Best arena partner for a mage 2s/3s

Looking for easy mode in a way, friends would be playing the mage. Looking for a class that can do both 2s and 3s with a mage but primarily focus on rating in 3s. I’ve asked this a few different way but can’t seem to get a definitive answer… I’m leaning toward Feral right now, but that’s only because it’s the highest rating I’ve achieved really.
In some cases the character chosen will only be level 50 right now so I’d like to get this sorted out to I can grind levels on the weekend if I need to.

Appreciate the help

WW/arms/feral in that order probably.

2s and 3s?
rogue

2s: rogue/ret
3s: ww, warrior, spriest, feral, then rogue in that order probably

Will nothing but a rogue work with a mage in 2s?
A ret works in 2s but not in 3s?
Would a rogue really be that more significant in 2s than a feral?

A mage! !XarBomb

firemage/x is a good 2s comp

Lol been thinking about it, but if mages take some nerfs, we are both screwed.

I mean, yea they basically carry… but I want easy mode. Tried warrior with the mage in 3s, and it was good… 2s was brutal

firemage/arms/hpal best comp in the game

fire/x literally any dps or hpal,disc is good in 2’s

Best double dps 2s comps for a mage in no particular order.

  1. Rogue/Mage
  2. Moonkin/Mage
  3. Feral/Mage
  4. Mage/Mage (Double Fire)
  5. Windwalker/Mage
  6. Ret/Mage
  7. Elemental/Mage
  8. Shadow/Mage
  9. Destro lock/Mage

could put healer mage too since mage does the damage of two players.

Yeah especially disc/mage and holy paladin/mage.

From your advice previously and a 2700 feral, I’m going to try feral/mage and FMP.

Anyone got an idea on how to gear up to 200+ the quickest? Or is it spamming bgs again?

yeah it’s spamming bgs to 197, you can start arena around 185 for conq cap but dont expect a ton of success till 197

:sob::sob::sob::sob: I figured, just hate losing bgs when I can’t carry lol
And I’ve been told feral doesn’t do damage till ilvl 200 :slightly_frowning_face:

the ilvl 160-197 grind is reaaally brutal. Like i went from one shotting 4 people at once on my fdk with chillstreak and now im lucky to even get off a chillstreak before i instantly die :stuck_out_tongue:

Because you’re sub 190?
Like are you saying at lvl 59 you were killing 4 people at once?

yeah lvl 59 with 130 ilvl is sorrt of equivalent to doing max lvl bgs at like 220 ilvl as far as ilvl is considered, so you go from feeling extremely powerful to useless when u ding 60.

And yah if people were stacked in those low lvl bgs chill streak would just obliterate like 4 people because most were lower ilvl than me and probly not trying very hard to mitigate it’s damage in the first place

Tbh I don’t see a lot of frost dks in arena… they not very popular?

no not very popular. Unholy is just bad now and frost is a very weird kind of gimmicky spec. Quite strong imo but definitely a weird playstyle that takes team coordination and very specific comps to do well

Cdew/mes/trill play TWD with frost dk tho, and theres a fair bit of them on ladder
