Best combo for MB

[Smedbox]

I haven't seen a rift I cannot close with 2 mages... But it is true that a warrior+healer can do a few things better, and being able to do Randoms more easily can be a big factor. I still think it's way easier to duo two mages for doing dungeons though and when you're in a guild it's not very hard to get the group together anyway.

One thing that is good with two necro/lock mages is that the abilities are ranged and don't require that you face the opponent. This is also very good for PvP.

Right a warrior & healer can do many things like take on elite rift bosses stuff like that the healer can outheal dmg while the tank is tanking dmg and as pld tank i have pots if anything and i also have a spell called touch of life which is very helpful heals me for all my hp when my healer runs out of mana if that does happend which that never really happends tho and then again theres always power sources around during a rift also when i wanna get an instance done i just say in guild chat "need 3 rdps fast" within 5 minutes i got 3 rdps easy im the boss of my party and it always goes well as i am the tank & healer the main classes.

As for mages this is a great combo for pvp and rifting you may want a healer around your mages just in case ^_^ this combo can do some serious dmg over time man i can take down my opponents quickly.

Note that necro can heal both pet and themselves pretty good, and since you can insta-summon pet you can use up to 4 tanks for a difficult fight. You rarely need more healing. You can also switch to chloro and elementalist for better healing and tanking if you really need to. It's pretty easy to beat elite rift bosses with two mages, I think.

The only hard part is to finish the timed elite stages in time. It's hard to kill all of them before the time runs out. Is that easier with a tank + healer? I have yet to try it, but I have the characters created for when I do...
