Question about Meditation

chave982 · 30th June 2007, 07:22 PM

My Focus is at 100, and my Meditation is at 99.0. My question is, how come the meditation still doesn't work sometimes? It seems like anytime I try to use it when my mana is less than 40, I get a message that says "You are unable to focus your concentration".

I would think that with this high a level of meditation, I shouldn't be experiencing this problem. Does anyone know the cause of this?

It's been a problem with Meditation for as long as I can remember.

General rule - Don't attempt to Meditate if your Mana pool - Current Mana >= Meditation skill - 10.

Examples

40/120 Mana with 100 Meditation = Very good chance to meditate (probably will never fail)
30/120 Mana with 100 Meditation = Good chance to meditate (70-80%)
20/120 Mana with 100 Meditation = Moderate chance to meditate (40-60%)
0/120 Mana with 100 Meditaiton = VERY Small chance to meditate (5-10%)

there is a purported fix by leurocian, but it has not made it into the publish schedule yet. The problem actually came about once we could take our int over 100.
