Node

A node is a location where mana flows more freely than most other locations, which has numerous effects. A node increases experience absorbtion, mana regeneration, and spirit regeneration, and it has effects on various other factors in GemStone IV, such as the chance of enchanting an item. Nodes are not common locations, though a town's center such as Solhaven's North Market are usually nodes. A common method used to find a node is the use of the MEDITATE verb, which will not cause a character to kneel and meditate should the area the verb is used not be a node.
