Mage solo strategy question

[dafier]

That's why I went with duoing, or trio. I just started out, I got some hand-me-downs but nothing great and my mana resource wasn't good enough to run that fire pet cast over and over thing.

Every mage I saw soloing and re-casting fire pet over and over had decent gear from way higher level dungeons than they are.

Plus, when you duo or trio, xp flows faster. Group xp > solo ALWAYS when you have constant flow of mobs.
