Mana

Is there a reason why you regen less mana as you gain rank? For instance high 20's and low 30's I could average 100 sleeping/tick. In high 30's it drops to an average of 75 sleeping/tick. This is all with mastered 105% meditation and no trance. Any thoughts?

Maybe to give lowbie mages a little help ranking... when everything useful still costs 30 and you've only got a few hundred, it's nice not having to sleep after every fight.

Mana regeneration rates can change, depending on a few things. One factor would be... where would the fun be if I told you? Check "where" and "score" every once in a while.

ah!, completely forgot about that

also, maybe its me...not sure..but it seems if you sleep on two consecutive tic's you regen more mana health the 2nd tic than the 1st.

also if you think about it...like pre lvl 5 arent you 100% full on water and food 100% of the time...while post lvl 5 or so you are almost never at 100%...doesnt hunger thirst gradually effect health+mana regen in a scaling pattern?

Yes. As you get more hungry/thirsty your regen rate goes down. There is also a mana regen bonus for lower tiers, it isnt just about what area you are in and such.

One more question, I'm not sure if this is an answerable question, but does luck affect mana gain?

Are you a Paladin ?

Paladins regen a lot less.

Also some spells might be draining your mana regen.

Even some you would never think so.

Area effects helps.

Yes random luck helps mana gain,( im not refering to the stat luck ).

I'd be surprised if the stat luck didnt affect the regen also, even if just slightly. I'd be surprised if there is ANYTHING that it doesnt affect at all

I've heard it before; luck affects everything.
