Hi there,

I've been thinking about making a 29 mage twink.
When looking at the twinks at realmplayers, it looks to me like most ppl go for spell dmg enchants and spellpower goggles, but at 39 most mage twinks go for stam gear and enchants. Are there a reason for that? Why not use goblin rocket helmet with +100 hp? Just curious:)

Because only gnomes can get the rocket helmet at 20-29 bracket.

If you are alliance and the class you want can be played as a gnome there is no reason not to go gnome. The active racial alone is amazing and also the helmet is an added benefit. You can go full glass fire damage say but it leaves you very vulnerable and the base damage on spells is rather low almost requiring you to do this to output any good damage. A lot of the main twinks like rogues or hunters just health stack and also deal great damage; its just the volatility of the classes at the level. So essentially find out if you want to do crazy damage (imo mages are not good for this unless you have backup) or go more of a frost utility spec and just poly, CS and slow all the time which is imo the best role for mages at 29.

Very informative. Thank you!

There are a few good reasons, including not wanting to be used as a living buttplug. Go dwarf, their girth protects them.

TTK is generally higher in 29 than 39. No PoD warriors n stuff. There are some exceptions and building to be squishy is one of them, but base spell damage is generally too and 20+ scaling is all equal to 60 with one or two exceptions. Base spell damage vs average balanced build HP is pretty much the best it will ever be at 29. You build squishy for damage, tanky for support/FC, but you don't get imba 15s spammable CCs, extreme damage and survivability at the same time here. Cept for hunters, minus the CC. Also SP librams less than half the cost of HP.

Even rogues have tradeoffs like being really, really easy to peel. Well, horde rogues anyway. Can't WotF or tremor phowl can ya chumps.

Some good games lately with new faces in 29 bracket. Keep em coming and those who tired of being stomped by premades at 60, make your twink and make it count!
