I just started a new mage account on Rhiannon
and I just wanted to know which type of mage is better? Ice or fire?

Fire as a noob with ice support spells for mana and protection, and when you become a higher level its best to be either pure ice or pure fire.

Attunement spell is extremely vital to good damage at any level as well

You wont have enough points for attunement until level 90+.

Fire mage with cloak of fire is convenient at low levels.

Uh... Maxing attune still does great dps. I had 20/20 attune at level 63 and would 2 hit mobs

I don't remember commenting on attune's ability to increase DPS. At level 60, you had 59 points to spend, and a skill cap of 20, right? You will only have enough points to have 20/20 shards, 20/20 blast and 20/20 attune. Then you only have 2 points (I think?) for lure, shield, boost, ect. How is that a viable build?

Can you imagine the energy consumption? I can, because my level 65 ice mage loses it's energy after killing maybe 3 mobs.

This works for me, currently level 70.
5/20 e boost
20/20 fireball
18/20 firestorm
10/20 e shield
20/20 attune
Works amazing

Sure. I bet your DPS is amazing without a lure

Lures arent that critical at lower levels. And yes i consider spell damage on enemies of 400-500 (800-900 in the skill description) to be great dps for a level 70

With lure, you'd be hitting 600-700+ instead. Big difference between good and great DPS.

If skill description says 800-900, what about attune? If your attune is around 500 extra damage, you're hitting like a quarter of your max potential.
