The Mana Regeneration Band is an accessory item made by combining a Band of Starpower and a Band of Regeneration at a Tinkerer's Workshop. It somewhat combines the effects of both bands, expanding a player's mana pool and converting the bonus health regeneration provided by the Band of Regeneration into mana regeneration.
Since it requires a Band of Starpower, the player will need a Corruption biome to obtain it, as it will only drop from Shadow Orbs or Corrupt Crates. However, in the
version, the Band of Starpower can often be found in Living Wood Chests in Living Trees. In the
Desktop version and
Mobile version, it can be obtained in Crimson worlds by crafting it from the Panic Necklace or fishing in an artificial Corruption biome, created with Corrupt Seeds bought from the Dryad in a Hardmode Graveyard.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- In detail, the accessory has a twofold effect on mana regeneration:[1]
- It halves the regeneration delay after spending mana, e.g. using a magic weapon. If standing still or having the Mana Regeneration buff, it only reduces the delay by
33.33*1/3 (33.33%). - It increases the regeneration rate by a certain value, which ranges from +2.875 mana/sec to +14.375 mana/sec, depending on how full the wearer's mana bar is. The exact value can be calculated by adding
to2.875
, where11.5 * (cur/max)
is the current andcur
the maximum mana. The following table demonstrates this with some exemplary values:max

- The bonus is flatly added to the natural mana regeneration. It does not matter if the player is moving or standing still.
- Due to the base mana regeneration rate increasing with maximum mana, this flat bonus becomes exponentially less significant the more maximum mana the wearer has. For instance, while the bonus regen is equivalent to nearly a +650% boost at 20 maximum mana, it equals merely a +57% boost at 300 maximum mana. The exact factor for any amount of maximum mana can be calculated by dividing

- The Mana Regeneration Band does not grant a permanent increase to health regeneration like the Band of Regeneration, even though it is part of its recipe.
- The bonus maximum mana capacity does stack with that of the Band of Starpower.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Its mana regeneration ability works in the same way the Band of Starpower did in the Pre-Release.
