Renascent Armguards
Ahkan
Texas
So, I've noticed this while I creep around doing creepy things. I think the Renascent Armguards are bugged. I don't think the stored defenses have a mana drain associated with them when they're activated from the armguard.

I took off my mana ring and watched the mana ticks. In about 30s I lost 80 mana. At a minute I was well below half mana. Defenses are balanced around draining mana. Can we please get some clean up on aisle six?

I questioned it at first, but someone I spoke to told me that was part of having them, so I rolled with it and got them simply cause they told me it gave no drains. I see no reason for me to have them now, especially since they don't store bard songs or anything else super useful for me. I honestly wish I could get all the credits back for it now, but more than likely I'll be told you don't get refunded for a bug we kept on it accidentally.
Selthis said: "... If negating mana consumption was included I imagine they would be super hot sellers and they would mention it in the help file as that would make people go "hell yah, gonna buy these..."
Which is exactly why I had gotten them. It was the selling point of what was told to me regardless of what was written in the help file because I had even commented on it seeming a bit overpowered to have no drains but was reassured that was part of the artifact's abilities.
I just have to deal with the misconception that was given to me and use them, regardless of how else I might feel about it.
If your artifact is doing more than it says it does, it's more than likely a bug and will be fixed. This is exactly why I never bought armguards, despite the 'perks'.
Life is hard.
Man plays bard and assumes that something fairly obviously broken is actually intentional.
Color me shocked.
"On the battlefield I am a god. I love war. The steel, the smell, the corpses. I wish there were more. On the first day I drove the Northmen back alone at the ford. Alone! On the second I carried the bridge! Me! Yesterday I climbed the Heroes! I love war! I… I wish it wasn’t over."
It is pretty good still for vitality, though..
