The Enlightened Shrine provides a 25% experience bonus for the duration of the effect.

This bonus adds to Nephalem Valor and multiplayer bonuses, and multiples bonuses from Monster Power and equipment, resulting in experience bonuses that are never lower and usually higher than those possible pre-v1.08.

This shrine provides no benefit to players at Paragon 100, though the developers have suggested that it might generate some special bonus for max level characters in the future.


Patch 1.0.8 Improvement

Patch v1.08 improved the function of this shrine by changing it to a multiplicative bonus. [1]

The bonus experience granted by Enlightened shrines is now also calculated multiplicatively.


Shrines in Diablo III

Shrines are randomly-located, randomly-spawned objects that characters can click to receive temporary buffs. Shrine effects pass to all players in the area when they are first triggered. All shrine benefits last for 2 minutes, and characters can benefit from multiple different shrines at once. Shrine bonuses and durations do not stack, and hitting a second shrine of the same type will simply reset the time to the full two minute duration.


Enlightened Shrines in Inferno

Enlightened Shrines could never spawn in Inferno prior to v1.0.5. There was no need for those shrines in Inferno then, since no player could realistically cope with the difficulty at less than the maximum level of 60. This changed in v1.0.4 with the introduction of the Paragon system, where characters began to gain experience for Paragon levels once they reached 60.

The D3 devs didn't think to enable Enlightened shrines in Inferno in v1.0.4, but they realized their oversight and enabled them in Inferno in v1.0.5.[1]

We actually talked about introducing additional Shrine types in the future during a meeting we had earlier today. We’re also currently discussing the possibility of adding the Enlightenment Shrine into Inferno mode since the +XP bonus would be particularly appealing to players working towards their Paragon levels.
