POE 2 - Mind Over Mater not working

I was surrounded in the drowned city by a mob while playing witch. I have Mind Over Matter on the ascension tree, but i was killed without any damage taken from mana.
I have no other items or nods that influence life/mana (except for increases in regen) besides "The Devouring Diadem".
Thank you!

River Hag casts a greenish water ball that pursues you and inflicts the "Drowning" debuff

You are drowning and will die soon

Unless you break away from it, it'll just kill you.

I had the same issue, I removed MOM, logged out, logged back in and re-selected it. Not saying it will work, just what I did and it has been working.

However, one issue I encounter is that I die instantly when I drink a mana potion. It must reset the mana to 0 in the calculation for a split second as the potion tops off my mana pool, thereby any damage taken kills me even though I have plenty of mana.

so I cannot take a mana potion during combat.

Make sure your mana flask hasn't got "Removes 15% of Mana Recovered from Life when used" mod. That's what usually surprise CI builds at least.

Oh thanks a ton for this post! I google'd Mind Over Matter not working as I have saved lots of videos where I died with 2000 mana. I had the same take life away to heal mana on my flask xD Killing myself with my 1/1 hp. Hahaha
