I prefer to use mana elixers and I'm lvl 119. They help prevent from over-potting and wasting your mesos, instead of waiting to use all your mp just to use an NLC pot.

If you're going for NLC pots go with supreme pizzas or waffles. Cheaper than elixirs.

1mana=620mesos(not sure if it is) 1147:300=3.8xx just make it 4 then 620x4=2480mesos and for those 1500mp pot for 1.5k its 1147mesos 2480-1147=1253mesos Profit so in the end using those 1500mp pots are cheaper then mana's now. EDIT: i 4got to show how i got to the 1147mesos part its 1500:1500=1x1147=1147

mana elixers can be bought in FM commonly for 300-400 mesos. just spend a few minutes looking around. with the huge amount of ppl skeleing, thoussands upon thousnds of mana elixers are looted every day.

On my WK I use supreme pizzas. 600mp and 900hp. I'm usually not at full hp when I use em so they save me a lot of mesos.

Do you have any equipment that boosts your mp? Or do you wear int gears before level ups?

If you regularly wait until you need to recover about 750 MP before using a potion, then sorcerer's elixirs from NLC will be more cost efficient than mana elixirs. Mana elixirs recover 1 MP per 2.2 mesos, while sorcerer's elixirs recover 1 MP per 1 meso. If you waste half the sorcerer's elixir, then you're effectively spending 2.0 mesos per MP, which is slightly cheaper than a mana elixir. And of course, if you recover more than 750 MP with your sorcerer's elixir, then it costs even less than 2 mesos per MP until you get to where you're recovering a full 1.5K MP per 1.5K mesos. So if you just straight up buy mana or sorcerer's elixirs from NPCs and recover 750+ MP per potion regularly, then sorcerer's elixirs will be more cost efficient. If you can find cheap mana elixirs in the free market though, those might be more cost efficient. It depends on how much MP you regularly recover, and the price that the mana elixirs are being sold at. However, free market sellers probably won't be likely to sell their mana elixirs at 330 mesos per elixir or less, because if they did then it would be easier to just NPC them. So you aren't very likely to find mana elixirs at a price that makes them any better than 1.1 meso per 1 MP because merchants would lose out if they sold them that low. That would be the equivalent of recovering 1,364 MP per sorcerer's elixir though, which is more than you have, so if you get lucky enough to find mana elixirs at 330 mesos then it'll probably be the most efficient. If you found mana elixirs at 400 mesos per elixir, that would be the equivalent in price of recovering 1,072 MP per sorcerer's elixir. At that point it just depends on whether or not you regularly recover your MP from almost empty. Conclusion: If you recover 750+ MP per potion and buy them from NPCs all the time, sorcerer's elixirs are the most cost efficient. If you buy your mana elixirs in the free market for 330~400 mesos per elixir, you would need to recover 1,364~1,072 MP per mana elixir to be as efficient.

I haven't bought MP potions in a while, Ginsengs are not a whole lot more expensive than Honsters (per HP) but give you 40% MP regen. With ~1400 mp on my Paladin I never run out of MP.

Well when i train at Gallops/himes/skele/TT i use Ginseng and my mp doesn't often go to 0 or below 100 because ginseng would heal both hp and mp as well i only bring 100 mana exiliers for gallops because gallops themselves drop mana pills so it balances out sort of. so imo it depends on where you train and if the monster drops and types of pots

I use Ginseng Roots. Since you're a warrior, you'll probably take a lot of touch damage, which means you'll be using the potions quite often, which means with the Ginseng Roots, you'll have plenty of mp to go around. ...at least that's how I am at Oblivion 4.
