How to gain Mana quickly?
As some of you might or might not know, killing enemy characters gives you Mana.
Mana is something you need to create characters, or reincarnate them, usually making them into facilities while you're at it.
One problem: when your character rises levels, the Mana required to make them into a facility increases, making it the proverbially carrot-in front-of-the-horse's-nose, that can't be reached.
In which case, there must be a way to earn Mana quicker than your character levels up.
So, that is my question: how can you acquire Mana quickly?
I've tried in-fighting, e.g., the character I want to earn my Mana beat up on my own allies, but the most Mana I earn is about 100, and that's for killing one of my own LV.86 Merchants!

Re: How to gain Mana quickly?
It's been a while since I've played, so my memory is a little fuzzy.
One trick is to reincarnate your character into a carrot demon or one of those robed one-eyed things. Each of them has a 10% Mana bonus in their lowest form. This means that they get 10% (or 20% or 30%) more mana from enemies. If you fiddle with the order of the character bonuses before reincarnation you can pass the ability on. This will help greatly in creating a new facility.
Also your (remaining) mana transfers after reincarnation. Simply reincarnate your character and when they reach a level where you can afford to make a facility then do it.
Lastly, remember that its the character that receives the killing blow that gains the mana, so make sure the character who will make the wish is finish off the enemies. Overpowered spells or powerful weapons are the way to go for this.

Re: How to gain Mana quickly?
There's a trick on 3-4 that can net you a -ton- of mana. You'll need 4 mimics, each equipped with boxes. I advise giving them each a strong orb and some Cowboy Hats (strongest buyable hat) to increase their RES so they don't kill eachother off. The orb will also give them the TP they need.
Each box attack boost mana gained (allies) or mana produced (enemies) by a certain amount. The first gives +20%, the second gives +30%, and the third gives +40%. What you want to do is pull out the character that you want to give the mana to and three of your highest level facilities (or characters if you're fine with ally kills and they're stronger than your facilities) and have the mimics attack Zetta. This will distribute the +mana bonus to everything on the map. The maximum bonus is 5000%, which is 710% on the character gaining and the objects producing, meaning you'll need +610%. This can by done by 31 level 1 box skills, 21 level 2 box skills, or 16 level 3 box skills. When you're done, have the character kill off the facilities (or allies if you chose that option) and the enemy facility.
This should produce plenty of mana very easily and when you get a strong enough character to survive the facility creation process, you can create stronger and stronger facilities (Huts are the cheapest) that will produce more and more mana as needed with no drawbacks.

Re: How to gain Mana quickly?
If you have 3 level 9999 Huts doing the trick then all your mana problems will go away. It caps at 9999999, iirc.

Re: How to gain Mana quickly?
I tend to find far more than I need from random bonus lists. You could try running random dungeons and stealing them from enemies/the environment if there aren't any on the bonus gauges.
