Hey guys. My mag is lvl 25. I currently use a lvl 25 earth charm and it seems like i run out of mana extremely fast. Maybe after 3-4 mobs.
just wondering if there's any suggestions to help with this. This is extremely annoying during catas

ill try to see what i can find.
also, i was under the impression that mage's were good character's to well with.
Unfortunately i get my ass handed to me. Here's my gear, i thought it was pretty good.

Rare iron dagger,
Damage: 18 to 32,
+1% Life Steal,
+19 Intelligence

Magical woolen robe, Defense: 0 to 3,
+11 Intelligence

Magical earth VIII,
Spell Damage: 112 to 197,
+65% Enhanced Effect

i put initial 5 points into vit and rest into int

maybe i should remake?

the gear is not bad, i played a mage my last 6 climbs.
imo:
all int!

lvl 1-10 mana per kill on weap+armor
then i used a lvl 10 staff with 16 int, and a lvl 10 robe with 17 int.
on lvl 30 i switched to 35 int robe and 34 int staff <- that costed me around 550fg total. its ok for mq and i was able to use it from lvl 30

for charms: just get as much ee as possible.
i was able to chain like ~13 monsters with a 130ee charm. also get a ~100% heal charm.

and +mana regen gear will help u to regen faster smile.gif

Thanks for the input. As you can see the fg i have accumilated will not get the best of gear atm but maybe with me grinding ill be able to find some decent gear.
I was wondering if i should go all Int, guess im on the right path there. Now just need some EE gear and i should be good to go tongue.gif

this seems like a legit idea but it still comes down to me not managing my mana use effectively. I guess i'll post in a bit after i invest some time/fg into finding some nice heal charms

With the lack of fg, its best that you put the 5 into vitality to begin with.

Until you get better gear you will need the life boost.
