Plus they give a conquest if you visit all of them.


...mostly people use them to res though.

Shrine's are an integral part of the Ultima world; they are the physical presence of their corresponding virtue: Sacrifice, Spirituality, Compassion, Honor, Honesty, Justice, Valor and Humility. The original dungeons serve as a counter-weight to these.

These virtues are at the heart of the Ultima lore. In the past shrines and the ankhs meant something, not just slovenly dropped all over the world as a way for people to res.
