[GrizzlyKingB]

Been leveling magery casting mana drain on a ettin, at 57.4 and i've been constantly stuck at this number for a full day of afking, i understand it goes slowly but i was told that wasn't until 85 and higher for this skill anyone have any idea of what's going on?

Hello, welcome! I would try switching to Invisibility to see if you gain. Are you in a dungeon? You'll get better gains there

If you aren't on the UOF Discord, I would suggest joining that. You'll get much faster answers there, forums aren't checked as often.

First, it's better to cast Mana Drain on yourself, for resist gains while you level.
Second, do it in a dungeon. There are plenty of safe spots to do so.
Third, make sure you have available skill points, arrows pointing in the correct direction, etc.
Mana drain can take you into the low 60s quite easy. I just leveled another mage yesterday, took about 4 hours total to go from 50 to GM. You have some other sort of issue to take care of, such as not having available skill points etc.
