Mechanics
The Corrupted Soul, Divine Flesh, Eternal Youth, Immortal Ambition, and Vaal Pact modifiers have the same effect as the keystones: Corrupted Soul, Divine Flesh, Eternal Youth, Immortal Ambition, and Vaal Pact. Taking the keystones in addition to equipping this item will impart no additional benefit.
Mahuxotl's Machination is the only source so far for Everlasting Sacrifice keyword/keystone passive skill.
This item gives you the following effects:
- Gain 15% of Maximum Life as Extra Maximum Energy Shield
- All Damage taken bypasses Energy Shield
- 50% of Elemental Damage taken as Chaos Damage
- +5% to maximum Chaos Resistance
- Energy Shield Recharge instead applies to Life
- When you reach full Energy Shield, Sacrifice all Energy Shield to gain +5% to all Maximum Resistances for 4 seconds
- Energy Shield starts at zero
- Cannot Recharge or Regenerate Energy Shield
- Lose 5% of Energy Shield per second
- Life Leech effects are not removed at Full Life
- Life Leech effects Recover Energy Shield instead while on Full Life
- Total Recovery per second from Life Leech is doubled
- You have no Life Regeneration
Damage taken as - Mahuxotl's Machination grants Divine Flesh. When combined with Tempered by War, no lightning or cold damage is taken, making it ideal to combine with it. Half of the damage is taken as fire and the other as chaos. This allows the player to completely ignore gearing for Cold or Lightning resistances. See Damage taken as for more information.
Life Recharge - Vaal Discipline will immediately cause Life Recharge to begin and prevent it from being interrupted. Wicked Ward also works; however, it will reduce the Recharge Rate by 40%. BlightwellBlightwell

Maintaining Everlasting Sacrifice
To maintain full uptime of the +5% to all Maximum Resistances, the player's energy shield must reach full at least once every 4 seconds (after which it is sacrificed by the Keystone). Due to the interactions between keystones, it is not possible to regenerate or recharge ES, meaning that instant recovery and leech are the only realistic strategies. The 5% ES degeneration per second must also be overcome if the player cannot fill the entire ES pool in one instance, combining up to 120% of their total ES over 4 seconds.
