Talk:Penury

Conserve MP not working with Penury?
I was a bit curious if Conserve MP would occur before or after the use of Penury so I ran some tests. I used Reraise II with Addendum: White.

The cost of Reraise II show in the interface under each effect: 135 (With Light Arts Active) 180 (With Dark Arts Active... though cannot cast without Addendum: White) 150 (With neither Active)

Using Penury (which does not stack with the 10% Light Arts Bonus)

Wearing Clarus Stone (Conserve MP+3) and Austerity Belt (Conserve MP +8) 943 -> 901 (Cost: 42mp)

No Clarus + Austerity 901 -> 859 (Cost: 42mp)

Without using Penury:

Wearing Clarus Stone and Austerity Belt 859 -> 724 (Cost: 135)

No Clarus + Austerity 724 -> 589 (Cost: 135)

I'm a bit confused regarding Conserve MP, I'm wearing Savant's Pants +1 AF3 which should have Conserve MP always active under the effect of Penury. Yet as you can see there's no difference in final MP consumption between wearing the extra gear for Conserve MP over the base Conserve MP.
