First off thanks for coming to my guide, second off, if you plan on making a twink Mage let me tell ya, they are freakin sneaky devils, especially ice and they are also ridiculously powerful, so well worth the time and effort put into making one, so without further adieu lets get started
(to use this table of contents press Control. F to bring up the finder, then type in the topics number that you want to see and hit the "find next" button twice)
Armor
Helm ~ Spellpower Goggles Xtreme - requires engineering so, For engineers only
Electromagnetic Gigaflux Reactivator - +15 Intellect, +12 Spirit Use: Channels a bolt of lightning and hurls it towards all enemies in front of the caster causing 147 to 167 Nature damage. The caster is then surrounded by a barrier of electricity for 10 min.
So this is probably not the best helm for a mage but it is preaty damn good as well as very very cool. It comes from the last boss of Gnomeregan
