Mana Regen Items

#1 Post by DarnYak »

Curious what % of the time people estimate they pick up one of the mana regen items. I would estimate somewhere around 90% for me, and that bothers me, but I might just abuse the crap out of any mana I have.

Just incase it's not clear, this is permanents only, not Clarity or Mana potions.

Only time i really get any of the permanent mana items is on a caster at early levels. usually the orb of mana. even then i dont use it that often.

I don't get them that frequently since I tend to use heroes that are more frail and thus get the Orb of Life instead.
If I do get them, I usually get the orb instead of the circlet.

I will occasionally get the Mana Orb if I have a tank with low mana but spells that you need to use a lot. Also, if I play BP, Mana Orb is a near-must if I'm doing the Phoenix build.

Same here. Gravel, BP, Scarab, and even Bane and Fenris come to mind....This doesn't seem to be a problem anymore since the added shield items seem particularly generous to tanking heroes.

Rarely, only sometimes if I find I'm spamming too much on a smaller map.
