Reputation: 4 | | | [DK] Lower Runic Power costs dramatically *Cliche "I'm a leecher" comment goes here*
Okay, so I was in Ulduar the other day and a Disc Priest jokingly cast Power Infusion on me. I noticed my Death Coil had 8 RP removed from its cost (-20% cost, just like the -mana cost of the spell).
Like any responsible adult I quickly ran a search for -mana cost items.
It lead me to Burst of Knowledge, the classic "I wish I had a real healing trinket" item my priest used 3 years ago.
Aaaanyway, here's a screenshot of the result: http://i31.tinypic.com/4ig9ox.jpg
-100 Mana Cost translates to -10 RP cost.
I assume this stacks with PI and would lead to either 14RP Frost Strikes or some other number because -mana cost isn't that simple.
There is also another trinket, Spark of Hope, that is a passive -42 mana cost that I assume would be -4RP. Currently I have healers in front of me on that one so I can't say I can test that one.

A second note - I wouldn't want to use a trinket with that long of a cooldown just to reduce RP by 10 on my stuff :\

Well, umm... I guess it isn't as awesome as I thought. Quote:

I don't even know what you mean by this comment, but I'll assume it's meaningless.

I know that Blizzard has been hot fixing items to no longer reduce RP costs.

Man, I was so happy to discover something, and it turns out other people already knew about it. Oh well. |

Reputation: 6 Level up: 6%, 472 Points needed |  | | | well, auslese's light channeler is better for it, frost strike is an ability, not a spell
...like crusader strike i guess?
anyhow, it wont consume the charge that reduces the manacost, but it WILL reduce its cost
thus: for 10 seconds you will reduce the cost by 21/22, as long as u dont use a real spell to consume it (i.e. death coil, which would be strange anyhow) |
