The Mage is a World of Warcraft class that casts powerful spells to eliminate enemies in short periods of time. The Mage is also able to cast powerful buffs, port to major cities, provide food and drink, crowd control, and protect and shield themselves from damage. The Mage has three main areas of spell focus: fire, frost, and arcane. The Mage can deal massive amounts of single target and area of effect damage. The Mage is a versatile class to have in groups and is deadly to oppose.
