PowerBoost Source2

2. How does Powerboost work?

PowerBoost is a special action that Teräs Käsi can take once they get to Advanced Meditative Techniques (level 2). Basically the TKA while meditating will do the action. The Mind attribute will immediately be cut in half (although it will begin regenerating). The Health and Action will begin ramping up over the next 60 seconds, each getting a bonus equal to the amount that was cut from mind. After the first 60 seconds, the Mind attribute should reach the boosted state. Meditation skill affects the length of time that the bonus lasts. Here is the exact formula used:

Duration: 5 min + (meditation skill mod/100 * 5min) give or take 5%

For example, if your stats are 1000/1000/1000 and you do Power Boost, your mind immediately drops to 500. After 60 seconds you will be at 1500/1500/1000. After another 60 seconds you will be at 1500/1500/1500.

POWERBOOST ONLY TAKES THE BASE MIND STATS INTO CONSIDERATION.

Some people have seen bugs relating to the stats not returning to normal. Among these, your stats may appear to be 100% when in fact you have been damaged.

Here is a macro that you may find helpful when using PowerBoost. It will add alarms that will go off to indicate the various stages of the boost. Note that you will want to update the times based on your current meditation skill using the formula above.
