I've been playing my pure Mage Character (not even a staff) and Its been great. I just got my conjuration to 100 and with my thralls I don't even need to waste time summoning fresh dremora lords (unless the enemies are too tough). Magic and Magic Regen with the proper equipment makes this a viable option, much improved from oblivion.
With +250 % Magika Regeneration and plus 100ish Mana (total 550) its been great
