Don't know how this happend but my mage is casting spells without using magicka. The annoying thing is I can't remember when this started and how it happened. I know I was using magicka before I started the college quests, then I went out ot pick up a book for the orc and that's when I noticed my magicka wasn't dropping. Even after removing my gear I still don't lose magicka, so it isn't something I'm wearing. Anyone else had this weird glitch?

you may want to lock up your computer/console... lots of people are going to want to get at your savegame

During the college quests there were two points I got a glitch that gave me ridiculously magic regen. It was so fast my magic was back to full before done casting. It's a temporary thing that will go away, enjoy it while you have it

it's temporary? Good to hear, thought I may have to re-start my game from the beginning.
