Mana Reduction!

  How much does the Mana Reduction Passive skill(the one you need Karis for) actually reduce Mana usage? Is it worth it?

  10%. and you don't need a karis, you can use bbf/magic school uniform/karis shoes.

  Because people like expensive, rare (not so much anymore) things.

  So in the end, Karis isn't really worth it? o-o

  if you want it ONLY for the mana reduction, no
  
  If you want it because of the looks and mana reduction... and because you have the money... yes why not?

  Wat.
  
  It looks hot on males. If I saw a guy irl with that thing on I would go grrr lol
  
  Anyhow... MANA REDUCTION SET. IS. USELESS.
  
  Yeah I said it. From a mage to you.

  Ignore him. The set decreases mana usage by 10%. If that's important to you, by all means go for it.
• Akemii wrote on 2010-11-26 03:14
  I mean I guess it would help, right...? 10%- mana usage i could use Ice Spear more, since Humans have a suckish MP usage on them D:

  Wow like 10% reduction set with crappy def and prot for clothing that cannot be upgraded is better than an armor. OBVIOUSLY. We should pay attention to Kaeporo cause he is such a pro mage!
  
  Edit:
  
  If you're looking for a good answer, Blizaga, it is the same I gave you initially. A wand for MP reduction is superior than Karis. 10% alone is useless unless you have high ranked adv magic. Also, I have covered this issue in other threads and it is my believe and I talk from experience when I say that humans should use heavy armor when fighting.
  
  You get more benefits from it. Marginal benefit of a 10% reduction set when using IS is like 3.2MP while opportunity cost is "sacrificing" def and prot, as well as melee pd. Also, I know this whole thing of "you shouldn't get hit", but you will get hit, several times, even if you do things right, particularly in a party. Do you want to get 1 hit ko'd? Of course not.
  
  So yeah, Karis is just for looks.
