Mage team wk1 arena

[Chowdog]

Well, it been a long time coming. I should of started arena before I had gear just for the 10games to get points rolling in...

my team is 3 mages in 3v3 arena spec'd as arcane atm. I will try frost sooner or later but all of my mage experience to this point has been arcane or fire. Man fire is fun as heck in bg's/wg

First week of playing arena matches and I am at 700 rating.. Still have some things to sort out. I sheep all at the start of the match. Usually one will stay cc'd either wanting to save his trinket, dont want to use it or takes to long to click trinket?? dunno

Then this is where I get in trouble at times..Picking the wrong target to nuke down.. I know it will come with time but if healer in range and non pal..I kill him off the start. If healer is out of range and high threat target(One that can wipe my team aka bladestorm or similar) I nuke em down..A warrior with 40k will drop like a rock with 3 mages.

Shadow priests and destro lock aoe stun just blow chunks.. I usually loose to this combo in arena. Dispersion, dots, fear, aoe stun silence mana burn

I have 880 resil atm and I still need another 200+ to make it a lil easier..My spell pen is a lil low

When they focus one mage I just block the one and control the other 2.. The more I keep pressure on a team the more times I win. When I get defensive it usually ends bad unless it comes to a 1on1 situation then it's game on...That's when it gets real fun



I'd love to hear how others if any are trying an all mage team in arena.. They are incredible in bg's lil rough in arena..I'm working on a elem shaman team now..lvl61 to work both in arena..


I need to get my trinket setup like iceblock. So, I can use it on just one if its a sheep or single target fear.
Group fear and pop em all.


OH!! I gotta thank whoever posted the IWT on mouse fwd and stop on mouse down.. incredible for facing issues

I will probably have to edit this as I am all amped up after getting out of arena just now lol. <---that says it all reading this post over again.


You think I should mount up and close the distance on the maps it's needed or just invis walk?
I really need to figure out how to get the dynamic formation to work.. I change leaders constantly

Are you running 3, 4 or 5 mages?
Sounds like 3, so you do 3v3 with them?

[Chowdog]

Yes 3v3..guess you didnt see the "First week and I am at 700"

It's fun but needs work lol

I don't see how you can find out what arenasize you play in that sentence, but ok :P

Good luck and i'll follow your adventures, playing as arcane i asume?

[Chowdog]

yeah, after reading what I posted it's like wow that makes no sense or partial sense. Guess I should wait till a day after to post arena adventures lol

I run with 3 mages in 3v3 arena

Going to edit the post since I have some time
