But the mana and stamina options intrigue me. By triggering the gland, it will start to consume the specified resource to stimulate the acid gland and increase acid production.

Especially when I consider that I gain increased regeneration from the Vestibule.

To keep things simple I'll take the option to double down on those upgrades at +10 and reinforce them at +15, which should give some potent effects.
