Hmmm....I can see both sides of this debate. I run into a lot of mages who never cast heal and only rez if they're asked 25 times by 3 different party members. I've also seen mages complain about tanking, but.....you run ahead of everyone, are always the first in the room and what do you expect? My biggest headache is with Firestorm and Icestorm. Yes, useful spells--in their place. Firestorm has a huge AoE and will drag enemies into battle from 5 counties away. It also pushes stuff out of Thorn Wall--you know, that skill I used to keep stuff off you and keep you safe? So you could cast Lightning and we could clear them all at once? Or Icestorm as a bear is about to Stomp following Beckon, except stuff can't move now and they wasted their combo. I think we all need to be more aware of our team-mates and try to work together better.
And, no, I don't get it either--what is with casting Rez in the middle of a fight and no one's dead yet? Hoping it does something? Hoping it prevents death? I dunno, but it drives me crazy when I play mage (healing mage). I keep looking around thinking I missed Rezzing someone and....nobody was dead.
