Reading the limits
These are the installed character-sheet help rules. They are ceilings or floors, not a promise that a level-1 hero starts at the cap. Class base values and final totals depend on current hero data, equipment and progression.
Mana generation and cooldown reduction describe different parts of skill readiness. A cooldown-reduction cap does not replace the mana requirement.
