[edit] Maximum energy

All professions, regardless of level, have an innate capacity of 20 energy, and 2 pips of energy regeneration. This can be increased using armor, weapons, or in the case of elementalists, attributes. Nearly all professions' basic armor provides extra energy, and this level can be further increased using Runes of Attunement and Radiant Insignias.

[edit] Weapons

Item Maximum energy bonus
Inherent Prefix Suffix Inscription
Martial weapon - - - +5
Staff +10 +5 - +5 (conditional)
+15 (-1 energy regeneration)
Wand - - - +5 (conditional)
+15 (-1 energy regeneration)
Focus item +3 (unconditional)
+12 (with attribute requirement) 		- - +15 (-1 energy regeneration)
Shield - - - -

Energy Storage, the Elementalist's primary attribute, can also increase maximum Energy by 3 per attribute rank. Maximum energy can also be increased by a Morale Boost and some skills and blessings.

Exhaustion and Death Penalty decrease characters' maximum energy.

[edit] Energy regeneration and degeneration

Energy regeneration, also known as energy recovery, is the rate at which a character regains energy. Each pip of Energy regeneration generates 1 Energy every 3 seconds. All characters have a base Energy regeneration of 2.

Some weapons and focus items cause energy degeneration as a drawback of their bonuses. Some Enchantments also cause Energy degeneration in the form of an Upkeep cost, which must be paid in order to maintain them.

Anything that changes maximum energy levels will also have an effect on current energy levels - in this way, it is possible for characters to have negative energy, although the UI will still indicate 0 energy. Energy will continue to regenerate at the same rate while it is below 0. This mechanic can be used to avoid energy denial.

Though the conditions are rarely met, there is a regeneration/degeneration cap of 10 for energy.

Some skills also provide additional energy regeneration or degeneration.
