i currently have a gnome priest if you couldnt tell by the title, and i have been looking at a lot of gear sets for the upcoming mogging option. the look of the gear is very unappealing to me on a gnome and i was thinking about doing a race change to something large enough that i could see more detail. my question is regarding the gnome racial for the bonus to mana. is it just the size of the mana pool that goes down or is it intel that goes down so id be losing out on spell crits and spell damage bc of that. im currently in firelands and in disc have 141k mana raid buffed no procs. i never have trouble being low on mana in either disc or shadow spec. so if all im going to lose is a bit of replenishment, id say screw it and go for the looks if i dont need it.
