Astral Projection

[Elli]

Mana you use while shifting in astral form takes mana from your spirit, not your body. Thus, when you use Relinquish, you find your back at whatever mana you had when you first cast astral form (plus whatever you might have regen'd since).

The spell is very inconsistent with what happens when the spell ends...
When you use Relinquish, you are lagged for several seconds and your hp is cut in half. If instead you shift until you run oom, you return to your body with no lag, no health change, but zero mana. In the third case, if someone attacks your body, the spell breaks with no health/mana change or lag. And finally, when my spirit was killed by "slipping and falling" down the lava pit in basalt catacombs, I returned to my body with full hp and mana.

It is a bit silly that mobs like maglats in shargob can pull your astral form around. Also, a lot of mobs try to emote at your spirit even though they can't see it and you get an emote with no name like, "Mob turns and snarls at ."
