Thread: mages in 4.0 why you even need them ?

I always suggested Surecast to be changed to be a spell making the caster able to move while casting the next spell every 30 seconds. They said they were removing useless abilities, but they "buffed" surecast so you can't get interupted by stuns or knockbacks, yet every mechanic that knocks you back, still does even with the spell on. SE, please? ._.

It works whenever I pop it on Sophia and dance while the rest of the raid falls off the platform.
