Enter active mode, HP maximum (in Attributes / Gear menu) remains at 1933, but current HP total drops to 1853
Cast cure on self, floating text shows 80 HP gained, but current HP total remains at 1853
Case sacrifice on self, HP gain is the same, but HP regeneration effect will raise current HP to 1933
Entering passive stance, current HP slowly regenerates to 1933

Also tested eating Grilled Dodo while in active mode, with no change.

This has been happening since open beta and yes, it's very odd.
