Prevents recovery above 50% mod on enemies increases mana cost of skills (solved, not a bug)

This seems like a bug, was getting me killed and had no idea what was happening that I suddenly couldn't cast even when my mana was full (with reservations active). Finally realized it was happening when I was in the effect of such a monster and then was able to figure out what was happening - it seems that the 'Prevents recovery above 50%' for some reason increases the mana cost of skills when you're in the ring of effect by about 11%. If my mana cost of my primary skill wasn't so close to the unreserved amount I wouldn't have noticed, but if I walk out of the ring my mana cost goes down and then if I go back into it my mana costs go back up. This effect isn't conveyed in any way and doesn't fit with the stated effect (which is happening normally of preventing ES recovery above 50%).

Your profile is private but you probably have something like insightfulness allocated (10% reduced mana cost of skills while on full energy shield).

You are probably on full energy shield most of the time but the prevent recovery mod puts you below full es for longer than normal so the 10% reduced mana cost of skills being deactivated is much more noticeable.

Oh dang, you're right actually, I do and that must be it!

I don't know how I didn't notice that and that my main attack was unable to cast while I wasn't on full ES. I recover so quickly the vast majority of the time I couldn't tell.

Thanks for figuring that out Gladiatorpie! Unfortunately that means I just gave a bogus bug report, sorry GGG!

Wish there was some way to retract a bug report after you realize it's not a bug.
