ive only went to alby arena once a long time ago. i dont actually know how arenas work~ well it's like this. someone tipped me to pick herbs inside rabbie arena and potmake in rabbie arena lobby, because inside the arena, the pets and the owners get their mp replenished. he also told me that in the lobby, the chars get mana replenished as well, but not for the pets. now i know i gotta have trans to go inside the arena, and since my herbalizer is still a noob i can't bring her in. i decided to try out the potmaking in the lobby~ so i go in there and my mana didnt replenish. i thought maybe when the round is over ill get it replenished, but that wasn't true either. what did my friend mean when he said i'd get mana replenished in arena? i have a way of not getting things ... ã… .ã…

oh and another question: i was able to stay pally for my whole stay at the lobby, but later when i tried to turn pally at 5:50am outside, it said i couldnt use it for the rest of the day. i don't believe i was late when i transed the previous day at 5:50am :T does staying transed in arena till the next day take away the next day's use of trans?

If I'm not wrong, you have to get a DK (if you are Pally, reverse for other situation) to kill you before you go into the waiting room, which is probably the lobby that your friend is talking about.

Test it out and let me know too.

It's not that bad. It's just a game and it doesn't affect PVP scores.

When you enter the Rabbie arena (lobby, etc.), the state of whether you have used your transformation or not doesn't change. The 6:00 transformation ability reset only happens outside of the Rabbie arena. So, don't transform outside the arena, transform inside (you can transform unlimited times inside the Rabbie arena).

For example, if you transformed outside at 5:50, went inside until 6:00, and came back out, you won't be able to transform again until the next day at 6:00. (missed the reset)

If you transformed inside at 1:00, went outside right after that and cancel transformation, you can transform again. (transforming inside didn't affect the ability to transform outside)

Alternatively, I would recommend you to hoard herbs in Alby Arena instead. It's usually empty and runs on a timer (Recovers all HP, MP and SP regarding upon how many stars you have per 5 minutes).

It's easier there and everything you need is probably within Tir Chonaill.

if i dont get any stars after entering the arena, it says itll move me to the lobby. that means, in order to pick herbs inside while getting my pig's mp filled, i have to kill at least 1 person in rabbie? after i beat them i can detrans and be safe, and still be able to pick herbs in there?

mana tunnels ftw

if your pet uses 5mp a second to get herbs then you might have a roblem with it...
