Fire or frost mage

I see a lot of frost mages but fire apparently does more damage…what’s better?

Defensive vs offensive is what I’ve gathered.

Dungeons you generally want a frost mage, raids you want fire/arcane

Frost has leveling efficiency.

Frost has better defense so you have more uptime. Not only can monsters often not reach you, but you also have Ice Barrier which is extremely good at avoiding knockback and taking damage.

You can go the infamous AoE grind route which can give absurd amounts of exp when done in the right area and done well. In some areas, you can pull more than 10 mobs at once.

Frost mages can have some good utility, but that is pretty limited at times due to tanks needed to position and reposition mobs in dungeons.

I have always prefered frost personally, but that is because it is about as far from my main as I can get.
