Bow of war on a water mage. Cast Quickness and then fire. Improvements to this tactic include:
-nature or air magic to increase precision.
-sacred with a death bless for increased affliction
-same mage or another casting flaming arrows for AP damage

Now that you mention it, MA Oceania would be pretty good at this, as they have Water and Nature on the same mage (Mermage) and a A1 mage to forge the bows with (Sirens on land). Not to mention the fact that with reduced Water magic, the Mermages have limited utility on land, so this might be a good idea for them. Maybe slap an Air-Shield and Luck amulet on them too to keep them safe.
