    ammmm, since i have been in TW for only 5/6 times, i don't have too much experience with TW, but here are what i know.

    1.Follow the instruction of your squad leader (very important, u may be in base defense team or cata support team and so on)
    2.since u r mage, basically u support to kill heavy user like BM and Barb, don't forget to press T and filter with BM and Barb
    3.Assist attack ur squad (very important), debuff, nuke to tick their charm etc..
    4.Don't die b:surrender
    5.run run run, save chi and sneak attack,b:laugh

    Kill whatever is wearing heavy armor, preferably something that's debuffed. Mainly cata pullers and BMs, barbs that are trying to kill people are worthless. Archers/veno's may be targets but they're not as important unless they're carrying +12 weapons etc.
    Wondering how much longer these **** packs are going to be around.

    I'm doing TW every week. Good geared and leveled wizard is most important person in TW. Because his ultimates. He killing lot of people in same time with one shot. You know, you can do TT,FF,BH without wizards, BUT you cannot win TW without wizards. Of course not at lv.24. But lv.99+ you became in TW killing machine. Your role is launch ultimates every time you have sparks and you will see lot of death people crying.b:laughb:laughb:laugh

    From 99 you can learn sage/demon ultimates which is enormous boost in damage.

    that is some pretty amazing damage for a pre 99 mage.. there didn't happen to be a dragon or something just before that screenshot was there? b:surrender
    and what weapon is that?

    ah you're right, I see the bless buff that you get from sage triple spark and apoth pots are not on cooldown.

    No decent guild will let you triple spark an ulti... especially without using anti stun in the middle of the road. Anything within 40m should be trying to stop you.

    OMG i love that pic of everyone getting LOLraped

    The weapon is Buddha Fail...i mean Buddha Leaf
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    to answer the original question. This varie on faction, tactics and role. The 2 most common here at Sanctuary are defense and destroy - aka Anti Barb / BM nd Interceptor.

    Having done over 100 TWs and done many different roles in TW. There is too much detail to go into a single guide.

    I can summarise though.

    Anti Barb - Someone spots a cata, squad targets it venos amp + purge, bm stuns, you nuke the **** outta it.

    Anti BM's have nice running battles annoying the daylights outta them by using vac powders to **** their stuns up and put alot of magic up their jacksi


    Interceptor - If it bleeds or it breathes then it needs to die. Hunt down and kill. See squishies use BT see HA's use BID end of story

    End summary

    I don't need no pdef, cos I got ... BOOM HEADSHOT !

    Verry importent, stay out of packs of fac mates (and obviusly don't go stand in the middle of packs of enemy's, unles you want to pop an invicible pot and use Dragons Breath)

    Stay away from the people a BM would usually target to stun (so usually, stay off the road on the grass on the sides of the road) and kill everything that walks.

    Usually priority when defending:
    1. Cleric/Catabarb (depending on whether you have a special roll or not, if not than go for cleric, if you're role is HA kill than directly barb as someone else will deal with the cleric)
    2. BM's who stun
    3. Anything else in priority HA, LA, arcane (unles you want to pop a BT)

    When attacking:
    Kill everything, starting with HA and clerics, LA, arcane (again, unles you have been given a special role from your leader)
    9 out of 10 voices in my head say I'm not crazy... the 10th is singing the music of tetris

    OOhh forgot about those points thanks Siro.

    Last few things

    If your server has the equiv of BigPunisher rememebr to swear or say good fight before you die from armageddon

    Have your veno in squad bramble all defense squishes cos its just fun.

    If you about to die and not stunned - meh **** it Emberstorm 2 weeks back I got 4 people that way - raging lol



    Also if your opponents are too easy take of your wep and cast unarmed, it makes it fairer.
