Arcane Essence Consumption

• Players have an invisible "Damage Progress Meter" that is tracked for them when inflicting damage in Aspect Gear, and when the meter reaches 100%, the character will lose 1 Arcane Essence Charge (and the meter will reset to 0%)
• The rate Arcane Essence consumption for Aspect Gear is 1 Arcane Essence for every (3000 - (30 * Tier Level)) Damage Dealt
• Any bonuses the players have towards reducing Arcane Essence Consumed (such as Weekly Server Region Bonuses) will reduce the amount the Meter increased by that much

Example:

• A player wearing Tier 10 Fire Aspect armor inflicts 500 damage, which will result in the meter filling up (500 / (2000 - (10 * 30))) = 29.4%

Warning Notification

• Players can specify the exact point at which they will be warned when their Arcane Essence Charges remaining on their character drops below that number
• The "Warn When Below" value indicates the specific point where a notification message and sound will be generated for the player
• Clicking the "Set" button in the Aspect Mastery menu will launch a menu where players can type in a specific number they want to be warned at
• Players can then click the "Set Target" button in the pop up window to accept the new Target Number
