Blood Magic explanation please

I'm getting ready for OB and want to come up with a build for myself.

Can someone please help answer this:

If I have BM, are the costs of all skills still in the mana "currency?" or do they switch to Life as soon as BM is enabled?

In other words, if I have BM will a passive like "10% reduced mana cost of skills" be useless, or does it still apply? So If shooting a fire arrow costs lets say 10 mana, will it now cost 9 life instead or is it still going to cost 10 life because that skill no longer applies?

Yes, skills still say "Mana Cost: 10" and so on, and mana reduction still work. One thing that doesn't work with BM is mana leech

Just replace mana for life in descriptions. Everything works the same way, but applies to life.
Got it, thank you!!!
Well +mana passives and +mana on items do nothing.

But I assume you knew that.

Yes, I was mostly concerned with the mana cost reduction.

Thanks!
