Meditation

Summary

• Maximum mana regen rate possible is 1 mana restored every 0.5 seconds
• Minimum mana regen rate possible is 1 mana restored every 8 seconds
• Baseline mana regen rate is 1 mana restored every 2 seconds
• Mana regen rate is increased by (100% * (Meditation skill / 100))
• Mana regen rate is increased by (100% if player is actively meditating)
• Mana regen rate is penalized by (2% * (player's Total Armor Meditation Penalty))
• A player's Total Armor Meditation Penalty is equal to the combined Meditation Penalties of all armor worn
• Each piece of armor a player wears has an Meditation Penalty equal to it's (Armor Location Penalty * Armor Material Penalty)

Armor Location Penalty

• Shield: 35% Penalty
• Chest: 35% Penalty
• Legs: 22% Penalty
• Arms: 15% Penalty
• Helmet: 14% Penalty
• Gloves: 7% Penalty
• Gorget: 7% Penalty

Armor Material Penalty

0% Penalty Wearing No Armor, or Leather Armor, or a Buckler, or a Wooden Shield	20% Penalty Studded Armor or Wooden Kite Shield	40% Penalty Bone Armor or Metal Shield
60% Penalty Ringmail Armor or Bronze Shield	80% Penalty Chainmail Armor or Metal Kite Shield	100% Penalty Platemail Armor, Heater Shield, or Chaos/Order Shield

   

For example:a player wearing a suit of all studded leather but with a platemail gorget would have:

(.35 * .20) + (.22 * .20) + (.15 * .20) + (.14 * .20) + (.07 * .20) + (.07 * 1.0)) = 25.6% Total Armor Penalty.

Which would result in a (2 * 25.6%) = -51.2% effect on their Mana Regen rate.
