PvE Seeker Out of Mana!

Seem to have a problem keeping up my mana levels when running PvE/ grinding. Either using tons of pots or resting every third to fifth mob (depending on skill use and speed). Am I the only one? or am I spamming skills too much for basic grinding?

Have previously been a Wiz with cleric partner, understand life won't be quite that good for MP/buffs. Also not a fan of buying charms (mostly free user), but understand it can be useful.

Thanks for any advice.

    Perhaps use less skills and more sparks....every class had that
    Mystic: 99 lvl (Main)
    Psychic: 96 lvl (Alt)
    Assassin: 78 lvl (Retired)
    Cleric: 75 lvl (Retired)

    Big bumpy ride since 2008

    Get some Divine Honors from completing Divine Contract quests, then make some Life Poultice of Death from the Divine Emissary of the Void. You'll be set then, trust me. :)

    I know you said you dont like buying charms, but seriously a plat mana charm will last you so long and make life so much easier it isn't funny. Unless you afk vortex for a few hours straight you will barely notice it going down.

    The Mana charm from the event shop isnt a bad option either if your having trouble getting the emmisary pots plus they free though guess that actualy depends on how much ya farm dq items.

    Sparking and then skill spamming would help too.

    That makes no sense. Debuff (Heart Shatter) only works for SKILLS not normal attacks. If you are going to debuff, you may as well skill spam even more.

    If you are talking Northern Sky Waltz and Staggering then sure....I guess. Still, if you choose not to spam skills, then you will start to whinge that you have to constantly use hp pots, because you take way more damage than you should from the longer fights.

    Awesome guys, thanks for the quick responses. looks like learning apotha, working with the divine orders, and backing off just a little on the skills will do wonders.

    Also will look into the mana charm -- a one time buy for weeks of result is much more palatable than like a daily buy!
    Thanks,
