In my limited, wintergrasp-only pvp experience, I can kill any warlock that isn't metamorphosis without too much trouble, though I sometimes die after they do from dots.

I rarely win against a mage, they have too many ways to play keepaway, and even if you somehow break most of them they can just iceblock and wait for cooldowns to tick and you'll be back at square one.

Mages are absolute bullshit in game right now for pvp. A good frost mage can kite you even better then a really good hunter. And do more damage while they are at it, and if they get in trouble they can just force a trinket with their ice tomb junk, then poly and invis.

ITT: wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I can't PvP

$100 says izzy is a mage, and it's true mages are insanely OP atm, mages and holy pallys need a nerf imo. oh and priests, fuck priests

Mages kite better than hunters while doing more damage? They force trinkets with their Ice Tombs? Do you have any idea what you're talking about?

This discussion didn't help me decide between mage and lock. Fuck.

[Ohaigaiz]

1v1 lock beats all classes except really geared dks. 2v2... lol. 3v3, pmr, spell cleave etc rape, 5v5 mage still rocks.

in my opinion they're both really good, it's just that mages have more versatility in the arena. honestly they hang neck and neck, it's just easier to be a better mage than it is to be a really good aff lock. not that either are hard to begin with.

[Krye]

Priests need nerfs and warlocks are harder to play than mages?

Sure is a lot of not knowing what the fuck you're talking about in this thread

Nice contribution. Care to elaborate more? Yes I usually pop my trinket against Ice Tomb because I can either AMS or spell reflect a polymorph and gnome racial out of novas. Hunters I can easily CoI and Death grip their disengages or chain charge them on my warrior.

meh I was looking at mage vs lock in both pve+pvp areas. Know quite a few people with both leveled and swear by one or the other. Just need a caster for cata that I can enjoy in both areas coming from a melee/hunter.

Both have annoying aspects to them. Lock seems like it can move more in pve which gives it an edge for me, but I don't want to level it and dislike pvp on it and have rathered a mage lol.

Spamming dots on an entire group in pvp is kinda lolzy.

Mages have 3(if you count brain freeze procs) instant spells, one of which is ice lance which does terrible damage to anyone not frozen (nova, frostbite). Hunter damage is all instant (aside from steady shot which isn't needed to drop someone), meaning they can do a lot more damage on the run while a mage needs to stop and cast.

By Ice Tomb I assume you mean deepfreeze, which can only be cast while you are rooted. As a DK you can icebound fortitude to keep from being stunned, then use AMS to keep from being rooted again. Using CoI and Death Grip on a mage the same way you would a hunter (to keep them from getting distance) is even more troublesome for a mage. As a mage I'm not going to shatter combo you at 10yrds away and have you right back on my ass, where as a hunter will be laying into you with instants as long as you aren't in his deadzone.

As a warrior against a mage, you're pretty much boned. It's not impossible to lock a mage down, but it's a hell of a task.

I've been hacked 4 times in the last month, fucking cool. I've been unable to play because of this shit, so stupid.

No offense, but you're probably doing something terribly wrong here. >_>

[D44kpunk]

mage is the hardest class to play as far as pvp goes, and yeah i think priest is OP, not as OP as a holy pally but still

[Ohaigaiz]

mage is the hardest class to play as far as pvp goes

say what

[D44kpunk]

yup

[Lee]

You guys are wrong, ROGUES are the hardest class to play in PvP, ROGUES HAVE SO MUCH SHIT AT THEIR DISPOSAL THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT! GOSH!

[Boyiee]

Mage may be more difficult to play than some classes in pvp, but does that take fun away from it? Is it fun at all? Lol.

Lock looks ok but seems annoying to play. Being a pet class, stomping totems, fuck that shit. But being more mobile in pve is appealing coming from a melee.

Wow quick reply double post
