Any point to a Mage alt if you already have a necro?

Necros, overall are the most powerful solo class in the game. Single target, cc, survivability, mana efficiency. Don't care what anyone thinks about any other class, nothing comes even remotely close to a necro's ability to handle so many types of situations

Ummmmmmm Enchanter bro. My 60 Enchanter puts my 60 Necro to freaking shame.

Necros are still awesome though.

It's rechargable

rechargeable fd ring, probably one of the best shaman items EVER period.

Mage's have FD ability and it's more useful....it's called Call of the Hero.

To bad they can't cast it on themselves, and if they could it wouldn't do anything. it would be like gating on your bind spot...

If you want it just because its another pet class then sure, but otherwise there isn't much of a benefit. Mages are fun and provide nice benefits to raids with their summoned items and coth, but that's about as far as it goes.

The crazy thing about shamans is that not only are they pretty OP at 60 just with just normal spells, they also get:

JBB, the best damage clicky in the game
Tash via Jsticks
Rune via Bladestopper
Charm via Strings
FD via the Sky Ring

I think a really tricked out shaman is simply the most powerful class in the game. Enchanters are a close second since hey, those are our abilities [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

OP: I think you will find a Mage a little bit boring/frustrating after a necro. I have one and I am finding him to be so so so fragile. A full pack of wooly spider silk nets helps a lot though! And I'm looking forward to experimenting with coh.

But enchanters don't get the tankability of plate/chain nor the 2nd best healing in the game (torpor). Shaman and monk really are the prodigy classes of classic EQ, with enchanters a close second.
