    Auto Refresh

    As the title states this thread is about auto refresh. I would like to point out that i feel like this trait is completely useless and worthless. The 3 mp every 2 secs does nothing when your spells cost 300+ mp. I would like to see this trait be replaced or made stronger.

    Yea even though its always activated. It still seems somewhat useless when you need several hundred mp to cast one spell.
    In a pinch Auto-refresh will not save you, nor a ether, unless you are like 10mp short =/

    THM/BLM can get ballads now from a bard, which is helpful, atleast with this I can get by during group play.

    Auto-Refresh is helpful because its cummulative. Not in a pinch, as you said, but as you keep running/casting/getting hit, it adds up.

    Darklight cowl has a +3 refresh effect and I imagine they plan to add more refresh gear in the future.

    I do agree with you that +3 is pretty low but as the above post says its accumulative so it does add up over a 5-10 minute fight.

    Edit:- Bleh thats only 450mp for a 10 minute fight, 900 with darklight cowl.

    Edit 2:- its 3 every 2 secs ?, I though a tick in this game was closer to 4 secs.

    Oh yes i understand. But I guess im more addressing the fact that say I run out of MP or I am 50 MP short. Mob needs 1 more hit. I have barely any HP left. The few MP it provides won't help. However, the only reason i have any mp left is due to Auto-Refresh. (O.o);;

    I guess its kinda like is the cup half empty or half full.

    this wont happen cause for vercion 2.0 they maybe lower all max status as was before where your max mp will be like 700-1200 and spells will come down to mp cost as a result they just goin to add new suport jobs as bard to cover thsi deficince on the lontime periot fights like hyper NM coming planed on future

    Even with 900 mp after 10 mins that covers like 1/12 spells for thm maybe 3 for cnj that's not a lot.

    that would be better cause 3 mp isn't even 1% lol. I honestly forgot i had the skill still i took my wand out by mistake the other day and watched my mp go up super slow lol. I'd rather much have a skill the increases the rate mages recover mp while resting.

    Yea 1% would be about 32 mp per tick, that's about the same as Ballad of Magi.
