<DIV>Why, when you get level 5 of the Mana Flow AA, does it say reduces duration and recast time of Mana Flow by 10 sec <EM>each</EM>, but when you look at Mana Flow after getting the 5th AA the duration which is normaly 30 sec and recast which is normaly 60 sec say that the duration is now 25 sec and the recast is 50 sec? Typical math and proper English tells me that if it says the duration is reduced 10 sec <STRONG><EM>and</EM></STRONG> the recast is reduced 10 sec, bringing the total time down to about 40 sec. Is this just me or is my "common-sense meter" all jacked up with the new rules?</DIV>

Was bugged in Beta, I made a post about it and of course it made it live.Thats what they get for changing aa's like 2 days before beta AND NOT TESTING THEM.I'd bet the farm that 3 of the 4 final aa's are bugged also.<div></div>

Yeah, did they ever get Thought Snap fixed? It wasn't working as of the last day of beta. <div></div>

mana flow is working as intended. At the rank 5, the recast time of the spell is 50 seconds and the target and you get the mana when the time reach 25 seconds (50 / 2 = 25 instead at the rank 0 : 60 / 2 = 30)<div></div>

---------------------------------mana flow is working as intended. At the rank 5, the recast time of the spell is 50 seconds and the target and you get the mana when the time reach 25 seconds (50 / 2 = 25 instead at the rank 0 : 60 / 2 = 30)-------------------------------It isnt working as intended --the description or the effect is still wrong.  According to the description it hastens the reuse and duration each by 10 seconds.  -10 seconds does not equal -5, nor does it equal half of -10.  If half recast is the intended duration, then they should change the wording of the skill in game to say that it hastens the duration by 5 and recast by 10.As for the OP, I dont think the wording suggests that the recast should be 40, just that the recast should be 60-10=50 and the duration 30-10=20.<div></div>

Manaflow takes 2 secs off the recast and 2 secs off the duration.If they consider taking 2 secs off the duration = 1sec off on me and 1 sec off the player its cast on.So if you get 4 secs off the duration = thats 2 off me and 2 off the player  its cast on.Thats the way it works now and its very misleading, as always.<div></div>
