Lol okay so you show up naked:
Step 1) summon max level pet
Step 2) sow yourself and pet
Step 3) haste pet
Step 4) locate giant lizard man
Step 5) https://wiki.project1999.com/Insidious_Fever
**above spell has a one sec cast time and debuff + 4 counters**
Step 6) send in dog
Step 7) run around and reapply aggro kiting, assuming dog does 20 dps dead in 12 minutes risk free.

Now was that so hard? And really you could have saved yourself the trouble of writing all that and instead just said "use a low mana spell to hold aggro while pet kiting", but I appreciate the details anyway :)

You also have nearly an impossible epic to complete due to how everyone wants to sell a key piece of the Magician epic (Earth Staff) for like 1 million plat. Necros get a Duckstick that costs around 200k total if you don't join a raiding guild / farm plat.

Mage pets are still quite a bit stronger than Necro pets, but that's about all they have going aside from nukes and summoning items. If you want to root something, you need to have an earth pet or root nets.
Btw.. What is that skeleton head on the end of the necro epic supposed to be? From what monster? All i can think of is Sarnak?

A duck

Phinny water staff and a 60 water pet is a nice consolation prize if you can't get the epic. Crazy damage, especially if pet is not tanking and can backstab. Plus even as a 60 Mage you hardly need any gear so you could literally fill two bags full of root nets rather than buy marginal gear upgrades. Necros are still better overall but there's something to be said for the brute Force DPS of the Mage.

This is pretty much the goal for most Mages, I think.

Really torn on the Mage vs Necro camp though.
Love Mage as a class, but love the toolkit of the Necro.
Arrrgh.

Mage to 50 before Kunark then necro!

$0.02

Multiple necros in a group or raid: their DoTs don't stack. Multiple mages: All their pets and nukes stack.

Mage epic is a beast. Maybe one of the most OP epics in the game. My mage is only 38 or so but I find a lot of his summons are frequently useful to myself and others.

I play both and they're both fun.
