Windows

What is the behaviour in-game?

"Skill Mana costs converted to Life Costs" on The Burden of Shadows should add mana cost before modifiers to current life cost. This means it should stack with Blood Mage's Blood Remnants ascendancy notable as well as Lifetap support, as confirmed by testing in-game (technically I did not test only Lifetap without Blood Remnants) resulting in 300% of base mana cost as life cost with all 3.

What is the behaviour in Path of Building?

Equipping The Burden of Shadows in POB sets your life cost to your mana cost before modifiers. Neither Blood Remnants nor Lifetap increase the life cost of your spells. In fact if you add Lifetap+Remnants first the life cost is correctly doubled to 200%, but then adding the staff will lower the life cost back down to 100% again.

How to reproduce the issue

  1. Add any skill and note mana cost of skill.
  2. Add either Blood Remnants node or Lifetap (or both)
  3. Equip Burden of Shadows and note life cost does not change, or goes down if both Remnants and Lifetap are active.
