Eardweller cannot restore mana for a wf.
After the amp charge goes away - you get a disease (which wf are immune to), when that ends it puts larva in your inventory. Eat these, and you get a bit of mana restore.

It's about 60 mana per larva over a minute, so if you have enough patience, you can get up to 180 mana.

Won't work on a WF or a PM in undead form. When the 1 minute spell fury is up, you're diseased for 5 minutes. If you let that disease run it's course, you get 3 tasty larva that you can eat to regen SP. Since both WF and PMs in form are immune to disease, they don't get the larva.

Also, the larva have a 1 hour timer before they expire. They can be traded, but cannot auctioned or put in the bank. They also vanish when you log out.

Being a WF pretty much precludes you from being able to get the SP regeneration. You need to activate the slug and leave in in your ear until the effect expires. You'll then get a disease that lasts 5 minutes and damages all of your stats. After 5 minutes 3 larvae are created in your backpack that slowly regen SP for you.

Since you're WF and can't get diseased, you can't do this. Being an undead WF makes it doubly impossible.

Right. After you activate an Eardweller on a fleshie without disease immunity, you'll get the 1 minute of spell boost. After that, you get a 5 minute long disease with massive stat damage to all stats. When that's over, you get three Larvae in your inventory.

A screenshot of them is here (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?p=3333608&highlight=xachosian+larva#post3333608).

Note that the larvae are tradeable, but only last for 1 hour after creation. They cannot be created or used by Warforged. They return a grand total of 57 SP over the 2 minutes they are active, so while it's not a lot, it's still an extra spell in a long quest.
