I used the first of my respecs for realm abilities today, and i switched from the folowing:

Specc 1
Acuity (int increase 6pts per level) : lvl 3
Mastery of the Art (casting speed 3% inc.) : lvl 2

to Specc option 2
Acuity : lvl 2
Serenity (power regen rate increase) : lvl 3

In the brief time I was on today I conducted the following tests:


Lvl 41 eldritch with 200 INT using specc option 1.
It took 4 min 15 sec to reach full power from zero power.

then I respecced..

Lvl 41 eldritch with 194 INT (less an insignificant 6 due to one less level in Acuity) using specc option 2.
It took 2 min 50 sec to reach full power from zero power.

and the final test..

Lvl 41 eldritch with 194 INT, also benefiting from Bard power song lvl 4.
It took only 1 min 50 sec to reach full power from zero power.


Please keep in mind that the actually effects of serenity will be much better assuming you do not let your power pool drop below half, upon which your power regen rate DRASTICALLY slows. The fastest regen rates were seen once the power pool passed the 50 percent mark, which were 2-4 times faster than the previous 50 percent.

I hope this info helps all you casters and healers who may want to spend points on serenity. Special thanks to Malkovich for doing the timing (since i dont have a clock in my computer room) and thanks to Ailia for the use of her hard earned power song.

I wont be playing for the next week, going outta town. Good luck everyone, I'll be back the 24 th of May.

Thanks for the test results. Saves the rest of us from having to guess. I was going to go for extra acuity, but now I will definitely go for serenity first

I was planning on getting serenity 2 and then checking out some of the other stuff. Now I think I'll go right to serenity 3 before investigating anything else. One of the level 50 enchanters (Vigz.. Vigs.. Vig something) just got our unique ability. If it really makes us near invincible for 15 seconds (its listed as 30, but I could swear I read it was reduced to 15), I might want to get that. Otherwise purge, or one of those heal deals.

OT: As a warden with 6 sec bub running, trying to regen with Serenity II is still very slow. I"m going for Serenity III next. If it doesn't help, its respec time.

Thanks for the stats!

Not that OT. I was gunning for Serenity II for the 8 sec regen and was wondering if I needed to shell out for SerIII before I hit 45 and get 6 sec. Definitely post the effects that SerIII has with your 6 sec when you get it.

You awoke me for that? :eh:

I thought the email notice would be something interesting at least.


Did you give up on GW? I have factions too but don't play as much.

BTW, the forums I post on had the url bought out. The new URL is for a new FPS game yet to be announced. YOu can sign up as a beta tester tho. www.tournament.com

I dunno if serenity 2+ is that useful, it can be for pve chanters and animists, but for the rest you're better off wasting points elsewhere.
