Short story....
I'm in Molten Core tanking some Molten Giants, put out a couple rations and notice; my god I'm out of mana! So I check buffs, got BoS, SoW and am using JoW...
Now, I have tanked MC many times, and never have I gone oom, until now. Is there a change here with a buff that I am not noticing? Yes, I am specced into 2/2 Spiritual Attunement.

Being level
70
, I take little damage on trash. However as I said, I have tanked MC many times without even a minor mana problem.
I took down two of the Molten Giants solo, just so I could keep an eye on eveything, and yet I still see the same problem and no explanation. Has BoS changed?

So they did change BoS... hm.
Keep in mind that MC was never meant to be tanked by a pally - You'll probably not have the OOM problem when you get divine plea at 80
As I said, I have tanked MC countless times as a Paladin - without any mana problem.

Are you saying the we don't get mana from misses anymore? *checks above post quoting patch notes* Damnit. That explains everything. I actually haven't done a level 70~ instance since the patch, just MC and SM... both in which I had mana problems. I want my infinite mana back!

I don't recall specifically the old BoS tooltip, I wonder if there is a way I could find it.... Obviously now though, no mana is gained from misses, which seems now to be the most likely explanation.
Before this unsolved mystery... I had never had mana problems, I'd rarely even use water at all, now I find myself at around half mana after every pull.

wat.
Anyway tank more things at once. even a lvl 60 should be taking more than a couple.
Stop casting cons all the time :P

The mana efficiency of 3.1 relies slightly on Divine Plea, a spell at level 71.

All of our main abilities also got a jump in mana price since our talents no longer reduce the cost. Also I'm not 100% sure but I think the base cost of some abilities also went up. Either way you are now using up more mana in your basic rotation. Once you get Divine Plea though everything should even out.
Sounds like I can 100% sure trust this post to be 100% maybe almost corect sometimes, but im not sure.

I'm not quite sure what you're referring to there, Quest.
