how on earth do you get this?
i want to enchant an amulet with a restore magicka attribute on self, but i can't find a way to do it? or maybe create a spell with the effect?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you're out of luck on this, short of a mod. There's no Restore Magicka spell in the game, probably because there's no way to implement it in a way that makes sense. Either it restores more magicka than it costs, in which case you've effectively got an infinite free magicka supply, or it costs more than it restores, in which case it's pointless. A Restore Magicka enchantment would make sense, but the game mechanics only allow you to enchant something with a spell effect you already know.

thats what i was thinking. but it says there is actually a spell that can be created for restore magicka, if you look in the instruction Manuel.

Manuals for PC games tend to lie.

You could try enchanting something with adsorb magicka on self.

Or summon some daedra and adsorb its magicka.

Or, if you have alchemy, just make some potions. Restore Magicka potions can be made with fairly cheap ingredients (a little expensive, if you buy them, but not as expensive as some ingredients) Comberry is cheap, and can often be found on Comberry bushes scattered around some areas in the game. If you purchase it, I think it costs like 1 gp. The second ingredient will be more expensive, but if you use Frost Salts as the second ingredient, and have decent Mercantile skill, you can get the price down below 50gp. If you have Bloodmoon, you can also go harvest Belladonna Berries, and the potions become 'free' (although, Belladonna plants are kind of few and far between, so getting them does become a little bit of an exercise).

Apologizes to everyone for not getting back to this thread faster, and for having to bump a dead thread.
Well, since I'm currently collecting Comberries, that's not a solution.
How do I find the absorb Magicka spell? I've never come across it. Should I set it for constant effect on self, just a long time, or just a single second?

For the absorb magicka spell you have to target another creature

Absorb Magicka is not available in the game to buy, although if you are on pc you can add it with the console.

If you are the Atronach sign then simply attacking a creature that casts magic at you (like a scrib) means you will absorb it, or praying at a shrine gives a similar result.

So those are the only ways? I could have sworn there was maybe an amulet with absorb magicka...
Any merchant that has restocking comberries or frost salts? that way I wouldn't actually be using any of my own.

Or rather, if I had the Mace of Molag Bal (sp?) in my inventory, couldn't I enchant an item using it's effect if i had a strong enough soul gem?

No, enchanted items don't contribute to your known spell effects.

That's why conjurer is a good skill to have if you are of the Atronach BS. Summoning creatures that cast spells at you are a great way
to regain Magicka. To bad you can't summon an Ash Slave or Ash Ghoul, they really pump out the Magicka spells.

I have a mod put away somewhere that gives you a small recovering amount of Magicka. I believe it's called Magic Regeneration.
There is also another mod called Leveled Magic that levels your Magicka in parallel to your health and fatigue levels which can
run safely together. I'm currently using GCD and haven't tested these together, so I choose not to run those two Magicka mods.
But they did work beautifully on the vanilla level engine.

Forgive me for being an uneducated xbox MW player, but since there is a spell effect for restore magika (potions do it) there is no way to do this in PC?

I mean, I realize that a restore magika spell (that costs magika) isn't gonna be useful... but if you learn the spell then you could enchant an item to do it. It seems like there should be a spell to do this, even if it doesn't do anything as a spell. I mean, it would be like the weakness to disease on other spell...

-EDIT- for spelling

You could probably do it using the construction set on PC

Unfortunately, that spell doesn't exist in game, and i've tried getting a spellmaker right after drinking the potion- they still don't have it. So in short, that wouldn't work.

I remember seeing someone post up a glitch that let you have unlimited/ a large pool of magicka, even on vanilla xbox.
Anyone recall this glitch, or how to perform it?

I can tell you how to restore your fatigue, health, and magika at any time if you need. You can even set this to continually restore those stats (until you enter any of your character menus), so you could set up casting spells over and over without having to rest/drink a potion.

-SPOILER-

go to your skills/stats menu and put the highlighted bar (you know, the one you can move up and down and it shows how much progress you have in your skills), put that bar on health,fatigue, or magika.

press and hold the -A- button
for health (with health highlighted) and -A- button held down, press black,white,black,black,black
for fatigue (with fatigue highlighted) and -A- button held down, press black,white,black,black,white
for magika (with magika highlighted) and -A- button held down, press white,black,black,white,black

Now, the bar should start going up while you hold the -A- button. If you then press the -B- button (to exit your menus) while the bar is going up, then it will CONTINUOUSLY go up until the next time you open your menu. This means that you can continuously heal, restore magika, or restore fatigue with this trick.

ps, there is also the "soultrap glitch" that makes it so you can cast spells that never end and it can be done on xbox AFAIK, but I just learned about it yesterday and I've never tried it. Keep in mind that there ARE some spells you do NOT want permanent. If you are interested google "morrowind soultrap glitch", and it will tell you the warnings to consider in the description

The wiki will explain how you can create a spell that restores your magicka by draining your intelligence. You can also do this by enchanting an item, of course.

The alchemist in Balmora restocks Frost Salts. Ajira in the Mage's Guld restocks Comberries. If you increase their supply first, it makes things easier (see wiki for how to do this if you do not already know).

Are you shure you are not mistaking the fortify magika instead? Just like health going over what you have, you fortify your magika than what you have. Is that what you are thinking of? Or like me, playing too much Oblivion and get confused between the two? LOL.

@Davor:

No, you use Drain Intelligence to drop your intelligence to zero (actually negative is required, not just zero). When the drain expires, your magicka pool is restored to full.
