Philophagy is a psychic ritual that transfers skill experience from the target's highest skill to the invoker.
Acquisition[edit]
The philophagy psychic ritual can be performed once every 300,000 ticks (5 in-game days) at a psychic ritual spot at the cost of 1 Shard, once the Philophagy research project has been completed. Note that this research requires dark study to unlock. The ritual takes 10,000 ticks (4 in-game hours) to complete.
