New empowerment strategy?

I guess the general concensus is that bless effects do not change with subsequent empowerment of the pretender or with the pretender's disempowerment by death and being called back?

The items that say something like "1 level nature" or whatever increase the magic path on both the strategic and tactical maps.

The devs have said elsewhere that your blessings are fixed at god creation, so no amount of empowerment or death will effect them.
