from skills.c:meditate() :
Code: Select all
if (( (tmp->type==ARMOUR && skill->level<12)
|| (tmp->type==HELMET && skill->level<10)
|| (tmp->type==SHIELD && skill->level<6)
|| (tmp->type==BOOTS && skill->level<4)
|| (tmp->type==GLOVES && skill->level<2) )
&& QUERY_FLAG(tmp,FLAG_APPLIED)) {
new_draw_info(NDI_UNIQUE,0,pl,
"You can't concentrate while wearing so much armour!\n");
return;
}
ok, but how do you level up your meditation skill ? i've tried to meditate in front of a gob, but he was not impressed

You can't gain level in meditation. It's only effect is increased sp / hp regeneration.

so, you can't wear gloves, boots, helmet, shield, armour and weapon when meditating... it's not for humanoid beings.

Before the current skill system was implemented, a character with meditation could wear armor or heavier clothing if their overall character level (or maybe it depended on another skill "class" such as praying) met the requirements listed above *and* still successfully mediate.
Looks like this function is no longer wokring.
Perhaps meditation could be modified so that some experience could be gained for each hp/sp that is regained through mediation?
Sure, it could be very easy to level up quickly - but then again, the level & armour ratio could be tweaked too (ex: level 15 for armour, 12 for helmet, etc.)

alternitively the expmul for meditation could be set to zero, so that it doesn't affect overall level.

then you could level meditation with armour on, then take it all off and get +3 points per use? seems pointless for dragons then...
