![]() ![]() As I understand how it all works, every 10 points of Meditation is effectively 1 MR in addition to the MR property. ![]() Similarly, every 20 points of Focus is another 1 MR. So his total MR is normally 21 + 10 + 4, or 35. Turning on active Meditation doubles its effect, raising the sum to 45. So instead of the effective rate being doubled, it only increases by 10/35, or a little less than 29%. I would not call that useless, except that turning on active meditation after scribing has a long wait period with no visual indication of when you can actually use it. If you try to activate it too quickly, yet another delay is added on top of your original delay. Until I stopped bothering with active Meditation, I was doing a slow count to 15 ("one one hundred, two one hundred" etc) before activating it. Sometimes even that wasn't enough (I guess I counted too fast), and the 2nd delay was activated. The whole process was too obnoxious for words, and within those 15 seconds he would have over 50 mana anyway and was ready to attempt scribing the next scroll. His current success rate on 8th circle scrolls is 38.2%, so he fails a lot. Usually the EC does a very good job of indicating when a skill becomes available. You have made the rules for activating Meditation so ponderous that providing such visual indication is probably too much work. That's a clear sign this needs to be simplified. How about, when peaceful, 6 seconds since last activity besides walking and the like, but 12 seconds if engaged in battle. Don't double down on the delay if a player attempts to activate it prematurely. ![]() Yes, a player should be calm before commencing meditation, but not at the cost of adding new aggravation. ![]()
