Posts with tag Three Minute Mage

Welcome back to Arcane Brilliance, our column celebrating our mageness. The defense of the mage was our first topic, but it's time to move on to talk about mages themselves, specifically the three types of mages. Now I say three types knowing perfectly well that you can consider hybrids (such as me) another type of mage, but since there are three talent trees, we will stick with the notion of three mages.

When looking at the three types of mages, I thought I might as well discuss the type of mage I play (well technically anyway) first. It only makes sense, seeing as how I know her skills best and all. It is really interesting that I don't actually meet that many Arcane mages. You would think that this would be the spec of choice, going only by the name. Mages wield arcane weapons, and being trained in the arcane arts, it just seems natural that Arcane would be our home. I'm sure you're out there, you purists, those that have stepped down to the bottom of the tree and taken no other talents along the way, I just haven't met you yet.
