I've been wondering some about rest state. I seem to recall (though from where, I have no idea) that rest state starts out building slowly, and gets a little quicker towards the max if you've not logged into that C for some time.
So I'm wondering what triggers rest on and off, and it's accrual speed. If I just leave the C alone for 4-5 days, will I acquire more rest bonus than if I log onto the C once a day to check mail, thus breaking uninterrupted rest? To break rest state, what do I need to do? Fight (in any of the three possible modes)? Move? Commit some action, such as checking mail or the AH? Interact with a PC or an NPC?
Or does it make a difference? If I log in, check the wowmail, run around IF, and then log off, am I still considered 'resting'. If I leave the rest area (A capital city or an Inn) does that reset rest? Or is rest just a set bonus, so that if I'm logged off for an hour or 10 days, I accrue it at the same rate?
Lots of questions, I know.
