some advice for a newbie mage at wow?

[Ricky]

Hi guys, I recently started playing WoW after being a runescape player for 6years. I have chosen the Mage Human combo and currently am lvl 7. I was looking for some tips and advice on how to train etc. is it best to just carry on doing quests for now? and also armour etc thanks. oh and p.s how do I increase intellect and spirit etc. thanks

Quests. You gear yourself doing quests. You get spirit/intellect from gear from quests. Also, when you can, lfg for a dungeon to get better gear.

Use the Frost Spec. It helps slow down your enemys before they get to you. And as a clothie you want that. You need that. Or if your so new play a hunter or a paladin because they are extremely easy and quick to level. I haven't played in a year and a half so it may have changed. Download a quest helper add-on to help you level. It makes leveling very easy but takes the fun out of finding quest objectives the old fashion way if you like doing that. You could also quest with a friend if you can get one into WoW. You'll find out the ropes as you go believe me on that one.

Here's the best advice for the game you will ever get: don't play it

Leave WOW to the lvl 85s

Make sure you spec frost for when your leveling because in frost you will never get hit with your constant freezes and your water elemental. Also, when you hit level 15 you can que for a dungeon, which will also give you more experience. Quests are your fastest way to level, and if your ever stuck and dont know where to go, you can always look at the hero's call board right in the middle of Stormwind, which will tell you where you should be questing. As a mage it would also be usefull to pick up the tailoring profession, because it will help u get gear throughout the game.
