A recommendation at the amount for dot strength healing per tick is that it should be scaled at a 1:1 ratio with meditation skill, meaning 1 point of dot strength, per tick, is healed for every 1 point of meditation skill the player acquires. This will allow for some scaling to occur as the player advances their character. For example a novice tk with +15 meditation skill, when hit with a 100 point bleed will begin healing the bleed off at 15 points per tick. | A recommendation at the amount for dot strength healing per tick is that it should be scaled at a 1:1 ratio with meditation skill, meaning 1 point of dot strength, per tick, is healed for every 1 point of meditation skill the player acquires.

Ability - Meditate
SWGANH Wiki is a repository of Star Wars Galaxies Developer information. This site is only meant to be used by SWGANH Developer team.
Description/meditate: This Teras Kasi art allows the user to enter a trance-like state. In this state, the user can stop bleeding as well as slow poison and disease. Additionally, rumors suggest that extremely proficient meditation artists can slowly heal their own wounds.

Ability Breakdown & Details
When you issue the /meditate command, it initiates a 'You sit down' system message then takes a meditation pose as the player changes posture. Meditation counts as a sitting/prone posture and carries with it any bonuses or penalties that apply with that posture type. This command cannot be used while in motion or swimming/combat. The meditation state will break if the player is attacked or moves. While in a meditative state, players are able to cure bleeding, cure poison, cure disease, cure wounds as well as initiate the power boost ability. The amount of the dots that is cured from the player depends on the meditation skill modifier of the player. The meditation levels at which each feature becomes possible are as follows:
- Teräs Käsi Novice: cure bleeding
- Intermediate Meditative Techniques: cure poison
- Advanced Meditative Techniques: cure disease
- Master Meditative Techniques:= cure wounds
Meditation heals dots at an interval of 5 seconds. The meditation skill modifiers factor in reducing the tick value for each dot. Dots are healed in a particular order (currently unknown but I propose that it targets bleeds, poisons and diseases in that order) and as the meditation state is maintained, the negative state is healed and then the next state is brought up afterward. Wounds are healed in a specific order: Action, Health and Mind and this includes secondary stats as well. The amount of wounds healed per cycle is also dependent on the meditation skill modifier.Only one type of wound may be healed at each cycle.
When you meditate you will see something like the following (exact wording may be off):
Your disease severity has decreased. Your disease severity has decreased. Your disease severity has decreased. Your disease has subsided. [meditation] Your action wounds heal by [31] points. [meditation] Your action wounds heal by [23] points [meditation] Your action wounds heal by [15] points.
