Okay, I honestly do not know if this counts as a bug or not. I have just been playing my game of Epoch and I am having a go at being a Primalist until I feel ready to do a new Mage Build. Is there a skill node that I am unaware of that reduces the mana in anyway? If not, then something is seriously wrong. The game was having issues, in that it kept freezing up and this is not the first instance of it happening. But I am assuming it could be a cloud issue because this game saves via the cloud if I am correct about that? Anyway, onto my problem and I have only just noticed this five to ten minuets ago. Sorry in advance, I canât say when it exactly happened, but the last time I checked, my mana was way in the hundred and so mark. Now for reasons completely unknown to me, my mana has dropped down to 97 out of 97 (97/97) Is this meant to be like that? (See attached Screenshot)

I have exited the game and restarted it again and I am still getting the display issue. I have spent a good portion of several of hours playing this game and now I am going to have start all over again with the Primalist Can anyone please explain the Mana drop, Please
Post your build and let us take a look.
The screenshot shows 97 not 79.
My 1st theory is that you change some gear and didnt realised it had mana on it
PVTVlad, yes, sorry, my bad, just got that wrong but the mana count still seems a bit odd though.
Travoas. My Build is offline and I had tried once to share an Acolyte Build that I was trying quite a few months back, but I could not find the file format on my C drive that was needed to upload the data of my Acolyte. I am going to have the exact same problem should I try to upload the data of my Pramalist. Do you have any idea what could be the cause of the Mana drop?
Did you do any respec? Druid passive Spirit Warden gives so if you did do some respec and didnât pick that back up that could count in on your loss. Otherwise the only thing that I can think of off-hand is gear swapping like @PvtVlad said.
I know that there are items that give mana, maybe you changed like items where the one mana roll was better than the other and you have % increased mana which affected it even further.
Travoas, thank you for the feedback. No, I checked all of the nodes in the following skills: Thorn Totem. Swipe and Stormcrows. None of the nodes that I had activated up to that point have negative mana to them or a reduction to mana in anyway. I will check my gear. Though I do not think that they have any mana reduction to them, but I will check and get back to you on that one. Again, thank you for the feedback, much appreciated.
If that wasnât a direct mana decrease or % mana decrease⌠are there any changes in Attunement numbers?
Peinshakoff. Thank you for your feedback and no, not that I can recall. Sorry I have deleted the the character now as I could not see a way to get my mana back. I include for all who have commented on here to take a good look at the gear and weapons that I had been using at the time of when the mana drop occured. You will notice that each item as seen in the images shows no reduction to mana whatsoever. I have inluded an image of a pair of Legendary Boots that I was going to equip, but as you can see, even they do not have a muction to them either. Iâm annoyed that the glitch, because it has to be one. I am annoyed that the glitch happened, as I was doing really well in the game up until the point of the mana drop and I had spent hours of long hard work on getting that far, just to have the glitch to occur. I am also a bit unhappy about the fact that the game keeps freezing up. When I had been playing the game and I was fighting the boss, the one before you Fight Lagon. Her, that boss. I forget her name now, anyway, my game kept freezing up then, in fact it froze so much that my game simply crashed and I had to do that boss fight all over again. I was not at all amused, by that fact. Anyway I digress. Hereâs the the images:

Could it be the Amulet? Thatâs the only thing that relates to mana, but thereâs no mention of there being a mana drop. But I have had that equipped before when I had reached a point in the game where my Pramilist did not have enough cold resistance and the ice attacks were still getting through my resistance, with the top cap being 75% and the bottom cap under that at a 122% Also at that point my Primalist was wearing the same amulet and I had not noticed any mana drop then, As best as I can recall now, if the Amulet is the cause of the Mana drop, I will get rid of the amulet.
Amulet is ok. +mana and your mana (97 as I remember) counted for bonus against stuns (97*2 stun avoidance). May be useful to sustain Lagonâs claw attacks
Peinshakoff, thanks for your valuable information, Though this does not explain the mana drop, I am sure that I had at least 100+mana before the drop to 97, which makes no sense and I do apologise if I am missing the point here. I have a learning difficulty. Also like I said, I had reached quite far before with a different Primalist and the mana I am sure was over the 100 mark, hence my confusion with this man drop, which I hope wonât happen again, but I am going to pay real close attention, or at least try to do so when I reach the same point in the game that I had done so with my previous Primalist and see if the same thing happens again. Sorry what you said made no sense and maybe thats me and my learning difficulty, for which I apologise for, But are you saying that the aumulet reduces the mana, but it gives me stun avoidance instead? If that is so, I really must not have been paying attention to my mana when I had been playing with my previous Primalist. Stun avoidance is nice, but I would rather have more mana to use, when I do get around in putting on the amulet I will see what my mana is before and after putting it on, if my mana drops, then I know not to use that amulet.
No. Not instead. It doesnât affect mana.
Different calculation that includes your max mana.
And I recommend to take a look at Attunement. One more point and mana goes from 97 to at least 101
Level 26 Primalist with no gear has 67 mana, so having 97 mana with gear is normal.
Next, you said:
When an item adds +56 mana, this means it raises your maximum mana by 56. When you remove this item, it will also remove the additional maximum mana.
Obviously, this also means that your mana never âdroppedâ in the first place. You had more maximum mana than you would normally have, and after you switched the amulet for another, your mana simply returned back to its original maximum.
Finally, I donât understand what is the cause for your alarm and subsequent deletion of a character. You donât need to have over 100 mana to play.
There is also a simple possibility (more likely than it being a glitch):
-You picked up a shrine that boosted your attunement. That boosted your max mana for the duration of it. When it ended, mana went back down.
The amulet is not the issue unless your drop was when you removed it. That would cause you to lose the mana it gave you plus any % increased mana based on that mana.
The Peak of the Mountain help adds +2 to all attributes, which includes Attunement (which increases your mana), so if you removed it that would cause your mana to go down.
You might want to verify your files with Steam, this could also help with your game freezing.
The possibility is also there as @DJSamhein mentioned that you had activated a shrine that âboosts everythingâ which would have affected your mana.
Besides that shrine, there are also 3 more shrines that give you +20 attunement (one is the maesltrom one, canât remember the other 2). And +20 attunement would be a big difference indeed.
Itâs okay, I think I might of made a mikstake, the amulet works fine. Sorry for the delay. I have been unwell for a very long time. I am just starting to recover, slowly.
