To answer an earlier question, it is well-known that wisdom past 200 returns far too much mana. It should be more like 1 mana per point past 200. If that were ever altered on P99 to more closely follow classic behavior it would probably weight the starting statistic balance more in favor of stamina, at least for long-term players. That may or may not ever happen--obviously, it hasn't in ~13 years--so all we can do is give advice for P99 as it is, rather than as it may one day become.
On a side note, the regular traditional P1999 UI that shows mana values should still be present in the patch downloads. It's there in the v55 I have, at least. It's called "default" while the translucent classic-style UI is called "velious."
