A friend and I are going warrior shaman so can we max money making professions like alchemy and enchanting while we farm dungeons non stop and reserve boe/crusader orbs to get our epic mounts. There will be no pvp ranks for a couple months so I will start leaving a mage on the side so that when pvp is launched I can get that amazing classic mage pvp scene going ;p My thoughts are money will be better from doing the above stated than aoe farming at the start because of lack of gear and crazy high pops. Aoe grinding for money outside of instances will be out of the question.

I played a frost mage from launch until wotlk exclusively. Didn't even have an alt. The class was by far my favorite and pvp was a lot of fun but also took a lot of skill. I would do things like spam blizzard with the slow at choke points in alteric Valley so everyone would have to walk through it slowly taking damage while my team took them out. There were so many fun things you could do with that class. Like any class though, I had my moments sheeping and winning 2 v 1 and stuff but I also got destroyed and beat quickly. Just play what you like because in the end you will win some and lose some no matter what class you pick. I'm not going to play mage this time around.

Mage is the best class, scoring top 3 for almost any task + the amount of freedom mage gives you just makes it more entertaining. However I think strongest class (it's close) is priest with his all around kit and dispell. You have to be healer or constantly switch specs tho :(. The last potentially best class is warrior, mainly because it's best pick for pve.

most time with all clothies you will have busy work, providing them with something and another thing people forget to mention is how much you use wands to conserve your mana to make it last longer so you are not stuck drinking constantly. for example a mages thing they provide is food and water, you will be asked to do this a lot. a warlocks busy work lies in the soulshard farming since you use it for a lot of things, need to get a pet out, soulshard, need to summon someone? soulshard, want to use a specific spell? soulshard. craft a healthstone? soulshard, craft a soulstone? soulshard. a priests busy work is buffing mainly as you will be asked to do this in every party you get and it will deplete your mana constantly forcing you to take extra mana breaks. if you are ok with these things or you are actually thinking somehow that these are a plus for playing those characters then by all means go for it. all clothies are really strong and should not be underestimated and they can be a lot of fun if you are willing to overlook these things for the more fun part of their kit.

Hey Punkrat good video! I just wanted to mention something that most people don't think about when it comes to mage. and that's arcane damage. There's a trinket from ZG from the Edge of Madness bosses that give mages the Hazza'rah's Charm of Magic an interesting trinket that has an on Use: Increases the critical hit chance of your Arcane spells by 5%, and increases the critical hit damage of your Arcane spells by 50% for 20 sec. (cooldown 3 min) This item is amazing to swap on for any trash that takes extra damage from arcane. Take the trash in BWL and Chromaggus etc. Or even just to aoe with arcane explosion. This trinket is highly underrated and is worth the pick up imo. Also I appreciate you using my footage in your videos, but could you do a channel shout out maybe ;)

In a private server I played on, you could infinite stack Ignite for an infinite amount of time. So a single mage in a guild would spec for maximum spell damage with gear like the spd necklace from Rag in MC and after 5 stacks of scorch would do a pyro crit on the boss. If the crit is large enough then the other mages keep scorching/fireballing to keep the ignite up. The ignite will then continue to roll increasing in damage with every tick. If your tank is good enough, you can even roll to to 50 stacks or so. Then the ignite mage will use a threat clear pot to prevent a wipe and repeat. Crazy speed naxx kills.

You never spec Frostbite for an aoe specc, because it splits the group of mobs you wanna kite-aoe-kill ;) You also have more than 2 shields for damage: frost barrier=all dmg, mana shield=physical damage and frost/fire ward. Poping "all trinkets" only works in certain patches. A rolling ignite is in most cases a problem to thread, which needs good RL/mages to drop the ignite fast, which ends into boring casting spells others speel schools or YOUR ignite gets rolled by another mage and YOU pull the aggro. Aggro in PvE wasn't really mentioned in general, which in particular often leads to deaths at trash mobs! There is also a big difference between your PvE specc and what you can do with it in PvP ;)

Mages are OP. They were OP in Vanilla and now with the new engine they are even more OP. Evocation is also pretty useful. And in pvp a mage can take like 1, 2 ticks of evo to turn the battle.

Play mage if you wanna feel like a DBZ character. When you sheep / root someone, then you pop off all your spellpower trinkets, and start charting that frostbolt. Man... what a feeling. Instant transmission away from players. Literally will yourself or others around the world in seconds. Never die from fall damage. Never go hungry or thirsty. Blow up 30+ mobs at a time. Being a higher being above meager quests. Yeah man. - Being a water cooler for raiders / randos. Constant begging of portals. Dying to ambush / backstab. No thanks.

Really enjoyed your video about the mage. My wife and I have been enjoying your videos. We are players originally from burning Crusade. Mage was the first class for each of us. I’ve always only played at mage. You can’t spell damage without spelling mage. daMAGE.

@@markxv2267 Not if they are good they don't. Take Engineering, get some fast boots and other trinkets, close the distance with the Hunter - enough to Deathcoil and dot him and then continue on to his dead zone. End of story. If you run a SL build you have tons of life, damage absorption and a sacrifice shield (with your Voidwalker) - should be able to pull it off.

im not sure what i want to go... mage, rogue, hunter, shaman if i´ll go horde, then probably shaman. if i don´t want hard levelling, then hunter, and then there is mage and rogue, rogue has interesting playstyle and mage has a lot of utility and control

Both mages and rogues will be overpopulated. That said you will have much easier time to get into groups as a mage. And according to some poll there should also be quite a lot of shamans, but I imagine many people will reroll once they find out that enhancement is a lackluster spec and inability to raid as ele due to mana issues. I personally wouldn't play a mage, simply because I have very little interest in the class. But you have with as an option, I would suggest a mage or a hunter. Hunter are relatively easy to gear, but they don't scale that well.

Mages are literally given everything to them, broken AOE farming, free food and water, transportation to wherever they'd like to in the world, CC and blinks, mana restoration, fastest leveling to 60, shields, slows, gold farming by just standing in stormwind with your services and the option to boost anyone until you make a fortune and they still end up finding something to cry about in the forums lol

3:00 noooo way. If you don't need to drink, it's a win in terms of saving time. Imagine a perfectly played rogue/hunter vs perfectly played mage in a perfect theoretical world. The mage is the class that has A LIMIT inherently built into the game. You're own says "you can't keep going. rest." You will be drinking more often than a rogue/hunter will be eating.

Even if they were fucking everywhere and as weak as Balance druids I'd still play one in classic (at least at first) It's what I started out as, and remain loyal to to this day. I may take a break occasionally to play a warlock or druid, but over-all, mages are my favorite.
