Default How good is a Manastone really?

Im a 15 Druid at the moment, and seems like one use of the manastone gives me around 3-4% mana but takes like 10-15% hp. I cant really see why this item is worth so much / so many people want it. I mean I know it doesn't drop anymore but, how good of an item is it really when the ratio's are so bad? I mean you spend more time and mana healing yourself from one use of the manastone that you end up with even less mana from before you even used it.

Is there ever a point where my heal will heal me for more hp then the hp cost of using the mana stone?

Yes, if you consider chloroplast + skin like nature heal spells. On the other hand, think about what a cleric with 2400 hit points can do with a manastone and complete healing.

Manastone is not a twink item.

This ^^

Even solo a cleric with a terror forged mask and a manastone is a regen machine. Call of bones + tap to 3%, CH.

Get to level 34 as quickly as you can, borrow the stone, cast Regeneration on yourself, and start quading.

Planar raids it's useless. However at the end game (either farming, or doing dragons) it's a lifesaver for a lot of classes.

Can't tell you how many times I'm quadding Seafurry's, run out my mana bar, and wish I had a manastone to get some mana back to finish them off.

They don't work in the planes anymore, only normal zones.

They aren't that good unless your grouped with buffers or you're a druid with regen or a cleric with high hp (takes 1200 hp to regain the mana casted from CH, all xtra hp after that is pure gold) but they are unique and one of a kind [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's also a great PL tool for casters if you can heal them. Wizards would be a good example.

In Kunark era, manastones are best for druids. Run your quad(s) until you're oom, port to old world, regen and stone, gate back to your camp, repeat.
