    I'm not sure if I'm understanding the new MP regen mechanics. I get that we will not be constantly regenning MP while in passive mode and casting. But about the "incurring enmity" line in the notes, does this mean we will not be able to regen mana once we start a battle? Once we take our first action, we will have enmity from then on. Or do they mean if an enemy is actually attacking you? I really hope we don't have to start relogging to reset enmity to regen mana.

    Correct, it seems that if a monster is attacking you, even if you're standing still, you won't regen HP or MP. Everyone else would be able to regen. "HP and MP will automatically recover only while the player is stationary, regardless of whether or not he/she is engaged in battle."

    Incurring means acquiring so unless DoT generate enmity and you have a DoT in effect (I don't believe they do generate enmity at this time), then you are not incurring enmity just because you have engaged and incurred some already.

    It is a present participle of an action verb. Unless you are "doing it" in the moment, you are not technically incurring enmity.

    Though it was already clear they changed it:

    HP and MP will automatically recover only while the player is stationary, regardless of whether or not he/she is engaged in battle. The amount of HP and MP recovered will increase based on the amount of time a player remains stationary.
    The recovery amount will reset under the following conditions:

    The player is attacked
    The player moves or performs an action
