Why does power take so long to regen?
Power regenerates at different rates, depending on how much you use. If you stay at 75% power or higher, you will see it regenerate quite quickly. At half power or better it is quite palatable. Drop below half power, however, and you can go brew a pot of coffee while you sit and regenerate power. Below a quarter, and you can enjoy a nice nap. (Mana regen below 50% was normalized in a recent patch, so it’s the same as power regen above 50%) There are two ways to improve power regeneration. The first is to keep your power above 75%. That means resting between each kill while solo, and managing your mana while grouped. It’s better to sit for 10-20 seconds between kills while solo, than to kill 3 in a row and have to wait for 2 minutes. The second way to improve power regeneration is to get a mana buff. These come from healers, in their Pacification spec line. Group with a healer; they need your offensive output, you need their mana buff.
