I recently bought the Order of the Paladin and I have no idea how to use it! And how to make sure that it is ready. I am a KID. 8-year-old to be exact. I am not a subscriber. So you might want to help. Please help @Deadpool198, @Eric_Tang, @xython, @Code_Master, @Lydia_Song, @abc, or anybody!

I am pretty sure that the consecrate ability doesn’t require a cooldown, but if it does, then do it like you are cleaving:
```python
if hero.isReady("consecrate"):
hero.consecrate()
```

Using this ability usually works for me. Maybe it only does it if there are skeletons as enemies?

The consecrate ability has no cooldown so you would just do
`hero.consecrate()`
Lydia
P.S. Please do not @ people since some people might be sleeping.

Well, you already have actually. 😄 I don’t mind at all, so long as you _only do it once_. You may be surprised to know @ing me twice does not double the speed with which I reply. Personally, I don’t have live notifications on for the Discourse so you don’t need to worry about waking me up.
As for your question Lydia\_Song is right as far as I know, I haven’t actually got the ring yet, but the ability is like hero.cast(“drain-life”, enemy): it has no cooldown.
You were right to make a new topic for this question, just make sure you don’t also ask the question in other topics.
Thanks
Danny

also in a skeleton swarm use consecrate to heal and defeat za skelies
