    Are you guys running frost or fire on your mages for dungeon farming? I hit 60 very recently on my mmmmp team and still have my leveling aoe build.

    Frost is better for trash groups with shatter/cone of cold, I run fire though since I find it more fun and it's good for burning down bosses. Fire does need better gear though and there are several bosses/trash in BRD/UBRS that are fire immune/resistant.

    I'd stick with frost until you gear up. Instant flamestrike/blastwave is a thing to behold though.

    Can you post your fire build? How do you get instant flamwstrike with blastwave...you need POM but then not enough points to get blastwave or im confused?

    It's something like this

    Some people go the Arcane Power route, I didn't like it because it basically locks you down to a 3 minute cooldown and you miss out on 3% fire crit, 7% fire damage and Blast Wave for trash. I also PVP a lot too. The AP build is great for bosses and a bigger mana pool - in the end it's all about how you like to play. With AP I felt chained to the cooldown and killing trash was boring.

    No i agree..i absolutely love Pyro POM but i also love blastwave.....somehow i missed the combination of points and didjt think both were possible...now i get the best of both worlds. I rarely use AP so its not an issue....are you able to down Balazaar with this build without AP? This is peefect since its a pve dungeon and pvp build in one. Im not raiding atm so being fire doesnt bother me. Mainly farming strat live.

    Yeah, but maybe one out of every four runs I'll get a random death or two. The main thing is to get fire ward/scorch debuff up and keep the 'tank' at full health before he transforms. I don't really bother with him right now since I don't need his loot and the recipe he drops doesn't go for much on my server so it's not worth the durability loss.

    So what's your run, mainly just trash for gold and orbs?

    Thanks for your help guys. Shadow protection and fireward did the trick. Killed him on the first try. I also specced pom and then deep into fire with blastwave and cleared the whole place even faster without any deaths.
