul Container''', which can be claimed by any player by hitting it with a [[Melee Attack|Heavy Melee]]. Soul Containers will despawn after 3 minutes. These containers are marked with a circle icon on the [[Minimap]] and have a green glow effect. If a player dies with fewer than 150 unsecured souls, no Soul Container will drop—they are permanently lost.

Unsecured souls are converted into secured souls over time, meaning they will no longer be dropped on death. This conversion rate is dynamic:
Unsecured souls are converted into secured souls over time, meaning they will no longer be dropped on death. This conversion rate is dynamic:


* '''Percentage Drain:''' Each second, '''0.5%''' of the player's ''current'' unsecured souls are converted. This means larger amounts of unsecured souls secure faster initially.
* '''Percentage Drain:''' Each second, '''{{#expr:{{DataProp|Convar|citadel_secure_gold_percent}}*100}}%''' of the player's ''current'' unsecured souls are converted. This means larger amounts of unsecured souls secure faster initially.
* '''Base Drain:''' In addition to the percentage, a flat amount is secured every second. This starts at '''1.6 souls/second''' and increases as the match progresses (scaling with the global bounty growth of ~8% per minute).

* After 10 minutes in a match, killing a player whose net worth is above 15% higher than the killer team's average net worth increases that player's [[Death|respawn time]].

* The two players per team with the lowest net worth have a passive gain of souls per second based on the total souls per second gathered by the team ('''2.5%''' and '''1.5%''' for the lowest and second-lowest player, respectively). This occurs after laning phase (8 min).
