My mage wears wicked assault helm and armor and boulder barrel brutality gun but with arcane ring and planar pendant (both blings belong to my rogue) he can have over 700 dmg petless, 4500 hp and 1800 armor. In your case, if you haven't got a pendant yet or working toward getting one, get mythic gun and mythic belt. Getting over 4k hp and 1600 armor (the more the better) is crucial if you want your arena run to be more potentially profitable instead of an ankh sink. So is timing your shield. Pets...did I say my mage is low budget? His main Arena pet is a Blinky which on top of the armor debuff passive can be a real lifesaver of you time his AA right. But Arena is all about fast boss kill, so crit giving pets like Maridos (and Gyrm) help.
