It's been about a month that I got back into the game, quit in 2000-2001.
I managed to kill my first champ solo (Mephitis). Not without difficulties, but I managed. I have not tried the others yet. I had a ton of mana issues maybe someone can help me out with? I am constantly out of mana when I fight anything for a prolong period.
I've watch Sampire videos and they do not seem to have any Mana issues that I have been having. Mana and stam is perfect during spawning phases with whirlwind. Boss fight one on one my mana is an issue. What am I missing? People seem to be able to use double strike or armor ignore non stop. I definitely cannot.
Went with a pretty common template i found here:
120 Swords
120 Tactics
120 Bushido
100 Necro
80 Chiv
60 Parry
100 Resist/Anat (either on stone)
I still have 20 skillpoints I have not decided what to do with. 100chiv? 80 parry? I also have 80 parry on another character I can swap over. Any suggestions?

I got the Swordsmanship mastery for defeating Mephitis, working on killing Dreadhorn for the Bushido one. I have crafted 100% elemental weapons with the proper slayers and HML 62%, HSL 50%.
I open the fight with honor, EOO.
Where and how can I get better mana leech/management? Is there something I am missing?
Maybe a skill I am not using? or a build issue? a mastery i need to use? a stance or mana recovery skill?
Do I need more LMC? I am using a combo of 3 pieces crafted woodland, 2 peices heavy valorite crafted/imbued and M&S glasses. Now that I got the warriors gift passive I can redo my suit for more LMC or higher mana? I currently have 42LMC
Should I redo with all studded for more LMC?
I seen people with higher HML % weapons. Is that what I need? my imbuing only allows me 62%, is there a way to go higher like some of the weapons I seen?
I am able to go either Bladed staff or double axe... I have crafted a set of both elemental with slayers. What weapon would you suggest in my overall template that may help with my mana issues?
Appreciate any help from the experts here.
