Fire Mage and PVP.

Recommended Posts

I have been playing Elemental Mage for a while now. However i Rarely see other mages who are the same.

My spec is either AP POM Pyro, or Pom Pyro + Blastwave.

Usually im excellent at taking outt the Flag carrier, or dominating in AB but im wondering if maybe i should respec with my guildes new Premade.

the question!

 

Firemage in PvP Premades : whats the gneral concensus? was wondering ifi a decent mage who is quite skilled in this matter could lend me some wisdom as im being told i should be the flag carrieer, and Fire isnt the spec for it.

 

Thhanks!

If you're planning on playing a lot in a serious premade then frost is the way to go for the control & survivability that it brings.  Mage is also one of the best flag carriers in game so if you're half decent then you will get a regular slot in a premade or asked to join others premades.

Pom/Pyro does have it place, but currently on ZK/Elysium Mage doesn't have the gear and trinkets to make it viable yet for nuking EFC's in 1 shot & you're generally very squishy so its no good for flag carrying.

I think when ZG/BWL comes it will be more viable for the 1 shot nuke kill on EFC with POM/Pyro.

It is quite a fun spec though, but you will be much more useful as frost atm.

Could you explain the 1 point into imp blizz? isnt that a waste unless itts 2 ?

And + damage Pircing Ice, cwhys it bad to go 3/3 ?

Its good for group fights or can be used on tunnel entrance when EFC comes out & in AB its amazing for blocking bridges/roads until help arrives at bases.

Its not bad 3/3 piercing ice, I just prefer having 3/3 permafrost over the extra 2% damage on frost I find it more useful.

Basically rank 1 blizz spam is good for flagrooms, team fights & tunnel entrance.  Its a nice slow for warriors to get on targets & is nice for blocking enemy groups chasing down your teams FC.

Yeah that looks good also, you can move points about to what suits your play style.  I like lowering the arcane resistance for sheeping personally myself.  No need for 3/3 in blizz I don't think, although its nice for warriors in team fights & blocking AB bridges.
