Hey, so started a sabo miner and tested the new mines with a -8 cost praxis ring & without, and I’m not completely sure if it reduces the mana cost/reservation (on the tooltip it doesn’t affect it). So was just wondering if the - mana cost of channeling skills or praxis work with the new mines, thanks in advance
Reservations are not costs. Modifiers that specify costs can only apply to costs, not reservations.
Will you consider to do a fix so reservations will stop removing mana after turned off, since they're not costs?
For a reservation to be truly not-a-costroach, What it reserved should be returned :)
Not being a cost does not at all mean you magically get back what you reserved. Reserving is spending, that mana was spent.
Hi Mark, does this mean the interaction between mines and indigon is intended? currently mines grant spell damage due to their insane mana costs, but are unaffected by the increased mana cost from indigon.
Yes. Mines do not have a cost, so are not affected by cost modifiers. Reserving is spending, so stats that track mana spent will see it.
Imagine you are asked 2 questions.
1 is about cost, reservation, and spend.
2 is about gem tags and gems ability to be supported.
You're able to answer only to one of them.
Which one you choose ¿
I would instead explain that minions are not you, and do not have your passive tree - passive bonuses will not apply to minions unless they say they do.
Nice username, btw.
