WoW Forever Mage talent calculator

Its Fire Vulnerability no longer rolls a second time to see if it resists.

Now only requires 2 talent points for the same benefit.

This talent has been removed, as it is now combined into the talent Precision in the Frost tree.

Moved from row 1 down to row 2. Resistance-ignoring effect a little stronger and threat reduction to Arcane spells a little weaker.

Now has a 1 second cooldown on triggering the effect.

The penalty to its chance to trigger when casting spells of a low rank is gone. Blizzard continues to have a reduced chance to trigger Arcane Concentration, Frostbite, and Fingers of Frost when casting a rank learned more than 12 levels lower than the caster’s current level.

Moved to the 1st row from the 2nd row (originally row 3). It now allows up to 3 talent points to be spent for a maximum armor increase of 75% of Intellect.

New row 3 talent. Increases the range of Arcane spells.

New 11-point gold medal talent that grants a new spell: immediate damage with a 2.5 second cast, then increases the damage of all other Mage spells and its own Mana cost. Stacks up to 4 times and lasts 18 seconds or until any other spell is cast. Mana cost increase per stack reduced to 100% (was 175%); percent of Intellect as Spell Damage reduced from 15% to 12% per stack.

Formerly Improved Mana Shield. Bigger Mana cost reduction for Mana Shield, and now also increases the resistances granted by Mage Armor.

Slight redesign: with only 1 point it now always grants a shorter-duration Silence, instead of a 50% chance of any Silence at all.

Mana regeneration from Spirit while casting increased. Now requires Arcane Concentration.

Redesigned: increases Intellect instead of maximum Mana and also increases the critical strike damage bonus of Arcane spells. No longer requires Arcane Resilience.

No longer requires Presence of Mind.

Now requires Presence of Mind.

No longer a talent; it is now a baseline ability.

Formerly Incinerate. Moved from row 3 up to row 1. Now increases the critical strike chance of Ice Lance and Arcane Blast, in addition to Fire Blast and Scorch. Now allows spending up to 5 talent points for 10% critical chance on affected spells, up from 3 talent points for 6%.

Renamed Accelerant. Reduces the cast time of Frostfire Bolt and now also that of Arcane Wrath, by up to 0.5 seconds.

Now requires 3 talent points for the same effect.

No longer requires Pyroblast as a pre-requisite.

Renamed Precision and back to being a 3-point talent, granting 2/4/6% chance to hit with all spells (was 1/2/3/4/5%).

Minor redesign: now increases the duration of all Chill effects by 11/22/33% instead of 1/2/3 seconds.

Moved from row 4 up to row 3.

Movement speed Slow reduced: now maxes out at a 40% Slow instead of 65%.

Moved from row 5 up to row 4 and is now the 16-point gold medal talent.

Moved from row 3 down to row 5 and is now the 21-point gold medal talent. Cooldown increased to 10 minutes (was 5 minutes).

New row 5 talent, pre-requisite of Ice Lance. Your Chill effects have a chance to grant 1/2 charges of Fingers of Frost, which makes your spells treat the target as if it were Frozen.

Talent moved to the second row (was the first) and costs 2 talent points. It now also grants a chance for Arcane Missiles hits to trigger Missile Barrage. Fixed: it is now consumed at the start of the Arcane Missiles channel (was consumed at the end). Clearcasting is no longer consumed on Arcane Missiles if Missile Barrage is active at the same time. Fixed: Arcane Missiles did not proc Clearcasting.

Reverted to a maximum of 3 talent points, instead of 5, for a total of 6% critical strike chance increase, down from 10%.

Redesigned: now costs only 3 talent points. Increases damage done by Fire spells by 1/2/3% per the Mage's Fire effects on the target, up to a maximum increase of 12%. Spells that mix multiple schools of magic do not grant this bonus.

Redesigned: no longer increases critical strike chance. It now gives your Frostbolt and Fingers of Frost empowered Ice Lance spells a 20/40/60/80/100% chance to apply Winter’s Chill, increasing the damage the target takes from your next Cone of Cold and causing it to gain an additional 7% of your spell damage, stacking up to 5 times. Bonus to Cone of Cold damage increased to 20% per stack.

The talent has been removed. This gives the player a few more talents to play around with early on in the tree.

Now increases your Frost Damage dealt by 15% for 1 minute when activated and grants an additional 5% Frost Damage while the barrier holds. This gives the Mage a reason to go all the way down the tree for PvE.

Increases the amount of damage your Ice Barrier and Frost Wards can absorb. No longer has a chance to Reflect spells but instead has a chance to fully negate the damage of the spell without depleting the Frost Ward.
