In my experience with mages, they are very auto attack centric. You need to shoot a lot with double wands from a distance to shred the magic armour to a point where you can nuke it in one blow and apply conditions.
Torturer and Salvage Sortilage are must have talents to be a good elemental mage, because critical strikes are more likely to happen than you being positioned on high ground while the oponent is positioned on low ground.
It would also be a huge advantage if you can wear a suit of hulking plate armor and a staff overchared with great elemental powers...but that is not mandatory....you could probably make do with wearing a stilish gambeson or leather jacket (both are medium armours,got it?) a couple of wands and start altertaining between auto attacking, healing and throwing huge rocks covered in oil.
If you get wands with rune slots as well as oil and frost runes,you should be the happiest man.
