Tactics[]
Nether-Mages can spawn in three types: fire, frost, or arcane. The type of mage may be determined by looking at their self-buff; each uses a damage buff of its particular school, as well as two different AOEs of that school. For example a fire mage has a self-cast buff that grants +350 fire spell power. These buffs may be stolen to boost your mages' damage and reduce the damage dealt by the mob. Furthermore, all Nether-Mages can use Blink to move to a random player, although it does not appear to be an aggro drop. They are vulnerable to sheeping and fear. They are immune to Hammer of Justice and 
[Curse of Tongues].
With the exception of the channeled 
[Rain of Fire] none of their abilities have cast times. However, they cannot cast while feared, and can be chain feared rather than tanked to prevent casting.
They are also immune to 
[Sap] and 
[Mind Control].
