Mage F ability

From level 5 Mage gets Blink on the F key. Teleports you 18 yd forward. It recharges in 10 seconds, so it works as an escape when the ring of enemies closes in rather than as damage.

Mage build tips from the numbers

The game ranks a class's spells by a rough crowd damage per second at rank 1: damage per cast times the enemies it can reach, over its cooldown. For Mage the top six are Flamestrike, Blizzard, Cone of Cold, Fireball, Arcane Explosion and Blast Wave.

Passives that pair with that list: Blessing of Might, Arcane Intellect, Amplify Magic and Power Word: Fortitude. These are suggestions computed from the numbers, not results from play-testing.
