There aren't many options for a Mage other than DPS, which fits into this Trinity strategy, yet the developers are determined to force classes out of this "basic" role.

The Warrior class is given some leeway in that they can either be DPS or protection spec'ed, but their role is still pretty defined. Priests are now given much more freedom to be either total healers or DPS. However, Mages are still locked in place as straight DPS and as a result the developers, in their infinite wisdom to try and change this obvious role, keep on nerfing.

Hopefully with the new patch Druids will once again find some utility as tanks.

If the developers keep on meddling and bluring the lines, eventually everyone will be pretty much the same and all the originality and uniquness will be gone.
