Some lines only for pve
I have only played to 76 but I am sure that the basic mechanics don't suddenly change at 77

Only regarding pve there is no reason to do anything different than mage and bird
The other classes just slow down groups compared to mage bird groups

For me the difference is that a mage is more self sufficient and a bird is more built for a purpose

In pve nature strike is the key combo to clear maps and with a mage you can react to the birds in the group
As bird you need to hope that the mage knows when to put lightning

In 95 % of the time I am perfectly happy being mage only at bosses with shields I would rather have a bird

So pick either one you're fine
