Weave the Arcane

Weave the Arcane is a notable Ascendancy passive skill for the Trickster. It increases maximum mana, removes mana cost from skills with the Movement tag, grants increased attack speed and cast speed if you have used a Movement skill recently, grants a chance to recover a percentage of maximum mana on active skill use.

Mechanics

Channelled skills: The modifier 20% chance to Recover 10% of Maximum Mana when you use a Skill only applies when one activates a channelled skill for the first time. It does not continue to grant mana recovery as one spends additional mana on channelled skills that are already activated.

Mines: When a Movement skill is supported by a gem which turns it into a mine (such as Blastchain Mine Support), the mana cost of the skill is converted to Mana Reserved before hand. This means that skills Like Lightning Warp will still reserve mana based on the original cost of the skill. "Movement Skills cost no Mana" has no impact on skills which are converted to Mines.
