MOVE #1
The Goblin Mage has two abilities
* Homing magic projectile that deals massive damage and a strong movement speed debuff
* AoE buff to nearby monsters with a very long cast time


The Goblin Mage's only damaging ability is a homing, magic damage based projectile that the Mage lobs towards players.
'''Magic Projectile''':
 
* While at Range:
The projectile inflicts huge magic damage (~60?) and a debilitating slow. The projectile can be hard to dodge even for experienced players, especially at closer ranges. Common strategies are:
** Simply strafe left or right.
 
** (Observation?) The projectile biases in a right-handed circle, so strafing left while at range might be the easiest way to avoid it.
Strafe at a medium-close range when the Mage begins to charge the spell 
* While in Melee:
 
** The projectile will never hit a player crouched directly in front of the mage.
OR Retreat to a medium-long range as the mage is casting the spell 
 
OR Jump the projectile when it nears the end of its trajectory.  
 
 
 
 
MOVE #2
 
A spell that buffs nearby Goblins, telegraphed by the Mage raising its staff in the air. The cast time is absurdly long and can't be interrupted, allowing players a huge window to easily dispatch of the Mage.
