HSN: ELR - Mana Focus (418) Updated!

[Herachio]

Hi everybody!

In case you missed the discussion earlier in the "Minor Elemental Circle" topic, I'll bring you up to speed. My lawn needs watering, and as far as I know the best way to go about watering your lawn is to add water (I'm a genius)! Now that we've got that out of the way, we can get on to what really matters and may or may not make any sense to you. My lawn is apparently Mana Focus, so I'm gonna go ahead and water it! (In retrospect this was just awful and I'm ashamed of myself, but my delete key is all the way over there and I'm lazy so this is what you get.)

First off, the percentage chance for determining a successful cast of 418 has changed to:
- ((MnE spell ranks / 4) + (Elemental Mana Control ranks / 2) + Aura stat bonus)

There is a 3% base chance of failure no matter what.

Now on to the good part. The WATERING (Okay, can we just call my part of the ELR "The WATERING" now? That would be Ah. Maze. Ing.). Now, on a successful cast of 418, an ADDITIONAL effect is applied to the caster which increases their mana regeneration by 10 if they have at least 10 ranks of Elemental Lore, Water. The duration of the effect is a set number of pulses, using a seed 10 summation of their water lore ranks. So it will last 1 pulse with 10 ranks, 2 pulses with 21 ranks, 3 pulses with 33 ranks, etc.

Remaining stationary is not required to continue to receive the additional lore bonus.

Questions? Comments? Hate? Love? I'm up for all of it.

Water lore makes sense here, at least.

Called it!

Can't say as i'm thrilled with the choice of a Seed 10 summation. That seems far, far too high to be of use to most.

His posts are so cheesy.

This seems like a big time nerf.

From 0 ranks needed for extra mana, now to 10 for 1 single 10 mana pulse?

I could be wrong, but I believe the lore benefit is an entirely additional bonus separate from the initial spell itself.

So if you have no water lore you get no pulse? I wish they would just say in these posts here is the base version of the spell and here is what having lore adds.

Use carabele's chart for example. Its much easier to read. All this seed summation stuff is annoying.

seriously, there needs to be more focus on getting the technicalities accurate vs. some cutesy post.

Why would you use a chart 6 years out of date?

Pretty sure this is in addition to the normal node effect.
