I need some help wrapping my brain around what I’m seeing.

I’m casting comet with a cast time of 2.13 seconds at a cost of 211 mana. I have 124.3 mana regenerated per second.

So I’m casting comet and I’m watching my mana just fucking plummet over the entire cast time.

Shouldn’t I be paying the 211 up front to begin the cast and start regenerating right after paying it? Like it looks like I’m paying 211 per second and essentially losing around 90 per second at the entire duration of the cast.

Please help. This might have always been how it is. I don’t think I’ve ever casted a 2 second+ spell

Wild. I’m replying to myself.

So to further my investigations it appears to even begin casting the spell my character needs

(Cost of comet) (cast time) in mana pool.


For example if I have 400 mana my character will get the blue blink and say I need more mana but that shouldn’t be the case.


Comet must be coded to be a per second mana cost. It just has to.

Anyone? Or am I just retarded and I am missing something?
