So mage is for braindeads?

I’ve honestly never considered mage cause of the boredom of just spamming one spell in pve and being too op in pvp. Also now most mages spam dungeons to either farm gold boost is a sad existence less be honest. Are people that main mages angry and or miserable? People make fun of the low skill of a ret pala in pvpers but how is spamming frostbolt any different

Apparently, there are more than just main mages who are angry and or miserable.

Yup 10char

Well, I picked mage for Classic and many aspects of the game were super fun - solo elite quests, even split pulling an elite in Arathi, then doing profession related stuff - competing for devilsaur with hunters, getting demonic runes + felcloth, then farm large thorium veins with killing lots of undead on the way and what not. I didn’t done the ZF gold farm and alike, only profession related for the most part…

…but raiding was kind of boring, so I stopped playing pretty much. I have to play a healer or something more interactive. Played rsham before twice and now also looking at druid or hunter…

I leveled my mage to lvl15 before realizing it’s a stupidly overpowered class that’s way too simple to play. It’s like a ranged rogue that has way too many cooldowns that are short and if they fail you can just spam AOE it’s got every base covered and almost no drawbacks.

If you think frostbolts is the main ability for mages in pvp, i ask you then to do the alliance a favour and never lead a bg.

Every class is super easy in classic. WTF do you expect? Rocket science? Ppl have to unserstand that learning rotation for every class is just a matter of few hours. Mastering every class is another story and even mages are more than just spamming frostbolts (btw wait for p5).

Yez mu freidn, yez.

I play my Mage with a USB steering wheel.

Hes implying that the skill cap for mages is low.

It might be a low skill tier, but might be the highest skill ceiling out of all classes.

My first alt was a mage, i got bored of it pretty quick and only use it for gold farming.

Now I’m levelling a hunter and having a blast :smiley:

But nothing will beat paladin <3

My main is this Mage and I have no lvl 60 alts. I can confirm that I am a certified “braindead” and in fact have “vegetable” as gender on my driver’s license.

I can confirm it takes about 1 maybe 2 minutes to be a master PvP with a mage and 3 or 5 mins to farm AoE any dungeons solo.
If you spend like 15 minutes understanding a mage you can do both at the same time.
And yes, “most mages”, the class that represents around 20-30% of any realm, are boosting for gold. That’s totally true. The minority of mages left don’t do it cuz they are selling portals and waters spamming frost bolts in between.
I lie you not!
