    - If facing a DPS warrior, run away and use knock-back skills and freeze to keep them from landing hits on you. They need to be able to land solid hits to gain fury, so if they can't touch you, they can't deal very much damage.
 +
    - If facing a Tank, avoid dealing damage and try to stall until your team can assist you. They gain extra fury from being attacked and will be able to deal damage if you hit them.
 +
- Damage priests often have a wide range of skills that prevents them from having elemental weaknesses. Its best to simply deal as much damage as possible to kill them quickly
 +
- Avoid other mages with the skill disrupt magic. They can smite your casts and leave you silenced.

* Remember to use elements to your advantage! Enchanted wind, water, earth, and fire potions can help block the damage from other mages and warriors with elemental gloves or enchantments. The less damage they deal to you, the more damage you deal to them!
