In Lineage II, the Elven Elder, Shillien Elder, and some pets can restore the mana of other characters at their
own expense. To do this, they use the skill
Recharge
Lv. 1
.
Also, some skills in the game increase the efficiency of mana restoration. These include:
The skill
Recharge
Lv. 1
restores the target's mana points.
The amount of restored mana depends on:
The skill cannot be used on a character with the Recharge skill. Exception: Pets can restore mana to a character with the Recharge skill.
Pay attention!
For the
Recharge
Lv. 1
skill, there is a limit on the maximum amount of restored
mana — 170% of the skill's power.
If the skill magic level is lower than the target's level by 6 or more, mana restores with a penalty — the amount of mana received is reduced by 10% for each level of difference.
You can see the magic level in the skill description. The magic level increases when you improve (enchant) the skill.
The last skill level is learned at level 74. After the character receives the 3rd profession, the skill becomes available for improvement (enchanting).
Mana Gain
Lv. 1
increases the amount of mana the character will receive from recharge skills.
Due to the limitation on the maximum amount of mana restored, the skill's effectiveness varies depending on the target's class. To illustrate this, let's consider an example.
The party comprises level 66 characters: Spellsinger, Bladedancer, Prophet, Bishop and Shillien Elder.
Class | Imposed buffs | Mana received |
---|---|---|
Spellsinger |
![]() ![]() |
122+75+25 = 222, which is over the limit The character will receive 207 mana |
Bladedancer |
![]() ![]() |
122+48+25 = 195 mana |
Prophet |
![]() ![]() |
122+48+25 = 195 mana |
Bishop |
![]() |
122+25 = 147 mana |
The last skill level is learned at level 79, after which the skill becomes available for improvement (enchanting).
In the original game, only the Kookaburra pet, which evolved at level 55, can restore mana.
On MasterWork servers, all "baby" pets that evolved at level 55 can restore mana - Kookaburra, Cougar, Buffalo.
All Improved Pets restore mana equally. The Mana Regeneration skill appears at level 55 and improves every 5 levels. Mana Regeneration is applied automatically when the owner's mana is less than 80%. The skill is used even in peace mode.
The amount of mana restored depends on the pet's level:
Pay attention!
If the level difference between the master and the pet exceeds 15, the skill incurs a penalty, resulting in reduced mana restoration.
If the level difference between the master and the pet exceeds 24, the skill will no longer restore mana.
The Elven Elder and Shillien Elder classes can actively restore their mana through pets.
This requires an Improved Pet and the skill
Mana Gain
Lv. 1
.
Use the Mana Gain skill on your pet to restore its mana. Although you must spend mana to replenish your pet's mana, the amount of mana you receive in return exceeds what you spent. This advantage comes from the difference between the mana consumed and the mana restored.
For example, let's consider a situation where a level 75 Shillien Elder restores mana to a level 75 pet:
For 10 recharges Shillien Elder will spend 1360 mana, the pet will receive 2210 mana. For the received mana, the pet can restore the owner's mana ~14 times. In this way, the pet "stores" mana.
If you don't forget to restore your pet's mana during the game, then the overall "volume" of Shillien/Elven Elder mana increases significantly, increasing the effectiveness of these classes.
