1. yes , most of bazaar equipment is from lvl 400+ , finding good equipment at low lvl is very hard now (IMG:[

2. you should use melee at low lvl , mage is better when your lvl at least reach 310 ~ imperil x3 ~ but I think it's better when you reach 350+ to use mage style (IMG:[

3. err , reduce your STR than increase DEX and AGI (IMG:[

you should use 1 type of phase suffix ~ do not use fenrir + mjolnir + niflheim (IMG:[

use all fenrir and combine it with demon fiend cotton prof (IMG:[

blast imperil than use disintegrate > corruption
but you maybe need to increase your depre prof first (IMG:[

btw , increase your AL (IMG:[

1. Yes I noticed. It wasn't always like this though. Its definitely not a change I appreciate.
2. Look at my proficiencies, I've been a mage from the very beginning (few years) because it was an option. I kind of feel like its a bit late to switch to melee now, given that I have absolutely no proficiencies in it - and cannot acquire any decent melee gear through the bazaar.
With the new persona system I went for a two handed, heavy armor melee but I get obliterated by the high level mobs while I have no profs.
3. The unmatching phase suffix is due to issue #1 with Bazaar EQ being useless since the update. (IMG:[

'Blast imperil, then use disintegrate > corruption': I only have smite, imperil isn't unlocked yet I guess.

Oh my...you sunk something about 20 or 30m on trainings and you have still exq (half unmatching) equipment...what? (IMG:[

Because the Bazaar sells only equipment I cannot equip due to level requirements.
I could have a billion credits and would still be stuck with the same gear due to the fact that any good gear found in the bazaar can never be equipped until you're 400+ (which I am not).
And I am virtually never in the forums (IMG:[

style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) there's no trade option inside the game itself so I never did any community buying stuff, if at all possible.

any specific reason to go maging at your level?
also, don't sink anymore credits on Assimilator or Manifest Destiny
I've always played a mage in any game I've played. With mage being an option, I went mage from the very beginning. (As you can probably tell from my proficiencies).
I started playing a few years ago and assumed that any class is a viable option at any level.
