think you got lore and gameplay elements mixed u, buddy

try again

also magicians can be "evil" too

[Penish]

5 coth bots and a real main would be even cooler

This guy never played a mage past 20, its pretty much balanced between mage and necro. Necros trade off any fast dps for utility. In group settings mages offer higher sustained dps and utility, while necros are a jack of all - master of none. six of one half dozen of other.

Mod Rods
Call of the Hero
Summoned Utility like staff of runes, ring of flight
Self Regen
Pet heals
best DS
2nd best nukes/pbae
eye of zomm
strongest pets
Malo

Don't forget it is a massive ball ache to even get some pet spell scrolls from 20+ in the release iteration of vanilla for magician!

[Trexller]

wtb words of duress

[starkind]

this isn't wow classes aren't supposed to be balanced there supposed to be thematically kewl and different

if u don't want a magician challenge play a necromancer or wizard )

I think not being able to root is the biggest horse poop for magicians and wizards, I mean even inept clerics and paladins can cast root. Just seem like a fairly uncomplicated spell for the masters of the arcane to develop....

[Gugg]

Magician (good)

- L34: Summon 100% 6 slot weight reduction bags (GIANT).

Shaman (evil)

- L5: Summon 100% 4 slot weight reduction bags (GIANT).
