I am interested in becoming a warrior tamer weaver. Droping bushido for weaving.

100 tactics
100 vet
70 chiv

First: My source

Gift of renewal lasts longer based on your skill in spellweaving. The difference between 100 and 120 skill is about 50 seconds (4:10 for 100 skill, 5 minutes for 120 skill, per UOGuide). You also get extra time for a higher level focus.

So the more skill, the better. I've found in practice that if you can get the high level focus, you can get away with less skill. At 90 spellweaving and a level 5 focus, my bard can run into the middle of a level 3 champion spawn and ignore everything while I spam area effect spells. My warrior, with 20 weaving from jack of all trades, can do the same in a level 2 champion spawn, but not a level 3. The time difference is quite significant as well.

Ok so skill is time. Not amount of points healed per round?

I can't give you the exact numbers on that, but higher skill does heal more points per second, which is why my JOAT warrior can only run head first into smaller spawns than my spellweaving mage.

the recast timer starts after it wears off?

so now matter what your spell weaving skill you have the same wait before you can pop another?

You do have a point there. I just went and did a few experiements and found out that the UOguide page on gift of renewal was completely wrong. And with that: my new data.

Spellweaving 0, focus 0, gift of renewal heals 5 HP per 2 seconds for 30 seconds.
Spellweaving 110 focus 0, gift of renewal heals 9 HP per 2 seconds for 30 seconds.
Spellweaving 0, focus 1 (nobody to help me with the experiment), heals 5 HP per 2 seconds for 40 seconds.
Spellweaving 110 focus 1 heals 9 HP per 2 seconds for 40 seconds.

And my conclusion is, base time is 30 seconds, regardless of skill. Each level of focus grants 10 seconds to the time. Your skill level changes the rate of healing by about 1/2 hit point per second per 12 points of skill, with a minimum of 2.5 hit points per second.

I could refine that into an actual formula given time and resources (or just more data), but I'm lazy, so I won't.

I apologize for giving the wrong information earlier in the thread (and in other threads for that matter). Sure teaches me to trust things I read on the internet.
