On this page, you will find out the best PvE talent choices and builds for your Frost Mage in WoW Forever.
Frost Mage Talent Builds for World of Warcraft: Forever
Frost Mage has a variety of different builds both for different playstyles and scenarios. The spec has a lot more utility than the other Mage specs, who are built for raw damage. This gives you more options and opportunities to play around scenarios such as area-of-effect farming, surviving more risky plays, and the occasional skirmish on PvP servers.
Deep Frost Build
Building a proper Frost tree is quite point-heavy, and a lot of the talents interact with each other in some way. This 11/0/40 build picks up most of the utility and DPS talents from Frost, making it useful for general overworld play, dungeons, and more. This build sacrifices some DPS and Mana management for this flexibility, however.
Cone-of-Cold Raiding Build
This 19/0/32 build intended for end-game raiding takes all 8 points in
Improved Cone of Cold and
Winter's Chill to build stacks on enemies and pop them. It drops various utility that won't apply in
raids, such as
Frostbite, so you'll be relying solely on
Fingers of Frost procs.
It also picks up
Arcane Meditation in the fourth row of Arcane. If you find that you have
a comfortable amount of Mana, you can slowly take points away from
Arcane Meditation and
Arcane Concentration and add them to
Arcane Impact and
Incineration,
in that order, for a minor DPS gain.
