ATM, it isnt worth using to reduce skill costs, and its quality bonus is almost useless. I just want to add more diversity to this gem.

Uh yeah, that's why I wasn't talking about Skill Costs at all? :/ Back in October, I explicitly mentioned "Reduced Reservation" for a reason.
R.I.Pepperoni RM you will be rememberd well ... on side note you may as well remove this gem from game GGG Really if you think anyone with some knowledge about this game will use it for acctive skills you should just hand over this game to blizzard...

High mana cost skills on CI build might use this as they can't get blood magic or EB

it is pretty niche. but not w/o purpose.

that being said the values on

http://poedb.tw/us/gem.php?n=Reduced+Mana

just seem a bit low

the purpose of this gems is to make skills useable w/o much investment in mana sustain
and while it does that i'm pretty sure just going mana regen instead will pretty much always be better.

it could use a buff i think.
I dont get it, is there any reason, why change this gem so hard and so bad?

Because GGG can. That's why.

The gem needs to be renamed to "Doesn't reduce sh!t" cause as far as I'm concerned it's useless now.
I wish they would quit screwing with the game all the time!
Every single time I invest way too much time on developing a viable
character, they change the skill tree or the items.
Used to be fun. Now I got about 8 hi quality anchors.
Thanks, GGC!
So I'm looking at 2.0 builds that still say to use reduced mana gems linked to hatred/grace. Is this just outdated info or am I missing something? It doesn't change anything with reservation auras now right?
Just badly updated builds..
as of now, I dont have any desire to use this gem.
I wonder if GGG got any data of how many people using this gem after 2.0?

now with q20, can only get to 39% reduced mana. still less desirable than Blood Magic where you can use 2 50% aura.
Can this have some effect on reserve? i mean you ripped that gem guys..
