That is awesome! So much DPS.
Do you sometimes keep repeater on through these fights so that movement of all your mages are co-ordinated?

I love it! Makes me want to do 5 mages.

Curious why you bother with Arcane Missile process? As I understand it, they are used to reset your buff stack, but in this case your mana won't run out before boss dies. Seems like your kills would be faster, but I'm not 100% up to date on mages.

Aye, especially when you need to walk backwards and still willing to face boss on all your toons.

Sometimes I use missiles for finishing bosses, in this video I think I used missiles only once so.. :)

I can imagine that must've taken quite some wipes.... What was the hardest trash pack? Since I asume you could sheep most of it.

Ring of Frost probably trivializes most packs that you cant sheep.

This.
Vortex Pinnacle / Grim Batol / Shadowfang Keep trash for example; Very very easy with RoF rotation.
Basically I just have my slave mages waiting behind corner, and when my main mage pulls a pack, some of my slaves drops the RoF to the ground while my main runs through it back to the team. Then I just burst everything down one by one, and drop more RoFs when needed to keep the pack in control.
Rotated Improved Counterspell plays a great role there as well, if the pack is full of casters
So, to be honest, there really is no "hard trash" ;)

Nice! :D
Forgot about ROF idd. Since for bosses the main thing is that the mirros 'tank'. Was wondering how that works for Trash. But it's no problem I guess then.

Just slained Onyxia.. frapsed it but dunno if I want to publish it, was one helluva fight thanks to stuck/weird repeater this time.. maybe next reset goes smoother :)

How do you manage placing RoF with the slaves while pulling/running with the main?

I have round-robin rotation set for Ring of Frost.
In ISBoxer config I also added "Next Click -> All other" to each step, which allows me to broadcast mouse clicks.
Holy shit! Mages do alot of dmg, never seen that big hits when playing as hunter or shaman! Keep it up :)

hehe cheers :)
Btw, managed to clear Grim Batol heroic, thought it wasnt doable and last boss was tricky at first.. One more daily orb for the team :D
Btw2, managed to clear The Vortex Pinnacle heroic as well, Once again lucky wind behind at Altairus.. Easiest orb ever from last boss (with 4 more "no static at all" achivement, only one jump needed :D)
How do you keep the slaves "faced" to the target while moving around ?

When I do that I use repeater, so the slaves are not following the master. They just copy whatever the master does. Including turning around running etc

I would roll a 5x mage team in a heartbeat, except...
It's impossible to get any valor points whatsoever because you can't queue them all up at the same time for the dungeon finder.
How do you get gear then (other than BoEs)? Do you have to pug them in two separate groups?

how that i got u here^^ - Can you post some macro´s ( if u use that) importent setups.. other stuff, I / we need to know, when we gonna lvl those mages

- little questing (to unlock possible dungeon quests)
- grinding the PvP set (its not perfect for PvE but a good start if you got no other gear)
- 346 (+ some 359) faction gear from grinding cata rep
- pick professions that give you some crafted 359 items
And seriously 5 mages are so much fun I rarely worry about gearing them up further...

also you can gear them by running heroics on your own, but first you need some decent gear from non-heroic dungeons, or if you're wealthy, buy some 359 BoEs. Those are dirt cheap nowadays.

Have a tank and healer at 85, queue for random dungeon with three mages. Kick healer and tank, then invite your other mages. Problem solved.

I'm pretty sure the other two mages wouldn't get valor points in that case.

To do it this way you would have to either have enough tank types and healer types on your 5 accounts, so that you could form a group twice. One with 3 mages a tank and healer and then another time with a tank and healer on two different accounts from the first set. OR have 7 accounts. a Tank/healer on 6th and 7th to do just this for any other all DPS teams you might have in the future 8)

I'll have to try it, I'm not logging in much until 4.2 hits. This was just a recommendation from a friend.

My mages are 84. Ill need to farm normals to get gear. What gear level is needed to farm BoT trash with 5 mages?
07-24-2011, 09:37 PM

So you've absolutely inspired me. I'm levelling up a mage team, but I'm sure that mirror image will somehow get nerfed just as I get to 85.

i noticed you have not killed Temple Guardian Anhuur. How do you get passed him? You have other bosses dead in there. You have to kill him to pass him right?

Any update on heroic bosses? I figured with new gear might come some more boss deaths.

Rest of the bosses are not that gear dependant.
Temple Guardian Anhuur requires healing, thanks to two lever phases and aoe damage.
Isiset takes too long with the splits.
High Profet Barim takes too long, mages enter different phases in phase 2 (needs focused bird killing).
Siamat is locked before High Profet Barim dies.
Admiral Ripsnarl vapor phases taking too long, can kill the vapors but no images left tanking the boss rest of the fight.
Vanessa VanCleef and Captain "Cookie" are locked before Ripsnarl dies.
Halazzi takes too long with the phase changes and on each phase his hp goes back to 100%
Hex Lord Malacrass and Daakara are locked before Halazzi dies.
Jin'do the Godbreaker goes smooth until you have to break the chains, can do one chain but that's it. Images on cd when you have to tank the berserkers with body slam stuff.
Basically all I have done since 4.2 is some FL dailies and trash runs ;)
