However it is hard to use constantly while keeping adventuring from being stale or run by contrived forces.Random encounters is another. However again, if used frequently the randomness disappears.Changing rest schedule mechanics works for some. However it creste ripple effects.Personally I use the mana concentration/leyline method..Certain areas let you hel and restore features better due to a high concentration of magic. Dungeons are often stop leylines or built with Magic concentrators.</blockquote>
