This Thing You Call Aggro.

Hey Youz Guyz.

I'm playing a mage on another server, and after having done the Wailing Caverns twice now, I realize that my perspective of aggro is completely warped. Why? First character, 60 priest.

Griz has the whole aggro thing down. Fade ftw, rely upon the warrior for a taunt, and generally, everything is copacetic. If the MT goes down, I'm probably fried because I've drawn a lot of hate in my attempts to keep the MT alive. but the answer to this is pretty clear: don't let the MT die.

Nuff said.

After having done a level twenty something instance with my baby mage, I've come to wonder if a mage is ever allowed to let loose outside of solo play? I was struggling with aggro control the other night. Admittedly, there was a slight level discrepency between Yva and the rest of the party - maybe one or two - but she drew aggro fast (fast enough that Quark had to tell me to back down or he couldn't prevent me from getting hurt). Is that pretty much a common thing? Or are there spells I should stick to that are going to keep me less hurt? Arcane missiles are okay, I know. I've seen people use them in the big kid instances, so I'm figuring those are all right to use. Scorch I've heard is good? But when does a mage feel free to let loose with fireballs and such?

My timing is so screwed up. Any of you with thoughts on this, please share. Ears are wide open.
