What platform are you running Path of Building on?
Windows
What is the behaviour in-game?
I have Herald of Ice reserved using Arrogance in a Foulborn The Coming Calamity (in case it matters). When I allocate Chaos Inoculation, Herald of Ice is disabled and my life is unreserved.
What is the behaviour in Path of Building?
Instead of removing my Herald of Ice reservation, PoB tells me that I have reserved 100% of my life bar.
How to reproduce the issue
- Reserve some life via Arrogance.
- Allocate Chaos Inoculation.
- Note "Unreserved Life" calculates incorrectly.
This also happens if Blood Magic and Chaos Inoculation are allocated at the same time, and I presume applies to other life reservation methods as well.
PoB for PoE1 build code
https://pobb.in/pLG2I9JMFcT6
You can see in this pob that I have -588 life reserved; this is the cost of level 21 clarity with arrogance attached (293 * 2.01 = 588.92), with the other 1 hp reserved by Herald of Ice. Disabling the Clarity gem section brings it back to 0% unreserved life.
I noticed this while trying to figure out where to allocate some points via the node power calculator. The reserved life being set to 100% causes effects like Farewell to Flesh from the new Lycia ascendancy to miscalculate the damage they provide significantly.

Research direction
No source file or test is identified in the report. Load the provided PoB build code, reproduce the Arrogance or Blood Magic plus Chaos Inoculation case, and trace the life-reservation calculation that produces 100% reserved life. Done means life reservation is disabled or calculated correctly after Chaos Inoculation, including the reported damage calculation.
