[...] was, as usual, “clear most of Naxx” night. I was really excited to get in there and test out my new Marksman build… at least that would give me a reason to want to be there! I’d also been giving one [...]

Yeah, for some reason as BM I have serious mana issues even in 25s. I don’t do 10 mans and rarely heroics, which is why I took few mana talents in the first place, because everyone tells me mana shouldn’t be an issue in 25s.

Ah, I thought you were in a 10-man. That explains it. lol Though compared to SV, MM is a black hole for mana. When I was SV, it's like I didn't even need a mana bar. Nassira’s last blog post..Ur Mom

Yeah, when I am in 25, I never have issues with mana at all whether I’m MM or SV (I switch back and forth quite a bit). You will notice a huge difference in mana when you run heroics and 10 mans as a MM. I like MM’s rotation and its definitely the most enjoyable to play IMO, but I love SV because I’m not worrying about running out of mana.

Korixys: I was in Naxx 25. I was having no mana issues at all – not really sure why! I know that MM is usually considered very mana-intensive, but I certainly was happy with it.

No no, I was using less mana as MM than I was as BM I had zero points in Efficiency or anything like that as BM, and I even had Multi-shot as part of my shot rotation. I had to use Viper almost every boss fight. I only raided as Survival for 1 or 2 nights, and I don’t remember what my mana consumption was like.

You weren’t having any mana issues as a MM? Were you in Naxx 10 or 25?

I'm glad you like it! But um...how on earth were you using less mana as MM than as Surv?? This is confusing me. MM is very mana-intensive. Nassira’s last blog post..Ur Mom
