Is 1% mp steal enough to not run out while in bm2/comboing? Thinking of investing some AP into an MP steal rune.

Thanks.

It won't be enough to use NO mp pot, but it takes a lot more time to get to 0 mp. If you don't use vamp earrings(with mp steal per hit), it might be pretty useless

nah i'd use vamp ears, just worried about the %. Pet has no mp steal, so kinda outta luck with that. Might invest the ap just to reduce the time, maybe put another level into it after i do a couple other runes.

thanks for the inputs

1% can be enough, it depends on the damage you do.

Mp is the last problem a high lvl should think abt, getting around Mana freeze is something to think about.

with my bl, I used Mp Rune, and it is now lvl 6 and my pet has a fail slot of +30 Mp hahahah mther FUc..en Garlie. With Force increase, i am Mana Freze Proof

The whole point of hp/mp steal rune is to vamp without a force absorb ring...

It keeps you from using mp pots. Sounds useful to me.

Firstly, I have enough HP steal in my rune and pet. Second, the reason for the mp steal rune is to avoid using a ring(costing 15 cdi). And we're talking about wi here..considering its in the wi section. And yes, you do run out of MP very quickly in bm2 especially without any mp steal.

But anyway, auto-potting causes significant DPS loss in bm2, so not having to do that allows you to achieve your maximum potential output. And yes it does save pots, but mostly it saves the hassle of monitoring MP to pot manually which is the big key factor.

I used the mp steal rune and it works alright for me for now, i'll eventually upgrade it to level 2 after I get my other runes out of the way.

1% is definitely not enough. If you go that path, might as well max it. Manually clicking the mp pot is not that bad either, unless the cost of the pot is bothering you too much and you have nothing else to do with your AP.
