fireball stun (works)

Lightning Strike stun (works)
Frostbolt extended slow (works) - probably <50% chance to work (only tested with extended slow)
Frostbolt freeze (works) - Seen it freeze someone 1 time in about 1000 casts, so not reliable even if it does technically work
Gale Force knock down (works) - i don't use the "aoe" upgrade and it does a 1-2s stun probably 75% of the time when i charge it (i charge most skills for pvp)
Gale Force speed (works)
Gale Force dodge (works)
Shield knockback (unsure)
Time Shift slow (works)
Time Shift stop (unsure)
Curse (don't know anything)

reduce hit chance just worked once for me. only just after i respec and add the hit chance skill. it worked the first fireball in pvp. maybe a bug? never seen it work again afterwards.

i dont use frost so i dont know. i want to compare frost vs lightning. so far i can kill mages by
charge fireball +lightning+ 2gun shot + lightning (+fireball to be sure

) combo, if lucky.

hows fireball frost combo does?

one thing good about frost is that it cast fast. u cast lighting first then frost. the frost will hit the target before lighting. it always does the trick. but since the sript thing for rogue. it just to hard to survive. easy to kill rogue if u survive the first att wave. i got one shot kill almost 70% of the time right now. no a good feeling.

about fighting warriors. if its a well build and fully geared chance r slim. we can stun but the dmg r too low. their heal r too good. and could kill u with a skyward plus windmill. the skyward stun and slow down is really annoying.

I may be bugged now, but I have frost bolt and upgrades 1-3, and frost DoT is now doing 23+ damage per tick...that is nuts and double fireball. This new DoT damage is much higher than in the pre 1-31 patch...

i think that watchman riffle . fireball lighting shield and heal is a good mage skill comb in pvp. but the dmg is too low when pve.

here is the another unfairness to mage. rogue and warriors pvp skills r perfect when pve. but mages r not. it almost need two absolute differnt skill set for pvp and pve.

maybe mages r all rich.
