jacen, take it from me, a mage.i couldnt b happier with my mage. i have mana shield which is a spell u will get later which absorbs damage, so we actually are alright at tanking. also, i dont know if im just awesome at setting my guy up, by it takes me 3 fireballs and a fire blast and i kill something 2 lvls above me (non-elite) i only have one thing that annoys me, since mage does the most damage, we often get the aggro, so be ready with frost nova or mana shield

and gratz outlawmessage me for help any of u, im HizaraWhat talent build are you? Well, it really depends I guess....Fire/Arcane is more soloing whereas Frost/Arcane is better for Raids in my opinion. Oh, and mage is 2nd in DPS. The title would have to go to rogues....
