Wth, mages build was changed just because you buttholes were getting killed in PVP, WHO GIVES A SHUT about PVP?!!!
Mages need that build to level IN GAME. Who gives a flying frick about who beats who in pvp?!

I can't believe $1000 spent in this game wasted bc a bunch of dildoes care if they can kill someone else one on one...I need to kill bosses, I need to kill mobs. I don't care about if your frickin new offhand can kill me in one hit, big deal, now what? Oh kill someone else 100 times in a row? Great. Now what? Oh, go kill a boss or do a quest? Yeah, THAT'S THE GODDAMM GAME! NOT PVP!
Changing mages builds for the sake of pvp is unforgivable.

Change the skills back.

not nerfed because of pvp, nerfed because dps was beating rogues.

mages are intended to win short fights, and be support. not win long boss fights

Well that's a damn pitiful justification then. Long fights are affected by mage energy issues. When I cast a lot in a boss fight I run out of mana, even with energy boost. Making the class unplayable against anything but one star mobs is a pitiful way to address that which, I will point out, was already addressed by mana consumption.

Pigman, what the hell are you talking about? Mages win short fights? Since when? A rogue will deal fast hard damage and get a kill everytime. Mages only hope is a long fight to repeatedly blast the opponent before we die. No way we are meant to win a short fight unless our skill regen is a LOT faster. I cast two skills : shards and blast. If they are both successful and the mob is still alive I pray my shield won't collapse before my skills regenerate so I can throw another one. If that should evade, I pray my shield is close to being able to be recast. Either way, it's a difficult way to kill a mob trying to level without using pots to stay alive. I can't level alone without pots while lixed, or u sit and wait to double shield a mob. This was BEFORE they nerfed us.
People who don't play a Mage just do not understand how bad this truly is.
We play to have fun, for me personally, having built up my Mage for two years it's a slap in the face for all the support I've given otm, financially and by helping build a strong community in the game. I'm not saying it would even matter if I stopped playing this game to otm, but otm has unjustly ruined this game for anyone playing a Mage. I've read all the comments about this nerf, most people agree that mages got the shaft. We need everything put back the way it was.

They were too harsh on eshield and ice blast thou.

I suggest keep eshield in v4 stat (but nerf them for pvp, PVP ONLY)
Ice blast reduce 20% (45% basically turn it into poop)

I think it would be nice for a dev to actually come out and say what they intend to be top dps and list from #1 dps class to #5 dps class. That way we wouldn't have all these people complaining that mages are supposed to be better dps than rogues and vice versa. Personally I think rogues should be best dps because that's all a rogue can be is dps, while a mage can be support and dps and a mix of the both but then again who cares what I say I'll just have all the butthurt people on my arse from either side anyways so whatever.

I totally agree! I just posted this in another thread; but I could care less about out dpsing any other class. I want to survive as an ice Mage without dieing every mob I have to kill in order to level. While group leveling I was dealing 4-6k damage, but it was NOT every cast! The varying level of hits (which every Mage knows about) and the evades would make it one or two hits on a mob I was able to connect. If I had my energy levels all up to snuff and was successful in casting ice lure, then shards and if I hit the mob first- I would get the kill.
But more often than not, a rogue who would get to the mob first and start hitting it while I sat back and let skills and energy regen, would lock the mob and get the kill.
If I were to die, my dps was 2-4k for as long as it would take for ice attunement to regen (could be up to 3 minutes)
While mages could hit hard as hell

Continued...
While mages were able to hit hard as hell it was not consistent, but was just good enough to keep us alive to level alone.

No sorry this is factually incorrect, mages got a huge boost and then a relatively tiny correction as the burst damage was causing issues with game balance.
