On this page, you will find out the best PvE talent choices and builds for your Fire Mage in WoW Forever.
Fire Mage Talent Builds for World of Warcraft: Forever
For dungeons and raids, there are two different Fire builds. For AOE encounters,
we would recommend the
Frostfire Bolt build as it posesses a near even mix of
Fire and Frost talents which allows for the use of Fingers of Frost and Shatter which
creates insane burst potential. The other is the Deep Fire build that goes all the way
down to
Combustion, this is our highest single target DPS Fire build which we
would recommend to use for most encounters.
Frostfire Bolt Talent Build
The 22 points in Frost gives you
Fingers of Frost for a 15%
which treats your next 2 spells cast as if the target were Frozen. In addition,
you gain
Shatter which increases your critical strike chance of all
your spells against frozen targets by 50%. This synergizes perfectly with
Heating Up,
Pyroblast, and
Ignite as you will have
a steady stream of crits. In addition, on longer fights,
Fingers of Frost
will lead to more crits than
Combustion every could.
Most of your time goes into casting
Frostfire Bolt while keeping
Improved Scorch up. You will be using
Fire Blast on Cooldown and
whenever you have 3 stacks of
Heating Up you will prioritize using
Pyroblast on the target. When you have
Fingers of Frost up and
Fireblast is off cooldown, make sure to batch it with your current cast so then both
spells benefit from
Shatter which could net you 3 stack of
Heating Up.
Fire Blast guarantees 1 stack of
Heating Up, so if it crits you
will receive 2 stacks.
Fire Arcane Talent Build
The 16 points in Arcane gives you
Arcane Concentration for a 10%
to enter clearcasting which reduces the mana cost of your next damage spell by 100%.
In addition, you gain
Arcane Blast which gives you 15/30/45/60% of your Intellect
as Spell Damage. This build will maintain 1-2 stacks of
Arcane Blast as the bonus
affects all spells, not just Arcane. This build has incredible burst, you can prestack
both
Arcane Blast and
Heating Up going into a fight. When you add in
Combustion to that equation, you will be in for some high-octane gameplay.
Most of your time goes into casting
Fireball while keeping
Improved Scorch and 1-2 stacks of
Arcane Blast up. You will be using
Fire Blast on Cooldown and whenever you have 3 stacks of
Heating Up
you will prioritize using
Pyroblast on the target.
Missile Barrage is
a filler ability like
Fireball so make sure to use it when Fireblast is on
cooldown.
Fire Blast guarantees 1 stack of
Heating Up, so if it crits you
will receive 2 stacks.
