Problem with sorcerer armor and LMC

[Xalan Dementia]

ok so i got a char that uses chivalry, for now this char wears the sorcerer outfit thats supposed to have lower mana cost on it, well it isnt working. i cast divine fury (regular 15 mana cost) and it still costs me 15 mana. now when i equip normal lower mana cost items it actually lowers the cost. anyone else seen this happen?

Hmmm.. I hope it works. I was going to get that suit. But, if its not working I will pass on it. Thanks for the heads up. I hope someone else notices so we can get an answer...

Sorcerer suit has only 5% LMC.

15 x 95% = 15 (round up)

That is true, but it all depends on how UO rounds.

15 x 95% = 14.25, so round up = 15, round off = 14, round down = 14

each piece has 5 lmc, it caps at 40. if it was total of 5 it would say Lower mana Cost 5% (total). and even with just 5 lmc it still lowers my cost on divine fury from 15 to 14

i went on test center and tested it. with 100 mana without the suit i casted consecrate weapon and it used 10 mana. With the suit on and 100 mana it used 9 mana.

Just tested on KR, makes it a lot easier to see what is wrong.

There is either a typo in the description of the armor is bugged.

With the sorcerer's suit you get...
Total of 2 MR, all 70's resists, 160 LRC, 10 DCI, and 5 LMC

In other words, except for the LRC and the resists, it should read [total] for every trait.

yea, i dont use kr much so didnt notice. It is misleading, hopefully they fix the label for 2d.
