==Sanction Effects ==
== Astral Candescence Effects ==
While in an Aht Urhgan region with the Sanction active, you will receive the following effects:
Sanction is affected by the status of the [[Astral Candescence]].
* Defeating an enemy that grants [[Experience Points]] (i.e. [[Easy Prey]] or higher) will earn  the player [[Imperial Standing|Imperial Standing Points]] amounting to 10% of the base [[Experience Points]], if battling in a region possessing the [[Astral Candescence]].
* When defeating an enemy that grants a player Experience Points, there is a chance that an elemental [[Crystal]] will drop from that enemy. (When in a party with other members who also have Sanction active, there is a chance that additional Crystals can drop.)
* If [[Al Zahbi]] has possession of the [[Astral Candescence]], players will receive a bonus of 5-15% additional Experience Points for each enemy defeated. The amount of bonus experience points granted is based on the [[Imperial Defense Bonus]].
When the Astral Candescence is under Imperial control, you may choose to obtain one of the following effects with Sanction at the cost of 100 [[Imperial Standing]] credits:
* [[Regen (Status Effect)|Regen]]
**The Regen enhancement is active at a progressively higher percentage of HP, active from 1 HP to an HP cap of up to 95% of the player's maximum HP.  Regen is 1 HP/tick.
* [[Refresh (Status Effect)|Refresh]]
**The Refresh enhancement is active from 0 MP to an MP cap of up to 75% of the player's maximum MP. Refresh is 1 MP/tick. This does not appear to stack with [[Refresh]], [[Refresh II]], nor Refresh from gear.
* [[Increased Meal Duration]]
**The meal duration enhancement doubles the normal length of food eaten.
Sanction strength is enhanced by successfully defending the Astral Candescence through consecutive [[Besieged]] attacks.  As the server's winning streak continues, the bonuses conferred by the Candescence increase:
*The experience bonus rises from 5% to 15% base on the defense of Aht Urhgan.
To find the Imperial defense rating of Aht Urhgan, talk to any guard that gives Sanction and ask Question Besieged and Nation Defense (defensive * .075 = exp bonus). {{verification}}
*[[Glory Crown]] gives a +1 to the [[Imperial Defense Bonus]].
**The Imperial Defense Rating caps at 8 points.


Sanction is one of the few beneficial Status Effects that cannot be directly removed via its icon; once applied, you must wait until the Sanction effect expires on its own, or override it with another effect.
