I actually disagree about gale force, it has a combo bonus with fireball, charge fireball and follow it up with galeforce and u have yourself a pretty little bonus, which then its no longer splitting up mobs, most are knocked down by fb. My mage is pretty tough, I have 5 on fireball, 5 on gale force, 5 on light, and five on heal, then im about 20% on dex, 20% on strength, and 60% int. My dps sits at 317.5, with a critical chance of 23%  and dodge barely over 25%, with critical damage well over 250%, u want to have a high critical chance sence all your damaging skills have +damage on critical hit, u can easily have 2000 damage on a critical hit with lightning skill. And as a pet I prefer malison, I know hes hard to find or bye but he ups all three stats bye 20 plus like 10% critical, and so on, but hes really good for mage sence we have lower hp and defences.

P. S. Galeforce is also good for the mage sence u dont need damage input, using fireball wont knock everyone down when soloing, so if followed by gf, the rest or atleast most are knocked back and down, while u finish of who the fireball does get.
