>>That kind of distribution of mana looks really random and doesn't really make a lot of sense in the metaphysics behind mana. Mana should exist in a plane outside of the physical world, in that one room should not have really high room-mana, next to a room with really low room-mana. I strongly suggest becoming acquainted with the fiction behind magic in this game before arguing that something is in violation of it. >>Can anyone comment if the scaling is linear or not? It's not. The PP bonus is weighted toward providing more benefit, faster, at the early ranks. >>Near as I can tell, this is an intentional change on part of the GMs. You're not supposed to ever have "super high mana". You're supposed to need to worry about spending all your mana on spells, and this worry should never go away even at 2000 PP. This is correct. >>You are limiting your imagination to an existence "outside the physical world" that mimics the physical world. >>See the moon mage Ways for how things can get really twisted outside the physical world. This is unrelated to anything to do with mana, but is also correct. The other planes in DragonRealms are less D&D staple "like Earth, but on fire" and more "freakish realms beyond mortal comprehension." -Armifer
