I'm getting tired of mage AOE farming

I don’t see warlocks doing this to the same extent mages are.

A mage in the hillsbrad fields whispered that an entire field was his because he was there before me. Gave me a nice chuckle.

I <3 sneaking on a mage doing aoe pulls. If u can do it right u can steal some of the low heath tags for urself.

If they’re Horde, gank them. If they’re ally, run more mobs into them.

The hateraid is real in here…It’s not the mages’ fault your class sucks.
You would all do the same thing if the class you were playing could do it.

That’s true. Doesn’t stop it from being funny as hell though.

If you’re a hunter, could you(theoretically speaking) pull a bunch of mobs into a mage’s nova, then feign death so they aggro onto the mage and get free xp or kill the mage?

I think that might work XD

Ya i usually just shoot random adds into the mage Blizzard. Either the mage is going to kill them for me, or the mobs win. Either way its a win:win for me

Isn’t that considered griefing though?

I don’t get what the problem is. You are upset that someone is using their class abilities exactly as intended and tagging mobs you want to tag? You could just as easily be complaining that any other class came by and killed every mob you wanted 1 by 1 before you could arrive on the scene lol Give me a break

The issue is that a single player can tag numerous mobs at once, kill them, and do it all over again as soon as they respawn. Mages are the only class that can do it to this extent. Not only does this give them an advantage over every other class, by refusing to group up with others they are locking out members of their own faction from progressing on quests. A handful of mages can literally lock down an entire zone for everyone else.

They can’t though. You just grief them while they’re trying to round up each pull.

So I can get reported for harassment? No thank you.

Why aren’t you grinding cloth caster NPCs? Not only are they easy to kill, you have the tools to interrupt their spells. Mages don’t aoe any of those locations because getting shot while aoeing is very bad.

Hm…I invite same faction. Just say the word, you get the invite and whammo, you crap is done immediately. It’s faster for the both of us that way. The only problem is that YOU are the one not talking to the mage.

Many times I have to go out of my way to assume people are questing…I ask, they say nothing. I invite them, they insta-refuse. Its like they are toxic pieces of crap that want their oppression fantasy fulfilled.

I’m not on the internet to be reasonable.

Best way to deal with them is get them killed. What I do is aggro a bunch of other mobs. Usually an additional 3-4 i wait till the mage has casted halfway through his blizzard then I run the healthy mobs through the blizzard. They aggro on him. He doesn’t have enough hp to tank them or get away and dies. GG
I keep doing this until the mage goes away.

What’s even more fun, as a priest anyways, is to mind control the mage and walk him into all his frost nova’d targets.

Why haven’t you already been ganking them? Why did you wait until posting this to decide that? That’s like THE reason to play on a pvp server.

But this is harassment and a reportable offense.

How am I supposed to gank my own faction?
