    Transfer Charges When Mana Battery Is Upgraded to Power Supply

    If you have unused charges remaining on Mana Battery, those charges should remain on your Power Supply after upgrading.

    Right now Power Supply is 240 gold for essentially +1 stats (and potential for more total charges). I feel it is very important that the user is not penalized of up to 100 health and 150 mana when upgrading.

    inb4: "just use the charges before upgrading."
    respones: Sometimes you upgrade in base, or your already have full health and mana, or you simply want to save the charges for last second emergencies (which is really what this item is all about anyways).

    Edit: To clarify, upgrading to Power Supply currently resets charges to zero.

    Only problem I see is if it saves you from death, but it's better than eating charges.
    My goal is for at least one of my heroes to be ported into HoN! Help my cause and get S2 to see these!

    It's OP already. Support the change as it's sensible but the cost would have to go up.

    Bump.

    You've already earned the charges. Don't see why they should disappear when paying 240g for +1 stats.

    You're not just paying 240g for +1 stats. You also gain 5 more max charges and more mana returned. Having it as it is right now makes you think twice about upgrading it.

    That is my main problem with it. I like to buy mana battery and a few minor totems as starting items.

    However I sometimes don't upgrade it to power supply and instead sell my minor totems to clear up inventory because I do not want to give up my 8 or 9 charges.

    Upgrades should be situational.

    Tho the point that mana battery is more OP than PS is a good one.

    Perhaps instead raise the price of mana battery - to 250g? Bottle received a significant nerf, chalice is pretty weak now compared to this item which (upgraded or not) has saved me countless times.

    i think that mana battery should be 300, and power supply 140. Same overall cost, but weighted to the battery, since you get 90% of the benefit from that.
