Finally got around to crafting my spellfire robe and now I need to get it enchanted. I come to you all knowing mages with the question of which enchant to get? Because I feel my mana pool is lacking I was leaning towards the +65 mana enchant, but perhaps it would be a better choice to get the +3stats?

Please help me superior magi!

Those are some cheap enchants you're looking at. Go with 6 stats or 6 mp5. Maybe 150 health.

I didnt even see the +6stats lol, its in the midddle of the page and i scrolled all the way down. Teach me to read the whole page and not just skim.
Thanks for the responses, i'll probably get the mp5.

In general, I'd say +6 all stats is best for a mage chest.

Tho if you are really having mana issues, go for mp5.

The +6 Stats enchant effectively only offers +6 Spirit/Intellect for raiding, as stamina is relatively useless there. That is, if you catch aggro from a boss or trash mob, you will be one-shotted regardless of your stamina unless you ice block in time. That said, I don't think the bonus of 6 spirit/intellect compares to the 6mp5 enchant due to the fact that you will only need the extra mana in boss fights as you will be drinking after each pull to refill your mana. That being the case, 6 MP5 gets you more mana than 6 intellect if the boss fight is longer than 75 seconds, which it will be. And, as we know, spirit is essentially useless for a mage in combat without Meditation and/or Divine Spirit from a hybrid Priest. I would definitely take the MP5 enchant, and I hope this helps.

Stamina is definitely not useless. The more you progress, the more it becomes something that you really ought to have. BT and Hyjal have a lot of AoE damage and other unavoidable damage flying around.

As Pold mentioned, and because I have no reason while looking at the gear on your mage to believe that you have raided past Kara, you will see past T4 instances that Stamina becomes very important where AoE and damage comes regularly to mages and if you have your 6.5k hp unbuffed that many mages have you will have a difficult time staying up.
