Is it really different that an
AoE root every 15 secs ?
, a aoe
8 second fear
every 30 seconds ? Or a
8 second root
every 25 secs AND a
4 second root
every 10 seconds ?
Guess what ? Ranged have abilities to be able to escape melee attacks.
Not sure what you're responding to, but I would just like to note that Fire mages would still have access to (and rely on) the last two.
Fire's got all the tools to be competitive...except dispel protection.
Actually the main barrier I found in arena as fire is that living bomb breaks CC.

Main thing thats making fire mages op in bgs is the sprint ability they have, it procs way too often.

Lol. It's a 10% chance to poc on melee abilities. And when mage ward breaks. If you play a melee class you should be snaring them, and if you play a ranged class you should be nuking the crap out of them.

they can be dispelled by the
very "sprint ability" you are addressing?

Erm, so the second blazing speed procs (which isn't that often in teh first place) the mage is out of range? How did you get into melee range in the first place? You should have enough uptime that the cooldowns you used are up, and if you're unlucky and it procs on the first strike, well, $%^& happens. If you have bad luck you aren't going to be winning many battles in the first place, and if the fire mage has bad luck he's pretty much guaranteed to lose, where as you're only more likely to lose.
If blazing speed procs all you gotta do is slow them again, it's not like it makes them immune to slows.

If you find Fire mages annoying id love to see what you consider Frost mages.
In all fairness i have to say Fire Mages are not really a big threat as frost.

As a pvp fire mage, I say we are indeed very annoying against melee and have 2 interupts besides counterspell against casters, too. We have so much mobility it's incredible. I beat an arms warrior with 2.6k resil in a duel the same day I hit 85.
Personally, I am upset that warriors are having their spell reflect cd doubled (glyphed that is) mainly because that was the only way they could do anything to protect themselves and even then I put up ward so I could proc my own blazing speed.
I love my fire mage and I actually got one of my guildies hooked on his fire mage, too =P
It just sucks that I can't play WoW for awhile...
