For Mage, all you do is /assist > /pet Attack > Nuke at 50%. On raids you sit there and summon sticks.

Rogue: /assist > /attack on > backstab. CR can take skill in certain zones.


None of these take a lick of skill.
Yeah, looks like you have played a mage for a long time [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
I won't claim it's rocket science, but there's a bit more to playing a Mage than your description could have one think.
I must be doing it wrong because reading the job description it's so obvious I should be 60 by now.

What about debuffs ? you know mages get some, don't you ? that thing some pepole cast to help other party members land spells (like slow) on mobs. But you can't cast them too early to avoid aggro, but no too late either.

what about keeping a DS on MT at all time ? yeah ok that's 2 clicks but this free dmg can add up real fast when you spend a couple hours in a camp.

what about knowing which of your 5/4/3 pets is the best suited vs the mob you're killing when soloing. Guess you have to try/ die & learn

What about chain casting, have you ever tried to do it vs a mob that will kill you within seconds if there isn't a pet between you and him ?

What about getting in range of mobs to get hit to avoid you pet dying, just long enough to land a heal on your pet but no too long to avoid low hp aggro.

BTW, we mages can't slow/ snare & kite/ fear kite/ root/ root & rot mobs, we just have to send buffed pet and nuke/ DoT

Damn, those mages really are the easiest class to play....

If I was an AH, I could also write Clerics are easy to play, but I won't because I know squat about them

/target MT
/cast heal
/sit
/gems

Playing a shaman can't be hard, can it ?
/target MT & melee dps
/cast buffs & haste or /cast group buff
/assist MT
/slow mob
/canni

or when you solo
/slow mob
/send pet
/root
/cast DoTs
/canni
/profit


Did I forget something about those slackers ? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No offense meant in my answer, but each class may appear as a stupid easy one to play, but I don't think there is one.
