Mage Soaking

#1 » Post by Fitzpatrick » 03 Apr 2017 14:43

With the recent Vanilla-like resist changes, Mages can make themselves very useful on several fights by almost eliminating raid-wide AE damage taken when healing is an issue. The most notable fights here are Viscidus and Princess Huhuran, where relieving stress on healing can often be more useful than damage done.

I made a mage some months ago almost specifically for this purpose, when these two fights were progression fights, and thought I'd record the Princess Huhu fight to show how little damage a proper geared and speced Mage can take in a fight that used to be absolutely crushing. Needed talents: Magic Absorption (Arcane); Ice Barrier, Cold Snap (Frost). My Mage easily shot up to about 250 Nature Resist with only the tailored Cenarion NR gear, enchants, and a couple decent NR rings. See Armory Here.
