Reduced Mana Costs In WoTLK

A mage guildie of mine seems to have noticed an increase in the mana cost of his fireball ever since the last patch. Since I don’t play my mage much anymore and when I do I do not cast fireball, I don’t really know if my guildie is right or it’s just his imagination. Anyway, I’m sure he and all you guys as well would be pleased to know that there’s good news for all mana using classes for the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Blizzard poster Koraa tells us more.

We’d like to note that we are currently in the process of revamping the mana cost of new spells, abilities and the new ranks of spells and abilities in the expansion. We are aware players feel the mana cost of certain abilities is too high, and we agree. Though I can’t really go into much detail yet as the actual specifics of what’s changing is still being debated internally, be rest assured your voice on the issue has been heard and it is one of our top priorities right now.

We’ve found the feedback from the players in Alpha and Beta to be more constructive and helpful than ever, and we hope that you continue to give feedback on your experiences in the beta.

Thanks! : ] source

This is pretty good news overall since majority of the classes on World of Warcraft use mana. We’ll just have to wait and see which abilities will get the mana reduction. This is exciting news!
