Mage, high mana consumption with no way to mitigate it.

As the title says, the Mage has a very high mana usage and there is no viable way to mitigate this other than mana on kill. There is no type of mana leech on equipment (so far I have not seen any equipment that has mana leech on hit for a spell). Mage is complete garbage, I can't use more than 2 spells without consuming all my mana (which is at 1147 at the moment). Another very strange thing is the fact that Mage cannot put runes on his weapons. I don't know what GGG wants regarding Mage, but he is very far from the other characters, both in damage and defense.

Arcane surge, lots of mana regen on gear, mana recoup.
What is your mana recovery like? Because that is your mitigation. There is also a bit of lower cost scatter around the skill tree, but crank your regeneration up and that should pretty much solve it.

I've basically gotten almost all the mana regen rate nodes I could and it's still not enough and I also have Arcane Surge (I got it on my ascension). As I said, my character is running out of mana with a maximum of 2~3 skill uses. I've died several times when I run out of mana and can't deal damage to the monsters, especially in the ritual. As I said, the only viable way to get mana is through mana on kill, the rest is not enough against a horde of monsters.
