- “ Come on, boys. Won't you shake a poor sinners hand? ”
Description[]
Vow of Mastery is a Talent which allows the user to make other players into subjects and issue commands to those subjects. While any player can be a subject (so long as they don't already have a master), the Talent is required to become a master, and has a requirement of 20 Charisma.
How to Use[]
Confirmation menu when accepting a Vow of Mastery.
To become a master, you must ask a player:
"Wanna make a vow of mastery [First Name]?"
Additionally, you can also use the Vow of Mastery tool and click on "Offer a Vow of Mastery".
The player must respond positively ("yes" "sure" "alright" etc.) After responding so, the subject will have a menu appear which warns them and lets them accept or decline the vow. Once accepted, an animation of shaking hands will play and the player will become your Subject. You can now use commands on them, by typing them into chat or use the Vow of Mastery tool. However, most of the more useful commands must be unlocked through additional Talents, which require more Charisma.
Subjects cannot undo the vow without making a wish at Yun'Shul or wiping, and can only have one master, making the decision relatively permanent.
In addition to using the name of a specific Subject, commands can use the names "all " or "everyone" to affect all Subjects, but this doesn't work for all commands, and will still be used on one subject.. Multiple commands can be stacked in a single message, for example the command "[Name], say I will sleep now." will both cause the Subject to sleep, and also say "I will sleep now."

Trivia[]
- All commands excluding Leech, Locate, Return, Sacrifice and Live have no maximum range, and can be issued from any point on the map.
- If a Subject or Master is in a bad situation away from allies, Live and Run or Sacrifice and Return may be used to stall time or win depending on the distance away from the Master.
- As long as you have alts, you may use Vow of Mastery to improve a bossraid. You can hide a bunch of alts in an nearby location and sacrifice them for HP whenever you need it. Alternatively, you can raise one alt to have high Charisma and use it to tell your main to live. The second method is recommended as you will not need to train Charisma on your main, plus "live" counts as a revive.
- This method is currently highly ineffective as commands such as Live and Sacrifice now have significant range caps, making it exceedingly difficult to hide alternate accounts nearby in ganks.
- You can still make the Vow of Mastery in Fragments of Self, however no commands work there.
- Mentioning any command in any part of a sentence will cause its effect. Example: "I could just explode all"
- Trying to use the say command to force a vow to say "Sorry [Name]" or "My bad [Name]" won't work.
- Similarly using the say command to force your vow to use a Roblox chat command will make them say it, but not use it, for example: "[Name] say /e dance" will make the subject say "/e dance" but they won't start dancing.
- The leech command will always drain the subject of all their ether, no matter if the master has 40%, 50%, 60% or even 99% ether.
- If a Vow Master (A) has a Vow on another Vow Master (B), (A) can use their commands on (B)'s Subjects and (B) themselves (granted that both are in the same server).
- Locate command highlights the whole player model, including a thresher if they mounting it, or if they are disguised as a campfire.
