Manasurge rune balance
Posted: Thu May 19, 2011 8:03 pm
I think that Manasurge runes, as they currently are, are unbalanced. They make resource management far too easy for mana users, without equivalent effects being available to everyone else. In order to balance this for all classes, I would replace manasurge runes with the following two inscriptions:
Rune: Mystical Energy Surge
Recovers (30-90) mana instantly, and increases mana regeneration to (600-1800)% of base for 10 turns. 30% chance of the rune being generated with each of the following:
+(10-30) positive energy, +(1.0-3.0) regeneration.
+(8-24) negative energy, +(0.8-2.4) regeneration.
-(30-90) paradox, -(3.0-9.0) regeneration.
+(15-45) vim, +(1.5-4.5) regeneration.
Infusion: Natural Energy Flow
Recovers (20-60) stamina instantly, and increases stamina regeneration to (600-1800)% of base for 10 turns. 30% chance of the rune being generated with each of the following:
-(5-15) equilibrium, -(0.5-1.5) regeneration.
+(1-3) hate, +(0.1-0.3) regeneration.
+(8-24) psi, +(0.8-2.4) regeneration.
Another solution would be to remove manasurge and equivalent runes entirely, and make mages rely on manaflow and natural regeneration, much like everyone else. Thoughts/ideas/worries?
