DK Magicka Generation in 1.1

✭✭✭
Now that Inhale and Ultimate generation has been nerfed, what tactics are DKs using to maintain Magicka? (for those who don't know, ultimates and inhale are the only DK abilities which give magicka).
Right now I'm using Siphon Spirit and spamming magicka pots.

✭The same ones as they are before, because Zenimax refuses to see the real issues at hand: light armor, magicka furnace, etc.0 -

Shaun98ca2✭✭✭✭✭I think people rely too heavily on their Magicka Attacks and forget they have Light and Heavy attacks.
My Templar has NO issues with Magicka and doesn't use POTs of any kind I sell them for the gold.
No occasionally if I spam an ability till im out of Mana I have an issue but as long as I don't do that I don't have a problem.
I think too many people are used too MMO's that DONT have a resourse conservation mechanic like TESO does. Most all other MMO's I have played you can cast a spell over and over at nausea and still have mana.
TESO is more about being conservative and using the right abilities for the right situation just because you CAN spam your Magicka Attack over and over again doesn't mean you SHOULD.0 -

Lupinemw✭✭✭Mix and match armour sets help. Either a max magika which I feel is better as I'm at the softcap for my Magika regen.
Mundus effects as well.

mmm I may be wrong (since I'm still downloading...) but inhale nerf only hit the "initial healing drain target number" it should not hit the "damage target number"... and since the magika recovery is based on the damage dealt and not the healing recived the change should not affect the magika recovery of this ability... or am I missing something?
about ultimate generation... it was too much.... running with magma armor 24/7 as long as you had more than 1 opponent was too much... (and since I have yet to see numbers on this I hold my breath before saing that now you can't have your magma armor perma up as long as there at least a couple of enemy to hit...)... on the other hand the increase of single target ultimate genration may turn things much more easy during boss fight that don't have adds (actualy that is where DK had to be a little more allert since they couldn't hold magma armor up 24/7 and had to use some more skill to mitigate damage...)0 -

Amulrei✭I like how DKs are shocked that mana is indeed not supposed to be an infinite resource.
P.S Thanks for exploiting the hell out of that and getting Impulse ruined for all of us.Edited by Amulrei on 23 May 2014 12:212 -

You're not missing very much except for one thing. I suppose DKs are used to pulling 6 or more mobs at once and then spam inhale. And 20% of dmg returned as magicka on 6+ mobs is at least twice the amount they get for 3 mobs.
Now that inhale only drains life for 3 mobs, pulling 6 or more becomes dangerous as they can't sustain this amount of incoming damage without using dragon's blood (which costs magicka as well).
