I am somewhat confused over the data used to calculate Mana Points.

From the Wiki: A character's maximum mana point capacity is the sum of their Base Mana and Harness Power Bonus.

Base Mana stats for Empaths is Wisdom and Influence. I used info from INFO START and dividing those two stats by 4, per the wiki. Base Mana = trunc[(StatBonus1 + StatBonus2) ÷ 4] WIS 49, INF 62. )(49+62)/4)=27.

Harness Power Bonus = (3 × Harness Power Ranks up to Character Level) + Harness Power Ranks above Character Level.
Level 100. HP ranks are 101. (3x100)+1 means I should have 301 mana from the Harness Power Bonus.

I have 301 mana. The base mana does not seem to be included.

I did a fixstat at Cap. I also just grabbed another rank of HP to see if would readjust the formula. It did not. I now have 302 mana.

So.. either...
a) The wiki is incorrect and base mana plays no part in Mana Capacity.
b) doing a fixstat somehow wonkied (it's a word, trust me) up my Base Mana formula.
c) some other option I am not aware of.

It's based upon your starting stat bonus.

Ok, Fair enough. I used the INFO START (per the wiki) and that data is not there. It just shows the starting stats.

I guess it's safe to assume those bonuses, bonusi?, are low and divided by 4.. I should be grateful she is not losing mana at this point. That's why it adds nothing to her Max Mana.

Thank you for clearing that up. I appreciate your time.
