I've never soloed with a mage (or any other class for that matter), but I'm finding with my four specialist mage, cleric, mage-thief party that you have to rest all the damn time! The upside is that there is some bonafide excitement in the battles, even the routine ones. I mean I barely make it by the skin of my teeth in some of these fights. So far I have picked my fights very carefully right along the Trade Way. I just reached level 2, and rep and cash continue to grow at a good rate. But as I said, because of the low number of spell slots and the need to sleep all the time it is rather slow going. I really do like playing with these mages though. I'm playing Dark Side and really look forward to when they're casting level 6-9 spells (well, as high as I can get them anyway).
