I've been playing the Fat/Tank/Plate Mage since Beta, that is my main and I haven't really played melee. I stopped playing just before the Combat Ability patch come out. Reason: The club combat abilities that outright cancel my build. That and coupled with some other reasons.

I admit that recently the Tank Mage became too tanky. There were situations that made it almost unkillable. I came back to see that the club abilities auto interrupt spell casting. This seems like a killing blow to a mage. In a PvP situation losing 1 or 2 spell castings means the difference between life and death.

So my question is: What is the actual meta like right now for a Fat/Tank/Plate Mage?
