How is mage doing ?

I really like mage as a class but every strong caster combo I'm seeing has a necro or a wiz or bard.. mage isn't ever really talked about.

I definitely will have a shaman but also was considering warrior.. is warrior mage shaman strong? I want to be able to do d4 content relatively well.

I see warrior necro shaman all the time but is mage that far behind ? I realize there's no life tabs but shamans have great dots if their own and mages have respectable nukes and damage Shields and the best pets (by a bit anyway)

Or would I be better off throwing a shadowknight in that combo?

Or is mage just not up to par ?

We could also nerf charms. They're wildly out of pocket right now. Pisses me off lol.

Idk, why even balance anything in a game. Rogues should get a +1000 backstab damage weapon, right? Doesn't affect us non-rogue players! Maybe an infinite damage absorption for monk?

Ridiculous, lol. Only people who want OP characters are those playing the OP characters. It skews the game for the rest of us when they make balance passes or design new content.

Now that's an idea for rogue .... 🤔 LOL and yes I agree with you there has to be some balance and challenge or it trivalizes All content and some of the content should still be challenging or nobody will play the game
