    Lightbulb Help with LVL 20 Mage

    Hey PL Forums!

    Im new to forums and PVP so cut me a little slack if I do/say something wrong. But please do criticise me! It helps =D
    I wanted some help with a lvl 20 str mage. I have read the guides, and their comments and tried a few different builds but I'd still like some help.

    Before you post comments about how tank mages are noob, or require no skill, let me say something: I KNOW!
    I agree it requires less or practically no skill and I have been called noob many times, but I simply dont care. Its fun.
    Even the long and tedious fights are interesting for me. SO please refrain from comments like this.

    Now onto the matter at hand:

    GEAR and STATS
    62 Str then rest Int

    I currently own the L20 Bear 4-Piece Plat Pack, L20 Rhino 3-Piece Plat Pack, Alchemists L5, Purp Toy L20 and the Fine crystal ring of life L10 (3 m/s one)
    I am planning to buy a Purp Paw L20 as well

    BUILD
    The build I am currently using is:
    6 Light
    6 Heal
    4 Buff
    1 Fire
    1 Frostbite
    1 Ice Storm

    I like this build, but I get called noob all the time because I am a tank mage, with 6 heal and I kite.
    I am open to trial new builds so please tell me some good builds XD

    COMBOS
    Since I tank mage, I try to play the mana game. Conserve mana and health till buff runs out and then use Hammer to destroy.
    I guess thats the crux of my style. I would really appreciate some advice on my combos, what I can change and what Im doing okay.

    Rhinos - Using sword, I tank damage while keeping them away from me use fire/ices. I only use light sparingly to waste their mana. As soon as they run out, I pull out hammer and go ham on them.
    Birds - I use sword so I can tank their nukes and ice to make sure they dont kite. When buffed I generally hold back on heal i.e. when they root I dont heal out of it. I use frost light fire ice and heal after their nuke.
    Bears - Under 18, I just stay up close and just use sweet combo: ice fire light frost heal. If they talon, I generally use hammer, and kite a little when low. If forg then sword.
    Bears - 18 and above I have some troubles with. My strat is just tank and kite. I need help with this.
    Fox - Same as bear 18 and above. I try to kite as much as possible to avoid their dash and nuke. They have high dodge, and coupled with the tank mages low hit, it becomes hard.
    Mage (Dex/Int) - Using sword, I tank damage while conserving mana i.e. use your skills less. As soon as they run out, I pull out hammer and go ham on them.
    Mage (Str/Int) - These are long fights. Normally I aim to do the same, tank damage and let them waste their mana. But I get bored sometimes. Id like help with these as well.


    SOOO this is what my tank mage is.
    This thread has turned into a half guide I guess, with builds and strats and whatnot. But I mainly tell these so that the lovely forumers can help me out with ease.

    Thanks in advance to those that do reply and assist me. It is very much appreciated.
