Gathering using mage

OK, so this is probably another rookie dumb dumb question, but...

I use a level 83 mage as my farmer. I specd frost for survivability, BUT it seems GB doesn't play my mage very well. It pretty much spams frostbolt. No IV, MI, IL, anything. Just, freeze em and frostbolt.

I am pretty much a bot virgin, but is there any thing I can do to help this?

Thanks for everyone's (seemingly constant) help.

 

Its a CC issue.
Get the amplify CC and configurate it.

 

GB or GB2?

If it's GB, your macro is wrong, if it's GB2 then ya, it's a CC issue

 

Agreed.

And I actually have miner mage too.
Frost + amplify CC = Works well for me.

I used to bot a mage in icc and I found the best thing to do was use set a macro to call your water elemental. You generally wont be getting into combat every node so it usually works out ok. Otherwise just use gb2.

 

Thanks everyone. I'll grab amplify and give it a shot!

 

I love the gb2 combat for frost mages atleast.
