Here's a good tip for mages and arrowstorm capable archers (lvl 73+) that are hunting together.
The tip works because both mages and AS archers can deliver their area attack at a distance, unlike HK's necten/demon hunter and warriors' earth pit/freeze, all of which only affect the area surrounding the char.
Both chars should stand a little apart (best is the maximum range of each one's attack), and each one aims at the other one, while other party members can mob. For the mage-the spells could be any of the elemental attacks, since they can all be delivered to a large area at a distance away from the character.
Result? The mobs get confused, keep moving between the 2 chars without attacking either of them, and die faster.
A nice and simple trick shown to me by Cutedevil and Bellona (both 8x mages), though I'm sure other higher mages might be yawning at this now!

USED THIS IN CARODE LOL
MAGES MAKE GROUPS OF 4 AND ATTACK, THIS INCREASES THE MOBS AROUND U BUT U STILL GET BITTEN.
BUT R3 IS GOOD FOR THIS, JUST 1 MAGE WITH DB AND HE IS SURROUNDED BY NOOBS OR OTHERS. THE MONSTERS CANT GET TO THE MAGE AND RARELY BITE OR BITE THE NOOBS.

YES ATTACKING EACH OTHERS MOBS IS GOOD BUT BE CAREFUL NOT TO CHAT, BECAUSE MOVING THE CURSOR A BIT CAN REDIRECT THE SPELL AND U'LL GET KILLED. BUT THIS IS USELESS WHEN THERE ARE ES MONSTERS AS THEY WON'T CHANGE THEIR TARGET.
