Magic-Eater's Arsenal, Page 1
The Staff charges I had after the fight (and recalling out). Healing, Destruction, Speed, Teleport, Enlightenment, and Holiness were by far the most useful ones on this page. Mana Storm actually saw pretty limited use during Serpent fights, because if the J was not next to me, Rockets or Disintegrate did more damage, and if it was next to me, Slayer was better. If the Serpent Summoned, I teleported out. In fact, I mostly used Mana Storm to clear drops and search for artifacts, after I figured I had a sufficient stock of potions.

Wow, that's crazy. There's a staff of Holiness? O.o

I'm working on a Magic-eater, but it's only got half of what you do. I've been wondering... I know a Potion of Restore Mana will replenish spell charges, so does a Staff of the Magi do the same? How many Manastorm charges does it restore. O.o Will it restore it's OWN charges?

Cause if Magi restores itself, then that's unlimited spellcasting.

It should work that way, but I was quite disappointed to learn with my Heng magic-eater attempts that using a staff of the magi as an absorbed power does *nothing*. I'm not sure if it works if it is used just as an item.

The only Staff of Holiness I got was through the Arena... it was one of the rarer ones, which was why I didn't risk charging it past 10 (that's where the real failure rate starts kicking in. I think before 10 there's just like a 5% base chance or so).

Magi doesn't do anything, except remove Berserk. I remember reading ahorowitz's character posts before, which is why I didn't try supercharging that one. Didn't think to try it as an item..

Oh, and I typically notice that a !oRestoreMana or a charge from the Charmed Pendant will restore 1/3 of your max charges for everything. So, in my case, that would be about 7.
