1. use the pally as the main, gather mobs up, then mash AE on the mage
This is how I do it.

Round them up, consecrate to get initial aggro in the right place, pop up ice barrier, spam consecrate and arcane explosion together, everything dies

I have consecrate and AE on the same key, so the first consecrate is a click but after that it's just button mashing.

Having said that... I run multiple mages, and I don't think you'll be doing *alot* of tearing up with only one.
That seemed like the easiest way to do it, but don't you feel (when spamming the button) that you're wasting mana by not letting consecrate tick? Or is it just me being OCD? And I've thought about running two mages, but I assumed having heals would be better than not having heals, since I'm only 2 boxing. I hope to eventually get into 5 boxing, but that's a ways off yet (darn RL, husband and 2 year old kid lol).
