On the General Vezax fight, nearly all ways of restoring mana are useless.

Mana gems don't work either. There is a way to get mana back in the
mechanics of the fight, but even that stops at 30% health (or earlier if
you're in hard mode). Once your mana hits zero then, it's wand time. *
and someone said wands don't work. Time to stand back and let the
melee boys have fun. Well I guess I could just try and stab him with
my little dagger.
Wands definately do work. We always tell the casters to just wand until
there's a shadow patch on the floor, and to only cast when they're standing
in one. (The shadow patch both increases your damage and reduces your mana
cost signifigantly, so it makes no sense to cast a spell if you're not in
one.)
Hunters can regen mana with Aspect of the Viper, and Ret Paladins have a
method as well. There's one more class that has a mana regen mechanic, but
I forget which it is.
