This is the basic cookie cutter Faction template - 100 Mage/Med/Eval/Wrestling/Archery/Tactics/Resist (you can put 20 points into alchy). The trick is to load your e-bolt or explosion (hold it) and then arm your heavy crossbow and when you get a hard hit on your xbow then unload your spell and go forth into your spell rotation for the kill. Switch out Archery for Swords (use a halberd) and you have yourself the cookie cutter arena template. If you are running with a group in dungeons killing pks then you should be fine with someone main healing. Roach pks like myself are able to survive the L3-4 dungeon mobs and ive never had a problem killing this template while in a dungeon (unless youre a good pvpr but i use the mobs to my advantage) and 90% of the time at CC and all the pvp events you see this template, its a good template! you will be hard pressed killing someone like myself if you are running this template solo in dungeons though!
An effective mage will know which spells to use depending on the fight. Double weaken spell will reduce your targets max health to 80%, cast two weaken spells, then cast telekinesis, and keep some purple potions on you. For example: You could preload an explode out of line of sight, equip your heavy xbow hit the target use a macro to throw purple potion, then finish with an ebolt or flamestrike. You can also hold the ebolt or flame strike and use a rope teleport to catch them if they try to run, and use last object, last target to release the preloaded spell. I believe there are macros and scripts that automate these tasks, but since I mostly pvp as a dexer I dont mess with any of these yet. If you fight dexers it's important to use strength or bless buff, then reactive armor, and use protection spells periodically through the fight. If you run low on mana you will need to kite them around until your mana is back. Goldhide and above armor is good for fighting melee warriors or melee mages as well. Using parrying and healing is also effective against various warrior templates and tank mages. Carry a bow or xbow as well as a heavy xbow. If you roll swords carry a hally, executioners axe, and deadly poisoned katana. Poisoned katana can interupt a dexers bandage if you time it right. The reason you should carry these other weapons is because you can do more damage as more time goes on. Each weapon has a different timer, and the harder hitting weapons have a longer timer, but if you switch to the right weapon at the right time you can do a lot of damage. Helps to count in your head or use visual weapon timers to let you know when to switch weapons. It's also good to use macros to get you out of warmode so your wrestle punches don't reset your weapon timer. Tamers in dungeons that are experienced in PvP will focus on interupting your spells, while their pet attacks making them difficult to fight. Keep bombags handy for paralyze spells
Wow! That is a lot of great info and I will definitely have to practice a lot before attempting this but it also sounds like a lot of fun as well. I cannot wait to get this going. I am definitely a lot more comfortable with a dexxer but always seems like the PKs that do the most damage to us are mages. I am thinking of either trying the archer mage or maybe a poison mage that another person recommended. The Outlands Wiki mostly has PvM templates or very basic PvP templates. Is there another source for PvP templates by chance?
Dude this char is good. Just need to know How to use it. The skills are right. Use hamstring and learn a combo. Mastery chain hás no effect in PvP. Use damage reduce tô survive mobs in Dungeon. Codex do not need . Aspects Go whit war. You need to survive the Monsters in Dungeons
Yeah but at the same time, the last few times I have been killed by reds, it has been between 3 and 7 of them. It's all good, I want to have fun with it! I will def let you know so we can duel. I need to learn!!

Would you recommend more of a pure mage template?
@@xenokronwicked I think poison mage all the way.. they can be annoying when all they do is poison you lol

Does wrestling actually do anything for the template?
@@xenokronwicked yes Will make you do not get hit by dexxers and whit tracking Will give you hamstring
You are going to the BLUE zerg....😢 We are going to see each other a Lot. When you finish this char lets duel. Kisses Botan
