Max Mana Calculation

(Wis or Int) = Use Wisdom if your a Wisdom caster use Int if your an Int caster.



If this is true . . . ((( (Wis or Int) - 199 ) / 2) > 0)
-Then set MindLesserFactor = ( (Wis or Int) - 199 ) / 2

If this is false . . . ((( (Wis or Int) - 199 ) / 2) > 0)
-Then set MindLesserFactor = 0


MindFactor = WisInt - MindLesserFactor

If this is true . . . (WisInt > 100)
-Then Max Mana is . . . = (((5 * (MindFactor + 20)) / 2) * 3 * (Your Current Level) / 40)

If this is false . . . (WisInt > 100)
-Then Max Mana is . . . = (((5 * (MindFactor + 200)) / 2) * 3 * (Your Current Level) / 100)

After You have calculated your Max Mana then add in all your items that give you +Mana. This will give you your mana.


Example: I am a 23 Necro with 123 Int and i get 135+ mana from items.

123 - 199 / 2 = -38

-38 is not greater then zero so we set MindLesserFactor to 0

MindFactor = 123

123 is larger then 100 so I am going to use this formula (((5 * (MindFactor + 20)) / 2) * 3 * (Your Current Level) / 40)

(((5 * (123+ 20)) / 2) * 3 * (23) / 40) = 616

Then we add my Manafrom my items which is 135

So 751 is my Max Mana

Note: This was tested on Blue with 2 characters and come out to be true. Figure this would be helpful on Green/Teal as you dont know how much mana you have. This is also a good way to know how Wisdom/Int effects your character based on your level.

I have done some calculations for this myself and was looking for official numbers. I use Magelo right now testing some stuff and I think it is using Blue Formula and Green Formula is different.

On Magelo if I go above 200 WISDOM it diminishes the mana you get but it does not go to 1 mana per wis which on Green I believe is the case. I went from 200 WIS today on Green to 218 with a buff and with a new item and when I cast a 300 mana spell, I lose 14% mana every time, whether I am at 200 WIS or 218 WIS .


Using your formula.

(200 - 199) / 2 = 0.5

0.5 is greater than zero so set MindLesserFactor = 0.5

MindFactor = 200 - 0.5 = 199.5

199.5 is larger than 100 so formula:
(((5 * (199.5+20)) / 2) * 3 * (50) / 40 ) = 2057

I had +35 mana items

2092 mana.

I calculate my mana as 2135 by a basic old formula I found on an old EQ site.
But when I calculate my mana on the fly I have 2143. By watching how much mana I use when I cast a spell.

All are pretty close together though... although the formula you have matches Magelo almost EXACTLY. I suspect the blue formula is definitely what you have posted and I suspect the Green formula is what I found on an old website which is much more simplified because post 200 Wisdom each Wisdom is +1 mana or +0 mana, can't really tell.

My formula for Green mana which seems to be very close to reality is: ((WisOrInt/5)+2)*Level)+ManaItems
I get 2135 for 200 Wisdom and +35 Mana for this formula and as I stated before. When I use a 300 mana spell, it costs 14% of my mana which is 2142 mana. I'd love to know if there is indeed a diff formula for Green era versus Blue from a developer but I am sure we won't hear that -- sometimes the testing mana cost using % on the mana bar is pretty inconclusive.


Great find, sir.
