Alright, I read the stickies. I googled. Lurked the Mage forum. I can say I did my due diligence and I will be rolling a Worgen Mage come Cataclysm. However, it is the only class I have never played. I am typically a melee-orientated player. I'd prefer to bash you in the face with a mace or cleave you in half with a sword. So, waving my fingers about in the air and casting fireballs isn't exactly my forte, but Worgen Mages look badass and that pretty much settles it for me.
However, I've seen very mixed opinions (especially after 4.0.x), on what is a good leveling spec. It seems to come down to Arcane or Fire, but which one is the "quicker" one for soloing? (Not that I won't be grouping, but with my schedule soloing happens a lot too).
Please help a (soon to be) nub mage. KTHX.
