Half again as much, regardless of other mods is a huge boost.
Now, if that's not good enough, then...
- you aren't playing armor
- armor sucks in general

I think davros70 meant that the amount reserved goes up to 60%, but the armour benefit is unchanged.

Yup, and I support that decision, it's still decently good if you have an armor build, it was indecently good before.

Very likely it was just left out.

Determ is very good, but not so good that its current stat warrents 20% more mana reserve.

armor by itself is rarely good unless you spec haaaaaaard into it i guess is the real point.

this. and not everyone owns or can use a 2k+ chest or 1,5k+ shield. i am not mad at the aura-change itself, but just astonished about its harshness and the no-buff to determination (im not questioning that it already was good).

but i dont know how this will turn out at last cause my build will need heavy passive changes as well (so i think i will specc out of IR if its not possible to run 3 auras with "reasonable" investment and take some more armour-nodes instead) i just had the hope that if i would be forced down to two auras they all get buffed enough to compensate and i would be fine with only one defensive and one offensive left. definetly not the case if you used the grace + IR + determination combo, wich you needed as generalised armour/life-char with not top-notch-gear (imho)).


E: but i can see the advantages and new possibilities as well: getting rid of grace and anger will free 500 reserved life wich is a defensive gain + at least 4 sockets wich i can use for other defensive skills (molten and the new trigger-gems, yay :D)

A good solution would be to just change it to base armor so it's good for every armor build and not completely useless if you don't use a shield or IR
