    Math confusion - +20 int but -2235 mana

    So I picked up a new set of pants today. They had a nice chunk of Haste instead of Mastery and a Red instead of Yellow socket, so I took them, gemmed them, and added a spell thread.

    Old pants [http://www.wowhead.com/item=63464]
    New pants [http://www.wowhead.com/item=58107]

    The 3 core stats are a wash, so the ONLY differences are the Gems, socket bonuses, and combat ratings.
    New gems = 60 intellect, 20 spirit
    Old gems = 40 intellect, 20 spirit, 20 haste.
    Ratings (discounting reforging) is a swap from Mastery to Haste.

    So can someone explain why I lose 2,235 mana when equipping the new pants? There must be something obvious to explain this...

    SS or it didn't happen:

    did you have kings up when you were looking at one? are you using a gear-swapping mod/bliz ui that is also equipping a different piece of gear? how is your intellect affected?
