Title: MAGE DPS viability for 3 box
Post by: Dontee on May 30, 2011, 12:52:18 am
I am just getting rolling with my 3 box, WAR/PAL/MAG. I just started killing BOT named and the pet dies in the first 10% of any named being engaged, no time to heal him. I dont use the mage for anything but the pet DPS because he gets resisted so much and it isnt worth the effort. Would I be better off dropping the mage for a melee DPS that can pump out decent DPS just autoattacking? maybe a monk? Does Pet Affinity AA help enough here by making the pet get buffbot buffs?

I appreciate any insight you may have, would like to not be gimp as I plan to be on this server a while.

A few things that might help you.

1) Make sure your tank is making the mob face away from the pet, often they might do an AoE or the like, but should lesson that effect some...

2) Get the pet affinity AA then go grab a Pally Epic 1.0 and make it one handed, voila your pet will now heal itself and the group whenever it procs for about 500ish points.

3) Make sure the Pally is buffing up the pet when you can so that it can have the extra life.
