"The Mage / Rogue combination focuses on Dark magic with a vampiric theme, giving a powerful damage over time effect (Cursed Fangs), a high-cooldown life-draining nuke (Kiss of the Vampire), a powerful PVP cooldown (Demoralized), a self-buff increasing Dark damage done (Fang Ritual), and a skill that temporarily moves you to the bottom of the aggro table (Distract)."

that sounds badass

i feel like this would be a badass combo, but idk, is there anyone using this combo successfully

(this is my first character, im a mage right now with no 2ndary class)

M/R was fun when I played... I switched from a M/P to a M/R... In pvp i could have people (especially melee users) of upwards of 20seconds... so M/R is pvp oriented but overall, M/P is A LOT easier to play solo because of self heals.

thanks for the reply, currently im on a pve world because im new. i figured a pvp world would just be tons of ganking. what secondary would be best for a mage on a pve world?

m/r is a good combo. m/p is good because you can heal yourself.

p/k > p/m > m/p

p/w is also great but quite expensive (2 sets of gear)

p/w has been broken for a while and cant really say p/k is better than m/p because its two different roles in a party

So I guess I'm leaning towards M/P, m/r seems more pvp based

yeah. Ontop of that, Come to osha server IGN's Rasmus i'm only on weekends though
