Just curious at what rank most of you stop training in Spirit Mana Control, and what - if any - benefits are derived from training beyond that point. I think I may already have exceeded it.

Primarily, assuming you have more ranks in SMC and any other mana control skill (elemental or mental), then for every 10 ranks in SMC you have you will gain an additional 1 mana back on each mana pulse.

SMC also factors into avoiding spell burst effects and runestave defense (although there are likely cheaper ways to accomplish these goals).

Some additional spell benefits can be found on Krakiipedia at http://www.krakiipedia.org/wiki/Spirit_Mana_Control

I find 20 ranks of SMC more than sufficient to share mana, and it provides 2 mana extra per pulse. The only reasons to go beyond that, in my opinion, are to be able to use 620 on padded armors. I think it's 55 ranks to do heavy padding.
