'''Song of Power''' causes the [[bard]] to become a moving [[mana]] node, thereby increasing the mana regeneration rate of anyone in the caster's [[group]]. Specifically, the 'off node' mana recovery is set to what characters would have on a node while the on-node recovery rate increases from 25% to 30% of max mana expressed as [[trunc]] (max mana * 0.3).


'''Song of Power''' causes the [[bard]] to become a moving [[mana]] node in the area, thereby increasing the mana regeneration rate of anyone joined to the group.

Song of Power causes the bard to become a moving mana node, thereby increasing the mana regeneration rate of anyone in the caster's group.

However, be warned that the song can be very volatile if sung too long. Many suggest to stop the song after a few song renewals and then restart it.
