Which should I reroll, mage or priest?

I've played a melee character all my life, (rogues and warriors), and now I want to try something else. I was thinking either a mage or priest, but not sure which one. I'd like the class to be good at PvP, mages seem good in PvP and they seem like a fun class. I'm so far leaning towards a mage, but I am somewhat intrigued by the priest class, I'd like to be able to do damage and heal others when I'm bored, just don't know which to pick.

No matter which you choose, it's going to be a certain period of adjustment for you as you go from thinking like a melee player to thinking like a caster class. Both the mage and priest have their strong sides and both take a certain amount of finesse. Timing is key to their survival and you need to know where all your tricks are (no matter which class) and know when to use them. Though, I'm sure there are many people who can point you in the best direction to find the information you would need should you choose one or the other.

Slow day at the office? I am liking all your little tips and tricks and stuff this morning though. =D


It's never slow here. You just have to make time for other people though. :)
