My mana is constantly being drained into the negative without me using spells

[Lace Black]

Anyone know what is cauing it? it's causing me a ton of trouble.

Apparently it was the mana baths draining my mana, I lowered it down to one bath and it was still sapping my mana into the negative when I should have easily had 2k mana reserves. Can the devs explain the baths to me? they seem largely imbalanced with how much mana even just one bath uses.

Very strange, I've had 8+ baths running just fine with no real mana issues. Another thing that can drain mana is when a demon dies—they suck down mana until they are revived. Have you been losing a lot of demon units in combat?

The amount of mana drained depends on how many high level demons u have, not how many baths u own. Also When demon dies he drain your mana to revive himself.

Yeah I know about the demons reviving with mana, that's why I don't use them often in combat. I just had one succubus for conversions and two imps for mana gathering, none of them saw any combat on the regular.

Are you saying that your available mana is constantly at or near zero? Are your demons actually working in the arcanium? If your mana storage is full you might see it drop briefly while the baths are being filled, but it should be restored shortly as your demons go to generate more mana.

IIRC one bath takes 100 mana to fill. Not sure how often demons need to bathe, but probably every 5 minutes or so.

And that is only higher level demons, and if what he says is true he won't have that high level demons as he doesn't use them in combat.

But without a layout of his dungeon and army composition it is hard to pin down why he struggles with mana so much.

Also could be that he ran into a rare bug that we haven't seen ourself. In that case he best send his savefile over to support.

Yes my minions are working the arcanium... Something was drainning my mana gain faster than I could gain it. Constantly stuck at 0.

Are you producing a lot of magic boxes at the same time? They also need mana.

If you dont use does demons for nothing else then mana production maybe its a good idea to lvl them some. I am not 100% sure on that but i think this made a big diffrence in mana production.

You could even train them in the training room (horde tree).

I personaly have at the very least 4 demon produce mana constantly (except for when i move out to attack of course) mid to late game or else it becomes a problem for me 2.
