Hey, I have a few questions about empaths for a script I'm working on.
Is the fatigue drain for taking a wound static, or does it change with the severity of the wound? Or the number of pulses?
I know regen can't heal all wounds until you hit 400 PM. Until then, it heals some wounds more than others. What wounds are harder (meaning regen won't heal a relatively lower level of injury)? Internal scars especially seem difficult as it leaves me with occasional twitching. Are the head and eyes more difficult as well? Anything else?
Also, what spell would you use with 350 PM to train the best? GOL seems to work well, but I'm wondering if there are any tricks I might not have thought of.
Finally, somewhat unrelated: Do ranks in instruments contribute to shifting ability at all? How about towards circling?

>>Is the fatigue drain for taking a wound static, or does it change with the severity of the wound? Or the number of pulses?
Pretty sure it's going to be dependant on the number of pulses or how long you have to hold the link (and how many), this indirectly relates to the severity of the wound obviously.
>>I know regen can't heal all wounds until you hit 400 PM.
Regen starts to work pretty ok around 300 when it starts healing nerve damage.
>>Also, what spell would you use with 350 PM to train the best?
I use GoL outside of combat and Lethargy in combat.
>>Do ranks in instruments contribute to shifting ability at all?
No
>>How about towards circling
No

You are Shrimpstar, a Prydaen Bard.
You have pointed ears and cat-slitted clear colored eyes. Your amber mane is short and thick, and is worn tousled. You have grey fur and a slender tail.
You look tired.
You are wearing nothing special.

Number of links in effect might also play a factor in regards to fatigue. I don't really see any result beyond almost no fatigue taken at all to all of it taken faster than a Refresh pulse can restore it, so it's hard for me to be sure on this point.
>>Until then, it heals some wounds more than others. What wounds are harder (meaning regen won't heal a relatively lower level of injury)?
By 150s in the two magic skills, Regen heals everything severe-level or less with absolutely no problem other than the slow nature of its randomization, which is the break point until 300 or 400 (whenever you can heal worse stuff instead of just also nerves). Also, regeneration gets increasingly more useless the closer you get to insignificantly injured, forcing you to suffer through several iterations of the spell before finally reaching a completely healed state (ie, nothing showing on HEALTH).
It's rather like how a group spell works. Lots of targets = Regeneration becomes powerful, few targets = Regeneration mostly just wasting your mana.
J'Lo, I'm a ranger.. I'd believe anything.....

This is sort of right and the other responses were correct, but just to clarify:
Below 301 PM, Regen will heal wounds below severe (deep slashes for an external wound) on all locations of the body except nerves.
Between 301 and 401 PM, Regen will also heal nerve wounds below severe-level.
At 401 PM you get the added option of CAST ALL which will allow Regen to work on all wounds regardless of severity.
Yes the thresholds are 301 and 401, not 300 and 400.
Although Regen will act on any wound as described above, the amount of wound that gets healed with each pulse of the spell does seem dependent on body location, as well as PM. For example, a deep cuts wound on a hand might take only two pulses to heal all the way, while an internal eye scar of equal severity might take five or six pulses to heal completely.

>>is head abdomen neck and back internal scars of minor strength suppose to be immune or is it also a pm/harness thing?
It's a mana thing. I dunno exactly how it's figured (ie, broad category--internal or external/wound or scar, specific location--head/neck/etc, or severity), but each thing requires a certain amount of mana. If you don't have that much or more held, then the thing that would have been healed doesn't get healed.

around 150ish magic regen heals deep cuts and down except on a few of the harder to heal places (eyes, head, ect.)
