Tanks: Take damage, heal, capture flag
Rogues: Do damage, capture flag
Mages: Stay back and stun a lot (always have charged fire)
(Tip for rogues- circling around the enemy to strike from behind seems to work quite well, if you can get your team to cooperate.)
For mages, since we aren't much use anymore to heal, you're best off with shield, to reduce the damage, especially with invulnerability, since I've found that when you hang back, the tanks are more likely to aim for you (keep stunning them).
