I have a level 40 cleric, with a meditation skill of 205.
every tick I receive 17 mana, then drops 1, and then jumps 17 mana on the next tick, giving me an effective regen rate of 16 mana per tick.

if I was at 0 mana the growth would look like this

second 0: 0 mana
second 6: 17 mana
second 8: 16 mana
second 12: 33 mana
second 14: 32 mana

ect....

after reading the meditate skill definition:

For every 12 points your Meditate skill has, you will regenerate +1 mana (per tick) when sitting.

204/12=17 +1 should equal 18 mana per tick.

is this skill working correctly?

The jumping is a client-server interaction. The client calculates your initial mana due to meditation (17), then the server sends a correction (16) because the client is using titanium-era mana mechanics and the server runs mechanics closer (ideally identical) to Classic. As far as how much mana you are regenerating, I can't say whether that is accurate or not.

As Falkun said. Yes it is working as intended.

so the definition on the wiki is incorrect then.

int(205/12)=17
17 +1 = 18

I see 16 instead of the predicted 18.
I am okay definition they give is wrong, I just want to confirm it and change it if necessary.

Why the +1? I just see per 12 points you regenerate 1 mana per tick... 205/12=17.083. Makes me wonder about that 1 missing (to get from 16, to 17) mana though. Maybe post this in the bugs section instead and see what kind of feedback you get? They are pretty suave down there ;p.

"For every 12 points your Meditate skill has, you will regenerate +1 mana (per tick) when sitting."
