I'd answer them right now, except that I was planning to do a lengthier post on leveling as a fire mage and I think that would be more helpful for a lot more people. So stay tuned. I've got answers to all your questions. It's actually pretty easy. You know, I've always been scared of playing as a fire mage. But now I've realized it's the most straightforward spec of the three.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-49562994075425494552010-11-08T10:40:57.465-06:002010-11-08T10:40:57.465-06:00Awesome! I started a mage a bit ago, up to level 4...Awesome! I started a mage a bit ago, up to level 46 now except I've been frost. Sooo I have questions!<br /><br />1. As fire, how has survivability and mana efficiency been while leveling? I also have the full set of heirlooms and a good rotation of blues from dungeon finder rewards. <br /><br />2. When did you stop using pyroblast as an opener and only use it during hot streaks procs? Or not? Do you still throw out a pyroblast with its cast time here and there? <br /><br />3. When in a instance, are you AOEing a lot, or for now is it still safer/more efficient to just stay single target killer?<br /><br />That may be a lot to go through, so you don't really have to answer all that. I'm ultimately going to buy dual spec and try fire on my own anyway, I suppose for now I'm too chicken to leave the safety of frost quite yet.Lugnut Daffodilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11150795068174932978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-89781699735752314772010-11-08T02:41:57.326-06:002010-11-08T02:41:57.326-06:00Blizzard realized that (so far) leveling 1->80 ...Blizzard realized that (so far) leveling 1->80 is way too easy, in terms of damage output. Some classes play in god-mode both in PvE and PvP environments. 1000 dps at this level is clearly not intended, but still... a lot of fun :)Echonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-25374714078184143592010-11-07T17:46:40.263-06:002010-11-07T17:46:40.263-06:00@Shannara apparently I'm so leet that not many...@Shannara apparently I'm so leet that not many can match me at my level :) But seriously, I guess some people are still in the learning phase or maybe they don't try enough. There shouldn't be any reason why other classes shouldn't match mages.<br /><br />@Echo well gee thanks for spoiling it for me :) If anyone needs to have their damage nerfed, it's tanks. I find it extremely weird that as pure DPS I have to compete not with other DPS, but with the tank. Even as an awesome fire mage I am struggling to stay ahead of the tank in terms of damage.Darth Solohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110818057322485070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-72560640697220112992010-11-07T17:24:01.914-06:002010-11-07T17:24:01.914-06:00enjoy it while you can, but still impressive.enjoy it while you can, but still impressive.Liamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569241273739354886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3529183485378908367.post-16965311434571573842010-11-07T15:45:06.418-06:002010-11-07T15:45:06.418-06:00This is why Blizz impmlemented a HUGE nerf for eve...This is why Blizz impmlemented a HUGE nerf for every class (some more, some less) while leveling 1->80.
