    Sanction bonus question

    Do Regen/Refresh sanction bonuses reset to a lower% after loosing besieged?

    The wiki doesn't say it does, but there's a discussion comment that mentions that the gate guards say the effect gets stronger the more besieged you win. A couple people in my LS where commenting that regen doesn't activate until much lower than normal and I noticed that we're still recovering from an AC loss last week. I'm going to test it later, I was just wondering if anyone else had any insight.

    iirc, the refresh bonus kicks in at a low % (something like 20 or 30, but those are by no means exact numbers. please don't flame me for the inaccuracy.) when the mobs are attacking at a strength of 1, but it increases towards 75%+ (again, ballpark numbers.) as they get towards their top tier attack rank. this is actually a function of the Imperial Defense value, but i generally think of it in terms of beastmen strength, since they're correlated.

    I believe caps are:
    exp = 15%
    regen = 95%
    refresh = 85%

    Freshly won Astral Candescence
    exp = 5%
    regen = ?%
    refresh = ?%

    a good wining streak will shift from base values to cap.

    I think regen trigger from a fresh AC recovery is 50% HP.

    HP regen caps at 91% HP.
    The cap is reached when you win your first Lv.3 Besieged.

    Imperial defense has nothing to do with the potency of Sanction bonus. It's a simple representation of the NPC forces that assist during Besieged (also, 100+ gives you double items).

    here's another question:

    how many wins does it take for Sanction to re-cap again, seeing as how we're destined to lose a lv8 besieged every time now?

    I tested this on EM clusters a long time ago, and it got back to 15% at 8 consecutive wins (so around lvl1-lvl2 forces). Not sure if regen/refresh returns to their regular %s by then too or if it takes longer. Also the last few wins before 8 were like 12%-14% which is probably good enough anyway.
