The +mana cap being 50% of the int/wis total seems extremely logical. But this makes it even worse for P99ers if we are using the classic 12/1. That would give us ((12 * 200) + 55) * 5 = 1228 mana in +items and 3682 max in classic.

Also I have to say Rygar has taken the bug troll to an epic level.
