The Sinner’s Sacrifice in Deadlock has received an exciting update, making these breakable slot machines even more rewarding. Here’s everything you need to know about them, including their locations, buffs, and respawn times.
Where to Find Sinner’s Sacrifice in Deadlock
Sinner’s Sacrifice machines appear at the 10-minute mark in every game. Only four machines spawn per match, and they have a distinct appearance: a green center with a golden exterior, indicating the Souls trapped within.
- Spawn Locations:
- Some areas may feature two machines close together.
- Neutral creeps guard each machine location.
You can identify each spawn location by looking for the green circle within a square on your map.
Damage and Rewards
- Each machine can only be damaged through melee attacks.
- Each hit yields 20 to 30 Souls, depending on the match duration.
- Hitting the machine will cause slight self-damage and may provoke nearby creeps, so ensure you have at least 30% HP before attempting to break one, especially early in the game.
- The health bar of the machine is displayed under its name, requiring just over 10 regular hits or five charged attacks to destroy it, which nets you an additional 200 Souls.
Buffs from Sinner’s Sacrifice
After the September 26 patch, breaking a Sinner’s Sacrifice now grants you collectible buffs similar to the Gold Urn. These buffs are permanent for the remainder of the match.
Buffs Before 15 Minutes
- 1.5% Fire Rate
- 3% Weapon Damage
- 15 Bonus Health
- 2 Spirit Power
- 4% Ammo Capacity
Buffs After 15 Minutes
The buffs increase slightly:
- 2% Fire Rate
- 4% Weapon Damage
- 20 Bonus Health
- 3 Spirit Power
- 6% Ammo Capacity
Once you break a Sinner’s Sacrifice, its icon will no longer be visible on the map.
Respawn Times
- Respawn Duration: Sinner’s Sacrifices respawn five minutes after being destroyed. You can recognize their return by the reappearance of the green icon on the minimap.
Are Sinner’s Sacrifices Worth It?
Compared to other sources of Souls, such as the Soul Urn or mid-boss fights, Sinner’s Sacrifice is easier to farm, with the primary challenge being the nearby creeps. While the Souls gained from these machines may not match those from the Soul Urn, they are still a viable farming option—especially if you’re struggling in your lane.
Moreover, the permanent buffs gained from breaking these machines add significant value, allowing you to accumulate enough advantages to rival mid-game items in Deadlock.
Conclusion
The Sinner’s Sacrifice offers valuable rewards and is a strategic target in Deadlock. With easy accessibility, decent farming potential, and permanent buffs, these machines are essential for enhancing your gameplay.
Be sure to keep an eye on the respawn times and capitalize on their benefits to elevate your performance in matches.
