At the valdis fight I set up heal instead of nourish, (I needed instant get-ups) and microed it, but I don't usually micro heals. I mostly set up two nourishes and let it fly.

I micro summons (not that much of a problem, especially if i use a widescreen resolution) and curses.

I generally set up attack spells to have the same casting time (exception is cold snap).

Favorites are fast cast spells. They let me do a precise strike and move out of the retaliation, and generally have higher DPS than icebolt/firebolt as I casf more of them. They are cold snap, frost beam, ripple (meh), firespray, embers (costly), static bolt/jolt, grave beam, leech life)

Mana isn't a problem once I have high enough damage, as mana steal lets me get back the costs. If I need something, it's NEVER to wade in with staves (unless I'm playing a crazy druid fist of stone party). I generally drink a potion (though I rarely needed them) or pop a power.

As for multiclassing for survival skill, meh, I can do it later. I can also likely multiclass (at some point) for War Cry and Rune of Sacrifice (thanks to the person here (czovak(sic)?) who pointed it out) as (I think) war cry should work with magic (need to test it though).

I cycle my powers (use energy orb and gravity stone to charge up my power orbs)

One note: my mages are "pure" mages (pur nature xor pure combat)
