I chose 'regenerates over the course of the day', although that is not my preferred choice.
I am currently (on and off, in what little spare time I can manage to find during the week) trying to fiddle with the EoMR,ME system - the idea being that the DC would vary on how potently and how recently the mage has cast. Powerful spells would raise the DC for hours or even days, while minor spells might raise the DC only for minutes or even rounds. Likely each category would need to be tracked separately, with all catagories (rounds, minutes, hours, days) stacking with each other. Also, I can see the + to casting DC over a period of time decreasing. So perhaps after that major spell it is +5 to all further casting DCs for 2 days, but after that it is reduced to +4, then after a couple more days to +3, etc. Thus the penalty slowly vanishes over the course of about ten days.
This would be much closer to my preferred form of magic system, but it would also require a notable amount of bookkeeping, so I can see it perhaps lacking in popularity.
