Infinite mana?! Help!

I installed tons of mods this afternoon, and everything was going fine. I went into a random cave, and all of a sudden my magicka regen was through the friggin roof, I literally couldn't run out of mana. My channeled heal spell (the most basic one) didn't cost any mana all of a sudden, and when I would conjure my Frost Atronach or my bound battleaxe my mana would be back to 100% in about 2 seconds. I went through my active effects, and the only thing that seemed out of place was "fortify magic +25," but would 25 really make it this drastic?

(NOTE: The "magicka regen" on the screenshot is a mere 40% from my enchanted plate armor-- so that's not it)

Why complain? This sounds like a blessing! I'll take your "problem" any day, instead of casting 2 spells then cowering in a corner for 5 mins till I can cast another 2 spells.

Ahh you remind me of me on Oblivion...

I only download mods by trusted authors or if they have at least 80 endorsemants and good comments. I learned the hard way when I used to mod Oblivion. I had about 30 mods running at the same time with allot by unknown authors... it was real messy and time consuming trying to find which mods were causing issues and conflicts :ahhh: . I now only use high quality mods and make sure they are fully compatible before I even think about downloading them.

They were all highly rated at the Steam Workshop, and like I said I played for a few hours today with no hiccups at all. This is weird.

This is a problem. If I wanted to cheat I'd cheat. The game's easy enough without exploiting. I'm going heavy armor, which gives me good damage mitigation but I sacrifice on mana (until I hit master enchanter). If I have the best of both worlds, what's the point?

Steam Workshop is crap...it is full of bad features and bugs. Like the 50 mod limit and the fact that there is not search function. Those are kind horrendously ridiculous oversights.

This comes from Winterhold College quest for Drevis when you clear the Focal Points. There is a chance to get this buged debuff.

There is a search function now. I hear that the mod limit will be lifted soon as well. So far I'm in love with the mods I have, I just have to figure out this magicka issue.

Bingo. I just finished that quest. Thank you. (I assume when the debuff wears off magic will regen normally)

This has happened to me in vanilla and I can assure you that it will go away in time. I was more mad that it disappeared eventually rather than worried when I noticed it.
