1/1 Life (CI) is also not low life, so I'd imagine that wouldn't work, no :)
EDIT: it would work, yes. My brain temporarily malfunctioned so I said dumb things.

Viper, its low Mana, not low Life. CI doesn't make a difference.

Moki, taking blood magic removes Mana. You can't be on low Mana if you have none to start with. I would think that does indeed bypass the effect, but GGG would have to confirm.

I think his point was that 1/1 life doesn't trigger "low life" mods so a 0/0 mana probably wouldn't trigger "low mana" mods - more of an example/comparison. ;)

Exactly. 1/1 is still 100% (ergo, not Low Life/Mana), so I can't imagine 0/0 being any different.
I, uh... don't know why I wrote that it would *not* work.

Yeah it makes sense that Blood Magic would bypass it. I just found it funny that the game would be dividing by zero trying to figure out the players percentage of mana.

True, but it wouldn't trigger "full mana" either, 1/1 and 0/0 are definitely different.

Edit:
Well I guess I should say it "shouldn't" trigger full mana, but in the end it depends on how GGG did the coding.

aah, ok, I see. The problem that comparison though is just as moki said, there's a difference between 1/1 and 0/0. 100% of something and 100% of nothing, or rather something that doesn't exist, aren't exactly similar. At least.. I think..
Regardless, I don't know of any blood magic users who are keen on ES - if you damage yourself through BM, it resets your charge recovery on ES.

It will be called Infernal Mantle.

I wanted to call it Hell's Mantle, however that conflicts with lore somewhat(No hell in PoE). Keep in mind these numbers may not be what was released. This should be 1 of the two Diamond uniques this patch.

Happy hunting.


Hmmm... this together with The searing touch on a fire crit templar or witch :) If i find this armor after it'll be put in the game i'm definatly triing it :D

Well i guess it should not become a no brainer ;) Though it might become an interestin choise for some niche BM builds...

The one way I can see a BM build wanting to use ES would be with the Aegis Aurora shield posted a while ago. If that ES on block mod makes it in, it could be a very effective way to mitigate damage.

Mathematically, 0 out of 0 mana is 100% (the current is equal to the maximum), and also 0% (the current is equal to 0% of the maximum), indicating you'd have both full and low at the same time. We'd likely decide that at least one, possibly both of those don't work, were things to be implemented that way.

Please note that item is not yet finalised, and may not have the mod in question in it's final form.
