There is a mana calculation s/w in EQSS, pretty useful. Thou' it's a very
small file but it's not my habit to send attached files over mailing list
(scare kena whacked). Those who are interested can d/l them.

Btw now I really regret allocating 20 points on my STR, and the remaining
on STA and INT, sigh.
If I have an opportunity restart a char, I will still play a wiz, but for
race, I will either choose:
1. Human
Dump max point into INT, the rest to DEX. Since all other stats are quite
balance, I will buy all INT jewelries to boost my INT further. With no xp
penalty, shld be able to lvl quite fast. The night vision problem can be
solved using lightglobe (lvl 1 spell) or light bank (lvl 16 spell).
OR
2. Erudite
Dump max point into INT, the rest to DEX. Thou' got more INT, but also got
10% xp penalty, kinda offset as compared to human. Night vision thingy
applies. This race is the best option for ultimate killer-nuker at lvl 50,
hehe.

Of coz, if I dun mind the look and short sight, I can select gnome for
power play - best choice for solo caster in my opinion, due to the high
INT, DEX and AGI.

Dark Elf is out of question since i dun really like to role-play as an evil
race, where in RL or in game, unless the power-play capability is worth
been a evil char ;)

Oh, anyone ever think of playing in the race war server? Heheh OK OK, dun
throw parang first lah. I'm only asking, hehe. Read quite a few articles
in the net on the coming race war server (eg analysing which group is more
or less powerful), sound pretty fun and have lot of role-play elements.
One thing for sure, it's gonna be a VERY difficult server to survive
(since u will be KOS in many places), hehe.
