    Mages in PvP. Oh boy. People should understand that pvp doesn't mean 1v1

    If you want to 1v1 then level up a rogue/tank too and have fun of randomn crits.

    My main character it's a rogue. I leveled up a mage only for pvp/clashes. And i personally loving it. I can't wait to buy a elon gun to get in pvp asap.

    I'm from a guild where 99% of people are only pvping. How many times I've seen "mage join" ? Hundreds.

    Not only mages need a class balance. Every class needs some balance.


    Next thread should be " More mana for rogues "

    i agree, i have 60 more damage than the average expedition recurve rogue, they can one hit K.O me but it takes beetween 4-5 skill to kill one of them. Even if my stats show much more damage its not true.

    i have maxed gear (not mythic gun-arcane ring) but even like that fights against: warrior take forever.
    I think a 15%/20% damage buff for mages would be great for us and it wouldnt make us op.

    As you were saying every class is good on it's own area and for a mage that is crowd control, rogues are focussed on damaging a single target which in pvp is more beneficial then crowd control.

    Lol im certainly not trying to start a class war or any sort of flaming by any means.

    Recently devs have asked for input regarding class balance....specifically for "those squoooshy little blue dudes"

    I think, (i could be wrong) that mages were meant to be exactly this.....squishy low armor low hp blue dudes.....but also the creme de la creme when it comes to damage dealing.

    So what i am suggesting is that mages fulfill the role that i believe they were originally intended for.

    In all reality i believe this game was planned for a lvl 31 cap or 36 at the most......yet here we are at lvl 41.
    Devs have already stated that they want to overhaul the skills portion of this game, and also class balance before AL will ever receive another level cap.

    With that said, devs ask yourselves this.... (if you are reading this) Is this the original role intended for mages?

    Rogues actually do more dmg than what there stat screens show. (they do the most dmg of all classes)
    There aim shot radically increases dmg output.

    Giving mage more dmg is pointless cause then it will lead to class dis-balance.
    Lightning on a geared mage can take out about 30-50+% health out on a rogue with a cd of 3 seconds.
    Now arguing that aim has a 2 sec cd and does about 2* more dmg is pointless because we have a shield that gives 2 sec of invulnerability. When did rogues have that season x and the weapon is now completely outdated.

    Overall the only buff that mages need is a SLIGHT health buff of about 10%. I would prefer health since it helps our shield considerably.
    I play mage class as a main. I have some limited experience as a rogue and war.

    Now bring on the hate..

    Top geared mage stats, enjoy (No buffs of any kind)
    Top gear = need wisdoms in gun, ring, and ammy... also should use samael since most top geared people would use sam

    note: I did not "question" you

    Want more mana? Spec int. As far as mage's low armor value, there's not much we can do.

    Mage crowd control, when did we loose it in pvp? Did wind stun 4sec if improved or lightning 25% on charged ever worked in pvp or frost and all its improvments? Fireball imp stuns to and ts improved stuns.. could probably go on, but whats the point. Stun imunity make us no good at crowd control in pvp.
    So i ask as the OP. Sts. How is mages ment to be? Ive read what Arcane Legends page say about them, dont feel its right.. in advanced, thanks for listening to our imputs..

    Buffing a mage's dmg is a no go imo. Rogues may kill a lot but they dont have a shield nor an ability to aoe stun enemies. Ive seen a mage nail 2 rogues at the same time on a race to 20 at the previous tdm(unnerfed rogues). Ive seen max geared mages hit me like a rogue. Maybe just a slightly longer shield duration or a slightly shorter shield cooldown will do good. Or a lil armor buff instead.
