Re: Dominion
Check the shape of the dominion spread. If it is more or less symmetrical, you are probably dealing with temple checks.
if not, you are probably dealing with stealthy preachers, belphagor etc.
Generally speaking, mass your sceptics in a border province with little dominion. Your chances of building a firewall are MUCH greater than trying to knock down high enemy dominion.
Beware dominion based globals.
If you are using my typical arco build, you can use melancholia to knock off a couple of crucial dominion points.
Consider casting telistic animations - these are l2 priests as I recall. Which doesn't sound very impressive - however, 2 or three castings a turn can rapdly build up a large number of priests without using your fort builds.
finally if it is blood sacrificing - go after the root cause - blood hunting. Wild hunt can be OK early in the game, so can anything that increases unrest, or decreases population.
