Damage taken goes to mana not working

I currently have 70% damage to mana. but when i get hit my health drops by 30, and my mana doesnt move. surely if my health drops by 30, then mana should drop 70. thus 70%

Thats not what the affix is (its not a mana shield).
Damage Taken goes to mana is just that, % of the damage taken gets added to your mana.

Heres the full description:
Damage Taken Goes to Mana returns mana to a player character equivalent to a percentage of final attack damage applied: if no damage is applied then no mana is returned. It does not divert damage from life to mana, or reduce damage to life in any way.

With 70 % damage to mana, a hit of 100 would remove 100 life and give you 70 mana.

Daaaaaamn I thought it works like AJCorb says. Another day another discovery in D2. That damage reduction would probably be too op :smiley:
