Regeneration
Regeneration
What would anyone think of a regeneration spell? While cast, you regenerate hp twice or three times as much but mana regeneration is cut by 1/3? I think this would be a hp = to being drunk for magic users, well again just an idea I had.
Actually, I would like to see a skill or spell that allows a transfer of one to the other. As in, I have 500/500hp and 250/500m, then, presto-chango, I have 250/500 hp and 500/500 mana. Or the other way around. Have syntax to control it in units or full and direction.
Maybe, to keep it "fair", if the spell fails, you lose some amount of each?
And I really hope I am not novelly sugesting something that already exists
Or maybe we should all make a level 50 druid battery. (kidding! Don't injure me!)

Transform energy is actually mana -> hp, not vice versa. costs 5 mana to cast, plus 1 mana per hp filled... will entirely fill the target's hps or will fill until the caster runs out of mana.
I would not mind seeing a regeneration type spell/skill, nor a meditation, but they would have to be non-cumulative with drunkenness (and, likely not be as effective, either, unless drawbacks were built into using them).
On a separate note, I did build exactly these ideas (that I mentioned) into the human proposal (in the race forum somewhere, I'm too lazy to look). Of course, they have drawbacks, and still aren't as effective as being drunk...

Yep, I did novelly suggest a repeat. doh! But how about something that works in the other direction? Or at least an "emoticon" with a burned out bulb...Anakin wrote:There's transform energy where if you have 750/500hp and 250/500mana, it transfers your additional 250hp to mana.

It is a glitch, but here's how it works and why it's broken.Anakin wrote:Code: Select all

If you have 200/300 hp and 500/500 mana. The code says "You have 200 mana out of 300, so I need to add 100 to hp and subtract 100 from mana to reach the max hp. (the code will always add to hp and subtract from mana).
When you get the case of 400/300 mana and 200/300 mana, what happens is the mud says you have 400 out of 300 mana so I need to add -100 mana to your hp and subtract -100 from your mana to reach the max hp.
Transform energy always works towards making the currentHP and the maxHP equal. It affects the mana appropriately in order to accomplish it.

The reason we don't have an hp->mana recovery ability is there is NO way to recover mana be it a spell or an item with the exception of time. Alcohol helps the bonus from time, but time is your only recovery method.Kitsune wrote:Yep, I did novelly suggest a repeat. doh! But how about something that works in the other direction?

If you add a spell that enables a transfer of hp->mana then a red pill not only heals hitpoints, but also mana now. A grail heals three times as much, etc. It suddenly becomes extremely easy to "restore" yourself without any effort at all.

OK i think my idea was misunderstood. Im not suggesting a hp -> mana type spell, that would be too easy. Im suggesting an ability that at the cost of mana regeneration being slowed extremly, let hp regenerate faster. I am in favor of drawbacks, like maybe that while this spell is in effect you are resting for that entire time , or something similiar thats like being drunk. I dont know ...its just an idea i thought that might be cool.
