Its been a while now since the mages had there talent review in world of warcraft, and its not been a bad review in my opinion.

But I kinda not that impressed with the build I made on the previous post I made on this blog, for end game I thought it would be a great build after speaking to a fellow mage in game about it, and although it was significantly different from the build I made I looked it over and it seemed much better.

I have some nice gear in my opinion, got tier 1 (Arcanist Regalia) on shoulders, belt, boots, gloves, robes, and tier 2 (Netherwind Regalia) on crown, pants and finally my wrists are from Zul’Grub (Illusionist’s Attire).

I have been finding that on the adds at General Drakkisath in UBRS, my frostbolt gets resist so much, like i’ll hit something like once every 3 or 4 casts, the rest of the time it gets fully resisted, which I think its a bit rubbish really since that the fireball spell can be partially resisted but the frostbolt can’t, I questioned about it being a bug but a GM told me no that it was meant to be like that.

So anyway i’m considering respeccing once again, especially when I am always last on the damage meters but my gear isn’t that much different from the other mages in my raid group.

I’m thinking of leaving some points in a lot of what I have now, but moving a few points around in the frost tree.

This is my current mage build.

What I am considering move around is losing improved frost nova and permafrost altogether purely cause there not that much use to me in end game raiding, Frostbite isn’t that much use either, however saying that I like Frostbite its good for soloing, so I will be keeping that. I have also remove 2 points from Improved Blizzard it only added a chill effect to blizzard, and removing 2 points keeps the chill effect but only slows movement speed to 50% which I think is still good, that frees up 7 points which was what I was looking for, I think those 7 points should be spent as follows 2 points in Elemental Precision and 5 points in Ice Shards, I’ve also dropped 1 point from Arcane Focus and put it in Wand Specialization.

This is my revised mage build.
