Lvl 70 all around fire buildFollow

#1 Oct 21 2007 at 2:15 PM Rating: Decent
So I've been messing around with some builds to see what I like and came up with http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/classes/mage/talents.html?2302500312200110000000005503201230303125310000000000000000000000000

As a 70 mage only a few weeks old I'm doing just about everything in the game i can do. Need G for mats.... need to farm for mats.. running things up to kara for gear and rep. Plus wanna get some PvP gear so doin some BGs and arenas too.

I know this is just a spin off of some other builds but tell me what you think. I can do the damage I need for kara but the imp CS and PoM gives me some good options in PvP. Still sucks compared to frost on small teams but I do ok. I have the battlecast set and spellfire set with a few other epics i've picked up.

First I would drop wand spec because it is possibly the stupidest talent ever.
Arcane fortitude seems great in theory but it doesn't really help in the long run it's a useless talent.
I'd suggest taking all your points in arcane fortitude and wand spec and putting them in imp Arcane missiles because AM is a good spell for beating down casters
otherwise I see nothing wrong with it

If you want to have good PVP options and still do small raids like kara and 5 mans go with this build
Quote:
33 Arcane - Deeper PvE or "Big crits to pull aggro off the tank."

Arcane Subtlety - 2/2
Arcane Focus - 3/5
Magic Absorbtion - 3/5
Arcane Concentration - 5/5
Arcane Impact - 3/3
Improved Counterspell - 2/2
Arcane Meditation - 3/3
Presence of Mind - 1/1
Arcane Mind - 5/5
Arcane Instability - 3/3
Arcane Power - 1/1
Spell Power - 2/2

Again, Concentration is key here, Arcane Mind to beef up that mana pool and my all time favorite talent, Instability adding crit and damage. A solid PvE spec with big numbers. Another option with this spec is to drop Meditation and get Potency.

along with this

Quote:
28 Fire - Use with 33 Arcane or "Dial 1-900-Crit-Alot"

Improved Fireball - 5/5
Ignite - 5/5
Flame Throwing - 2/2
Incineration - 2/2
Pyroblast - 1/1
Burning Soul - 2/2
Master of Elements - 3/3
Playing with Fire - 2/3
Critical Mass - 3/3
Fire Power - 3/5

Continuation of the 21 build, nice when used with 33 Arcane, centers around lots of crits from both trees. Very strong burst as well, I like this one in 5 man dungeons and smaller raids, like Karazhan.

dont thank me thank poldaran for sending this to me and also thank warlord filterspawns post on the mage.
