I saw this among the new masteries on PoeDB, in the 'caster' category:

"Spells cause you to gain Mana equal to their Cost every fifth time you cast them."

How will this interact with repeats granted by spell echo? I couldn't remember whether they count as 'you casting' or not. If they do, this could be pretty good for Archmage builds that use Pledge of Hands + Spell Echo, since it would trigger almost every second cast.

With spell echo you are casting the spell once, and that cast repeats. You are not casting again.

Also, that mastery technically doesn't do that; what it actually does, and will be described as in the final release, is happen every 5th time you pay a skill's cost (which makes no difference in the repeating case, but is important for channeling).
