Mage primary archetype combined with Mage secondary is an Archwizard class.^[1]

A Mage/Mage is basically a pure mage... There is a benefit of course: you're giving up something by choosing that kind of flexibility [over] whatever role that another subclass can provide.^[2] – Jeffrey Bard

Archwizard is... going to double down on the role of that mage class. It's going to be something that depending on how you choose spec out your skills... They're going to be highly focused in this DPS magical DPS elemental damage. You're going to have high mobility the ability to kind of teleport around the battlefield. You're going to have CC capabilities. You're going to be in tune with the ability for you to empower your spell's with with certain types of damage that can be beneficial for certain types of encounters.^[3] – Steven Sharif

Mage augments

Mages will offer four magical schools of augmentation, such as teleportation, fire, frost, and lightning (electrical).^[38]^[39]^[40]

Say for instance, I am a Ranger that has a Charge bolt ability as my primary active skill and I've chosen Mage as my secondary and applied the elemental to it. I now have a Frost charge bolt, and if I fire that frostbolt and hit a target, they may be freezing for a period of time as a debuff and that might slow their speed. If a wizard applies a nuke on a target and that nuke is a frost-based nuke, those two stacking elements might then either further snare (slow the target) or paralyze and freeze the target. So, there are combination out effects that build up: A primary, secondary and some ancillary effect occurs when those are combined.^[40] – Steven Sharif

There's going to be four schools of augmentation for each archetype. One of the schools for the mage is the teleport school. You can take that teleport augment, apply it to your charge skill: now instead of charging x distance over time you're going to immediately teleport to the target dealing x damage and a condition modifier. If you were to apply the elemental school to your class ability you would then instead you would charge x distance; upon reaching target you would set the target ablaze if it's fire or you would electrocute them and deal with damage over time.^[38] – Steven Sharif
