    Nice guide but just a thing about this :
    SITTING DOES NOTHING FOR YOUR MP REGEN, IT JUST PREVENTS YOU FROM MOVING OR CASTING. STOP DOING IT >:C.
    /sit itself doesn't help for the mp regen BUT when you use it, you stop to be in "fighting mode" to be in "passive mode" so your first mp regen tick will start right after you did the /sit (it's not always the case when you stand, especially if you did an action or if you took a dmg).

    I'm not sure if im clear about this because english is not my first language but /sit does help with the MP regen (of course only for the first tick, as soon you got it, you can stand up) because you got your MP tick faster

    Ok, so I wanted to be absolutely sure I was correct on this so I went out and tested this again this morning and took video. I am correct, sitting does absolutely nothing for your MP regen, standing in place gives the exact same returns and doesn't prevent you from moving or casting.

    Currently editing and uploading the video, I'll post it here once it's done.

    This is an outstanding guide. Thanks for all the information on Enhancing Magic and its exact values per level of potency.

    yes, standing in place gives the exact same returns but you can have the first tick faster with sit (if you did an action or if you took a dmg the first tick will start later). Like i said its only nice for the first tick, you dont have to /sit full time to recovry your MP.

    No, it doesn't give you the first tic faster. It's the same speed: 2 battle tics (for WHM it's 3 per tic because of Auto-refresh) then your first resting tic. In the video both sitting and standing gave me 3-3-35 returns.

    One of the reasons people think that sitting does this is because of the amount of time it takes for the sitting animation to happen. During this time you'll usually get 2 tics (which are the battle tics) then as soon as the animation finishes you start getting your resting tic. This makes it seem like sitting gives you that resting tic immediately, but in actuality it's the exact same returns as standing in place.
