Mage - Mana Strike not giving correct Mana?

[Madriax]

Critical Mana node is not being affected by Mana Drain Node. Should it be?

Base Mana (15) + Arcanist’s Blade (9) + Critical Mana (15) + Mana Drain (+80%) = 70.2

However, I am only getting around 60.

Tested at dummy by letting mana go negative and then using mana strike as soon as mana is at zero - it gives around 65 mana with a 1/2 sec delay. So around 5 from mana regen and around 60 from mana strike.

Base mana (15) + Arcanist’s Blade (9) + Mana Drain (+80%) = 43.2 + Critical Mana (15) = 58.3

Is this working as intended?

It may have been like this pre-patch 0.7.10, but is now much more noticeable due to the reduction in attack speed.

This is working as intended-- the mana gained from the crit is separate and not affected by Mana Drain. However, the wording of those nodes could definitely be improved.

Thanks for the report!

Thanks.
