Well I`ll soon finish some mage guides I`ve been working on,and I just wanted to post a few tricks every *FrosT*mage should know (mainly for frost mages):
1. Use frostbolt rank 1 to slow down enemies = 1 sec cast time 60 % (40% if not specced )
2. Same goes for rank 1 Blizzard.Use it to find rogues and druids in stealth. *(you can use Arcane Explosion rank 1 too)*
3. A great combo is: Water Elemental + Ice Block than wait 10 sec,blink,cold snap, repeat Water Elemental + Ice Block,10 sec wait,frost nova ,deep freeze,then kill him.Finally earn the "Make love not Warcraft" achievment by doing /hug
4. A great way to blink is: You run forward ,jump,and just before pressing blink -you should turn a little.That way you will cofuse your enemy and you will end up left or right,and you can FFbolt him/Pyro,because he won't know where did you dissapear
5. Counterspell is a mages best friend.Use it to intecept heals,spells etc. ,but you can also use it on warriors to get them in combat,or rogues to put CD on their abilities.
6. When falling from BIG heights,you have few ways to survive.You can use slow fall.You can Ice-block a few feet above the ground (the closer you ice-block,the better),or you can blink right before hitting the ground.
7. You can dismount enemies in BGs with polymorph.That`s very usefull...No running from a mage ey?
8. Use /castsequence macros.You can dish out a quite nice combo with that,and fast
9. Don`t think you need every CD for all fights.If you use them up on one guy,and the other comes?You can`t ask him to wait.Practice killing others without all CDs.(CD=Cooldown)
10. If your a frost-mage,TRY TO use Ice-Armor because frostbite will occur more,and we want that,do we?
11. (BONUS) : Just for the record, ALT+F4 is not a combo.
You should know that some of these tricks have been figured out by other people too,so maybe you`ll find some of these things somewhere on the net
