Does override meant that if a curse cost 50 mana to self-cast, it will be reserved for 50 * 1.25 = 62.5 mana?

This is what im curious about too. We can clearly see in the video that it isnt reserving a flat 25% per curse, soo thats out of the window. It seems to be doing the formula you listed.

This support gem overrides the mana cost of your skill, replacing it with a 25% mana reservation.

it is a flat 25% reservation, regardless of mana cost.
Maybe it was supported by enlighten, hence not 25% in the video...


what I'm more interested in is: what does level do at this gem? increased area of effect? reduced mana reservation?

autocurse everything on screen for 25% mana?
seems pretty powerful for ranged offense, with the radius shown in the video.
i would've expected a % reduced radius or something, to make it only viable for melee. but i suppose no aura effect buffs not applying is the downside GGG chose.

either way, very interesting new support.
looking forward to the next release

EDIT:
respec coming with this release? :)

would be interesting, if you rework auras in generely

Yeah that threw me off, didnt see it.

in the video it looks like its only reserving 15-20% per curse with 1-4th of the mana still being unreserved even with clarity. Theyve gotta be using enlighten with some reduced mana reserve nodes for sure. Note clarity isnt on enlighten either, assuming its a high level one too. Maybe some rebalancing with clarity, could explain why they started the video after the first curse was casted instead of showing the current clarity reserve before the cast.

I like it! Nice GGG! :D

Ok my dream of making a curse char is looking very real now, Keep up the epicness GGG

Cool! 25% mana reserved is pretty steap though...

Blasphemy + generosity?

Will almost certainly not interact in any way at all. They've already said Blasphemy curses won't have aura effect passives apply to them and since there is only 40% increased curse effect on the passive tree it is basically guaranteed they won't be letting Generosity grant its 20-39% increased effect on aura curses.
