Description

When checking for infos about MCL i noticed different sources telling something about increased values for mcl around patch 1.59-1.60

On uthgard we have older/lower values than as for 1.59

Reproduction Steps

1. Log uthgard, get mcl 1 - 2 - 3
2. Burn your power to 0%
3. Use MCL 1 - 2 - 3
4. Compare values
5. Compare with live post 1.59 sources

Intended Behavior

Adjust values for mcl 1/2/3 if possible .

[quote]Mystic Crystal Lore (MCL) - This spell gives you a "good amount" of power, is on a 5 minute timer and costs 3 points. I [color=#00BF00]use the term "good amount" because the amount of power it gives you depends on several things including your current power level and the level of MCL you have (there are 3). If you use MCL I when you have nearly half your power, it will come close to filling your power bar. If you have less than half, you will receive less power. MCL II (6 points) gives roughly 75% and MCL III (10 points) will give you a full 100%.[/color] Keep in mind that you have to purchase MCL I before MCL II, etc.

I would buy MCL as soon as you get your first 3 realm skill points. It will help you immensely with power (especially when rezzing).[/quote]

Now ?!

[quote]if you make the choice you MCL 2 peus definitely pass you to serénité . 70% of mana in your bar is not a shabby regene that will help you[/quote]

[quote]
I will not complain but when we left yesterday on Galla, and even IF in general, when I run MCL1, I end up with 60% more mana instead of 30%. I have not noticed this bug in the world of classical Daoc.

Honestly, you could say: "good", but I just want to know if I was the only one to have this bug?[/quote]

[quote]this is not a bug, it's a change in the version 1.59 or 1.58 ... I seek sources brb[/quote]

[quote] j'ai pas vu de modif de Science du Crystal mystique autre que la correction d'un bug qui parfois faisait qu'on ne pouvait pas l'utiliser si un autre membre du groupe est en combat
Pourtant SCM2 me donne 2x plus de mana qu'avant (dans les 70% maintenant)[/quote]

Ench at 0% power, he uses MCL2 and got back to 70%+

Ench at 0%, using a powerpot(recovers about 25-30%) followed by mcl2 ... 100%
