Well don't get me wrong. I LOVE mages, as my class in sig suggests (times 3...rofl, only class I've played since Classic dropped and still play today). I think you'd enjoy the class. However, if you want something that is intended to group....

Mage is a solo creature. It's best use is utility. It can do well in groups yes, but what it provides in groups, for the most part, are able to be provided by other classes and they would be better at it (Wizard. Rogue.). They aren't exactly sought after unless the group needs/wants a pet tank, a coth (only 55+ with appropriate spell), or summoned items. Otherwise, mage would mostly only be picked up for groups if you know the people in the groups (make friends, develop cliques) or if the group wasn't expecting anything in particular to fill in that spot. Mages are more than capable of handling themselves alone (lol innuendo) and everyone knows it. They are among the top echelons of solo classes. Still are on Live today. Just how the class was built.


Something like a Cleric or an enchanter etc however are very group centric. They will be heavily sought after and you will rarely be alone [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But most importantly, play what you wanna play. If you wanna play mage I'm happy for you, I love them as well =D. Could give you some tips etc if you want. I'm simply saying, if your previous post about wanting to group more than anything is true, mage was not your best choice.
