I can confirm this. For some reason I didnt think much of it till i saw this post, but im definately spawning with the same mana left as before death.

It was something that was happening in the server's infancy which was later fixed. It's possible that a certain fix rebroke this. But yeah, this was a bug a long time ago.

wow
 

every death since i started playing has been like this. i thought it was intended

every death since oct 2010 . we had a conversation about that topic in guild shortly befor i went mia . so AT LEAST since that time you reappear with same mana after a death .

same here
 

yeah im having this issue with my necro, i was chased down bu 9 skellies and kobolds in toxx, 4% mana when i took my dirt nap, pop back up in paineel and im still at 4%. happened about 12min ago >.<

I have had this happen for every death I've encountered since level 1. I started P99 in the beginning of March with this occurring. Even with deaths that should not result in a loss of experience (Below level 5 I believe?) I die with the same amount of mana which I had prior to dying.

To be honest, I do not remember how it was during live. I could remember dying then sitting with my spellbook open for an amount of time memorizing spells and medding for a little bit. I've grown to expect the mana staying the same before and after death so it's not an issue, however it would be amazing if I died and came back to my bind point with full mana.

I've seen this for months. It doesn't happen all the time. I repop with less than full mana a little less than half my character's deaths. Most if not all of them were xp losses.

I didn't see this on patch notes, but just died with necro who was lom and respawned fom. Was this fixed?
