• Stealth and Mana recovery is doubled (any race or personality mods will be doubled; for example base is 3% per tick which is now 6%, if a race mod says +2% per tick this will also be doubled meaning 4%, therefore a race which states *+2% per tick will receive 3% base plus 2% = 5% => doubled to 10%)

For clarity on some of the new Freak mods:
