"Mages are seen as the top of the ranged DPS totem pole, and this is mostly correct, mages can dish out some insane damage while with talents not gaining to much threat. They are also used in taking care of large groups of non-elites. Crowd Control - Mages love Polymorphing Stuff, little sheep. Polymorph is able to mez a humanoid or beast for a decent amount of time, this is very useful for reducing the amount of mobs you fight. wow powerleveling One thing to remember, you are in a group, you are not soloing, so you are not trying to do as much damage as possible. Ranged DPS - First thing you should do is find out how much damage you can do without getting threat, if you are partying with a warrior you party with alot you usually know this. Once you find this out you can get a feel for what spells to use and how often. wow honor Aslo, remember to target the mob the MT is tanking, you can do this by targeting the tank and pressing the ""F"" key, this will swicth to the mob the tank is targeting. Frostbolt: This is probably one of the better spells to use in a group. It does good damage and is slows down the enemy, so that if someone gets hate then it will take longer for the mob to get to the enemy. Also Note that most often Fire specced Mages will use Scorch and Arcane Missiles. cheap wow gold If frostbolt doesn't get you hate, you can throw in some of your more powerful spells in there, Fireball is a good spell that deals a decent amount of damage. You can throw in some of your fancy ICs if you want. Arcane Missle Is the damaging spell you will be using in groups with 10 or more people, the reason is that Arcane missle adds no debuffs to the precious 8 debuff limit, and you will still be doing decent damage.
If you manage to get hate, which I am sure you will when you test the tanking abilities, make sure you get right next to the tank, DO NOT RUN AROUND. wow honor the tank does not have a ranged taunt, so get next to him. Also times that you are going to AoE some mobs, make sure you bring them to the tank, and make use you can get a shield from the priest. Lastly, Mages can make food and water that they can give to the group. This will get your groups appreciation and also lessen the down time between fights. " .
