Editing Souls (section)

==Soul Orbs==

Many killed targets will not give Souls to the killer on death, but will instead release Souls in a Soul Orb. These orbs may be attacked in melee or with guns to "confirm" the Souls and grant them to the attacker. If they are not attacked, then the Souls will be granted to the killer automatically after around 3 seconds. 

An opposing player may [[Strategy#Troop Management|deny]] these Souls by attacking the Soul Orb instead. These will grant the Souls to the attacker and '''not''' the original killer.

Soul Orbs can be divided into "local" and "global" Soul orbs:

; Local : These orbs grant Souls to the killer/attacker and are shared with any nearby allies. These are the most common kind of Soul Orb and are gained from killing Troopers and players
; Global : These orbs grant Souls to the entire team of the killer/attacker, often with a boost to the last-hitter. These are earned from destroying [[Guardian]]s and [[Walker]]s as well as turning in the [[Soul Urn]]

===Local Soul Sharing===

When Souls are to be shared, the game checks two distances to add allied heroes to the "pool" of heroes to split the received souls:

* 45m from the soul orb itself when it is broken
* 30m from the hero that killed the Trooper

If an allied hero is within '''either''' of these distances, Souls are shared between the killer and those allied heroes.
