Fire Mage PvP Talents and Builds — 12.0.5

• Temporal Realignment is an amazing defensive passive. When dropped below 25% health, you cast Alter Time and instantly return to 50% health. This is great for preserving Cauterize and preventing you from using Ice Block when teams focus you.
• Dragon's Breath: One of the strongest offensive crowd control abilities in the game; use this to setup crowd control on multiples enemies with Polymorph or Ring of Frost.
• Inspired Intellect, Tome of Rhonin, Charm of Aegwynn, and Charm of Medivh are all small modifiers to stats that help greatly in arena.
• Alter Time, Blazing Barrier/ Improved Blazing Barrier, and Mass Invisibility are all great defensives offered in the Mage Tree.

• Fire Blast is your primary damage ability. This spell will always deal a critical strike, resulting in more Heating Up and Hot Streak procs.
• Firestarter makes your Fireball and Pyroblast always critical strike on targets above 90% health. This is a great way to start ramping up your damage or do hard swaps to targets that are not expecting it.
• Fevered Incantation: A mighty stacking damage increase for hitting critical strikes consecutively.
• Combustion is your primary burst cooldown. This increases your spells' critical strike chance by 100% while it is active. In addition to this affect, there are several other talents that increase your damage while Combustion is active:
  • Spontaneous Combustion refreshes a charge of Fire Blast after using Combustion.
  • Kindling reduces the cooldown of Combustion by 60 seconds. This is great for making it difficult for enemies to line up trinkets with your burst damage.
  • While Combustion is active, Fiery Rush makes it so Fire Blast and Phoenix Flames recharge 50% faster.

This is the recommended build for battleground blitz. This has everything you need for slowing enemies and dealing as much damage as possible.
