Support Gem Feedback - Reduced Mana Cost - Forum

" MortalKombat3 wrote: But passives dont take 1 support gem slot for what they do. And we both know, that each gem slot is essntially a damage multiplier, usually. ATM, it isnt worth using to reduce skill costs, and its quality bonus is almost useless. I just want to add more diversity to this gem. Uh yeah, that's why I wasn't talking about Skill Costs at all? :/ Back in October, I explicitly mentioned "Reduced Reservation" for a reason.

High mana cost skills on CI build might use this as they can't get blood magic or EB it is pretty niche. but not w/o purpose. that being said the values on http://poedb.tw/us/gem.php?n=Reduced+Mana just seem a bit low the purpose of this gems is to make skills useable w/o much investment in mana sustain and while it does that i'm pretty sure just going mana regen instead will pretty much always be better. it could use a buff i think.

I dont get it, is there any reason, why change this gem so hard and so bad?	Posted by Lyncz#3493 on Aug 2, 2015, 2:37:21 AM Quote this Post

I wish they would quit screwing with the game all the time! Every single time I invest way too much time on developing a viable character, they change the skill tree or the items. Used to be fun. Now I got about 8 hi quality anchors. Thanks, GGC!	Posted by ICDeadPPL#4863 on Aug 18, 2015, 4:37:32 AM Quote this Post
So I'm looking at 2.0 builds that still say to use reduced mana gems linked to hatred/grace. Is this just outdated info or am I missing something? It doesn't change anything with reservation auras now right?	Posted by Standardbmxguy22#7593 on Sep 21, 2015, 6:43:41 PM Quote this Post
Just badly updated builds..	Posted by Vipermagi#0984 on Sep 21, 2015, 10:00:51 PM Valued Poster Quote this Post
as of now, I dont have any desire to use this gem. I wonder if GGG got any data of how many people using this gem after 2.0? now with q20, can only get to 39% reduced mana. still less desirable than Blood Magic where you can use 2 50% aura.
