A '''large stele''' is a purely decorative [[Miscellaneous]] structure. A stele provides less [[beauty]] than most [[sculptures]] and require more resources, but have no [[quality]]. | A '''large stele''' is a purely decorative [[Miscellaneous]] structure.

Large steles add [[beauty]] to its surroundings. The beauty rating is added to the single, bottom-left-most tile a pawn can see. Despite their size, they do not count as a [[wall]]. | Large steles add [[beauty]] to its surroundings. The beauty rating is added to the single, bottom-left-most tile a pawn can see.

− | + | ==Analysis== | |
+ | Steles are less beautiful when compared to [[sculpture]]s, even of the same material, with the only redeeming aspect being their higher HP and lack of [[quality]]. | ||
− | + | For the same cost as a single grand stele, you can construct {{#expr: {{P|Resource 1 Amount}}/{{Q|Small sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}} }} [[small sculpture]]s. Small sculptures have {{#expr: {{Q|Small sculpture|Beauty Base}}*0.5}} beauty at Poor quality, and even a Skill 0 artist will average {{#expr: {{P|Resource 1 Amount}}/{{Q|Small sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}} * 0.3535 round 1}} Poor quality or better sculptures with the same resource investment. At even modest Art levels, you'll be more efficient (in time, stone blocks, ''and'' space) by making sculptures. | |

− | + | Compared to [[grand stele]]s, large steles take half the resource cost and half the work, for half the beauty and HP. Large steles are slightly more efficient for space, as 2 large steles take 8 tiles (compared to a grand stele's 9). | |
− | + | ===As a construction=== | |
+ | Steles have some merit in training the construction skill. Have a pawn work on the stele, and right before it finishes, cancel the construction. You will get 75% of the resources back, and your pawn will have spent a lot of time constructing. In order to maximize building speed, slow your pawn as much as possible, by putting them in [[light|darkness]]. | ||
− | + | You may need to build steles for a [[Quests#Build_Monument|Momument quest]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, in which they act as a time and resource sink. | |
− | + | Steles may be found in [[ruins]] throughout the map, where they can be used for a slight beauty bonus, or for meditation. | |
