WOW FOREVER · CLASS GUIDE
Mage
Knowledge becomes power.
The Mage controls fights from range with Arcane, Fire and Frost magic. High damage meets strong control and low physical resilience. Portals, teleportation and conjured food also shape travel beyond combat.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Knowledge becomes power.
As a Mage, you control the battlefield from range with Arcane, Fire or Frost magic. You deal heavy damage, freeze enemies in place and escape danger through well-timed spells. Portals, teleportation and conjured food give the class a distinctive role beyond combat as well.
