Your character's current and maximum spirit points can be found using the HEALTH command. The amount of maximum spirit points a character has is determined by that character's Aura statistic divided by 10, rounded (i.e. 95 Aura will give 10 maximum spirit.) Maximum spirit can be increased though enhancive items, to an ultimate maximum of 13 points.

Different races will recover spirit at different intervals, or spirit regeneration rates. In addition, Clerics and Empaths can MEDITATE to gain spirit back faster, as is done with health and mana.

Low Spirit Penalties

A character may experience penalties to combat modifiers when they have less than full spirit points. The exact penalties for having less than maximum spirit are outlined in the table below (as per the post by GM Oscuro on 23 January 2009 and GM Estild on 19 November 2014). Note that these penalties have exceptions for enhanced spirit point totals beyond 10 (the maximum possible without enhancive items).

  • Maximum Spirit Enhancives - The characters maximum spirit is considered to be 10 for the purpose of low spirit penalties. That is, if the characters maximum spirit is 11, 12, or 13, they will only experience penalties when their spirit point total reaches 7 or less.
  • Aura Enhancives - The characters maximum spirit total is used as normal. That is, if the character has 8/11, 8/12, or 9/13 spirit, they will to experience penalties.
  • Combined Spirit/Aura Enhancives - The characters maximum spirit total, as determined by their enhanced aura statistic is considered before max spirit enhancers. For instance, a character with an aura of 125-130 and any number of max spirit enhancers will have 13 spirit and will experience penalties at 9/13 spirit.
Percentage of MAX Spirit Effect on AS Effect on Evade, Block, & Parry DS
75% - 100% Max Spirit No penalty. No penalty.
50% to 74% Max Spirit -20% -10%
25% - 49% -35% -20%
Less than 25% -50% -30%
  • Every point of spirit missing increases the chance to fail a maneuver (Estild).
