A quick trawl through the forums shows that posters think either wisemen never get above 3 piety to declare a warpath because they can't add to their rating by converting or killing heretics, or that they can but it takes forever.
I had the same problem as most posters in that my high piety wiseman snuffed it after only 2 warpaths and the others were never good enough to take over. Around 1610 I flooded Florida with around 20 wisemen to undermine the French authority in that area, meanwhile eliminating the French by 1620 (hope they won't be back anyway). Around 1625 I noticed that 5 out of 8 wisemen left on the peninsula were elders and had 5 piety, as well as 2 who had gone to Mexico and had 4 piety but no elder rating. Woohoo, warpaths galore!(between appropriate rests)
So does raising the Great Spirit rating of a province by a certain amount earn a piety increase, more so the longer they stay there? Indeed has anyone figured out the mechanics of this at all?
