Easier to get 1 or 5 pearls and 1 or 5 poison vials and cast Thicken Mana or Mass Thicken Mana respectively. It's an level 11 enchanter spell. Better than hunting in a level 70 zone

Need to get alot of this to make wus armor and was wondering if this is a regularly sold item in the bazzar or do I have to get chummy with an enchanter in order to get it?

At level 12 the spell Thicken Mana was not an super easy thing to obtain but with a much higher level friend who could help me I was able to go to the brownie village (Lesser Faydark) cloaked in wolf form, I cast alliance on all the brownies and brownie guards, walked up and bought the spell from a vendor on the left back side of the village. I instantly gated out before my luck ran out with the brownies. I was also careful not to kill any brownies before that in order not to lose faction with them. Now with a pearl and a posion vial i am able to make them by casting a spell. I heard they sell for 10-30 PP. If you need any to make Wu's Fighting Guantlets or Wu's Fighting Armour let me know. If you have anyquestions send me a tell or an email.

You can craft this with Poisonmaking?!? I doubt it. This is made by casting a spell
#REDACTED, Posted: Sep 07 2002 at 12:47 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I have found as an enchanter and holding one boosts mana rebuild and the more you hold the more the boost increases I hold a stack when medding and takes under a min to rebuild all my mana.

OK, that sounds interesting but lets look at some of the details on mana regeneration.
Mana regeneration is a hot topic when it comes to items held and items worn, not to mention that people donate for breze/clarity/clarity2/KEI all the time in order to get a higher mana regen rate. Verant has been EXTREEMLY cautious when dealing with mana regeneration items. Bards and enchanters are specifically /shout'd for in zones, for the sole purpose of providing increased mana regen for a group. In my experience of almost 3 years EQ, that is ONE of the main reasons bards and chanters are sought after.
If we take the famous/infamous Manastone for example; Verant decided that it was too powerful to be allowed in Kunark/Velious/Luclin/Planes, and limited it to use on "old world zones", and specifically EXCLUDED the re-vamped Cazic Thule even though it is in an old-world zone (Ferroot). This was because were cautious of balancing casters by limiting their mana regen capabilities and instead of just 'Nerfing' the manastone down to say +1 mana per tick, they limited its usefullness by limiting where you can use it.
Now, lets look at your example of having Vial of viscuous mana. If every lvl 12 enchanter, (lvl 12 thicken mana) could create portable mana-regeneration items for people to carry around don't you think that Verant would be highly interested in removing that from the game? Plus, if you look at the description of the item, it doesn't say anything about increased mana regeneration rate.
There used to be, and sometimes still happens, where people would say that if you carried a plains pebble around you would have a reduced rate of consumption of water. This is one of those 'urban-ledgends' so to speak because MANY people have proved over and over again that this is not true but people still wish it were true and so still carry on the mistake.
I say this example because I think that you want to believe that carrying around the vials makes a difference, and it would be nice if they did, and maybe it seemed that you got full mana faster, BUT in reality you did not.
It is kind of fun finding out new things, but in this case your theory does not pan out.
Ask a lvl 60 enchanter to cast a KEI for you some time. Most times they would like a donation of 100p, but occasionally guilds set up 'hospitality' groups to help out youngsters for the fun of it and to just be helpful. You will enjoy a nice increase in your mana regen rate and it will last a pretty long time. This is arguably the best mana regen boost that you will find in EQ.
Have fun and good luck on getting your next lvl.
