Hey folks, I've read the two sticky posts for mage info already, but didn't find a good answer (maybe it was too much info and I missed it).
Anyway, first time mage, but definately not new to WoW. My mage is an awesome lvl 8 right now :P, and will soon be able to start allocating talent points.
Most build I've seen are end game pvp/raid builds, etc. I'm thinking about doing an AoE blizzard spec when I hit lvl 40 or so.
In the meantime, though, what is the preferred cookie-cutter leveling build/path until about lvl 40. Frost, Fire, or Arcane. Respeccing is no big deal once I hit higher levels, as making the money for it isn't a big deal.
It'll be primarily leveling work, with a few instances here and there. Input is appreciated, thanks.
