Not that I had used them all on the Revenents, but still...

Weaken Enemies is useful.
Today, I've been trying it in combination with the 'Everlasting' Hammer, the spell weaken the enemies AC and Crushing resistances which helps.
Also, I managed to kill about 6 or so Revenants in the Crypt (I had an old save from that point) thanks to the Mace of Divinity that destroyed them.
You should be able to use the Mace against many of the toughest foes, if you can survive long enough then the Mace should destroy them and you still get the experience for it too.

Uh, I meant I preferred the Lionheart system. There's also vaguely similar systems in Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights, so I'm used to something like Lionheart over Morrowind. Besides, some of the skills seemed to take forever to increase in Morrowind (unless paid for) .

I think it depends on how tough the enemy is and what kind of location it is. Revenants probably drop 10 times the mana a zombie does.

Personally I just stick to the Everlasting missiles and just improve the bow itself. Composite bows increase damage as do the bows a step above that. Find Carnage bows for an acid damage bonus on top of that. The game will start will start to switch over more to archers and they generally have lots of arrows to spare.

So far, I haven't found anything 'of the Demokin. Are there such items, do you know?

I vaguely remember finding a Demokin item, maybe a helm. But it would be rare and it was in none of my savegame files (I think I deleted the ones from when I completed the game ).
