[Post-BB] Mage Builds

But...Elquines doesn't do anything useful besides damage. It's not like there's a whole other type of playstyle that it promotes, it just freezes stuff that should already be stunned with Teleport because you have to get right next to stuff for it to attack.

There is no point in arguing which one is more useless. We both agree the 3 summons don't worth any SPs post BB.

I don't use the playing style you described on page 1 against high level mobs i.e. "Mage killing style is mostly initiating mobs with your attack skills, then immediately telecasting by. It will mostly be finishing off monsters as you teleport past them.". I don't like getting KB so I always freeze/seal first (if I know I am gonna get hit), kill, telecast to next mobs. I don't use teleport as a finisher.
