If I were to level up again, I'd go with this build: Arcane Talents (21 points) # Improved Arcane Missiles - 5/5 points # Arcane Concentration - 5/5 points # Evocation - 1/1 point # Improved Arcane Explosion - 5/5 points # Arcane Meditation - 4/5 points # Presence of Mind - 1/1 point Frost Talents (0 points) # None Fire Talents (30 points) # Improved Fireball - 5/5 points # Impact - 5/5 points # Flame Throwing - 2/2 points # Ignite - 5/5 points # Improved Fire Blast - 1/5 point # Burning Soul - 3/3 points # Pyroblast - 1/1 point # Critical Mass - 3/3 points # Fire Power - 5/5 points The only important thing is to have all 5 points in improved arcane explosion by about level 35. I'd probably go improved fireball, flame throwing, a point in improved fire blast, then start on the arcane tree through evocation and improved arcane explosion. Its up to you from there. |
Ding! (Grats!) Posts: 30 Joined: 24 Mar 2004 | Thanks for the reply just like i was hoping sounds a good build :) but 1 thing about what you say... why is it eneded 5 points in arcane explosion by level 35? |
Master Looter Posts: 2159 Joined: 30 Mar 2004 | Level 35 is about when you start getting serious doing instances, and one of a mage's most important jobs is doing AE in instances since no other classes do it well. This greatly increases a mage's AE ability so is extremely useful when you start doing more difficult instances. |

In maraudon I just combust Aoe...fireblast is fast cool down same with scorch....I love it...dragon ball z mage >.> <,< I burn through 5k mana in one group pull but they all die fast. Arcane/fire is good spec for mana management and still having the punch fire offers. Purely Dammage is all Fire...With fire set on. Very very nasty dammage......after fireball,blast,scorch done in few seconds. I found Reviths build to be O.K. but Full Fire is great for me since I want to lay down the law in pvp. Improved scorch,fireblast and that improved fire dot......goes a llong way. But with this build you invest in Major Mana potions since you dont have the arcane line. But I respeced over 5 times now. And I tried full arcane...arcane/fire ...arcane/ice ...full ice....now on full fire. Fire all the way for me. I dunno just my style of play. My fire aoe does about 500 ....it ticks for about 53 dmg a tick. Once I get more of the dmg boost on the ticks im sure it will do near 80 a tick. Nova + Fire Aoe on a group= Ouch. I plan on putting 5 in Ice effect talent to improve my nova but thats it. Eq2-burned the Dvd |

Hey,
Played WoW once before at the begining of Euro release for 2 month but stoped playing due to different reasons. Well i am returning tomorrow and going to play the class i like most in game mages :)
Well my question is what is the current talent build to use level 10-60 to level fast[ish] :) Is it fire or frost or...? If anyone could help me out with this or even maybe link/supply a good leveling talent build or advice pelase, Id really appritiate it.
Thanks,
