Frost Mage PvP Guide (Shadowlands 9.0.5)

Frost Mages are typically one of the best specs in PvP. Mages not only excel at getting crowd control and relentlessly slowing enemies, but they also have great burst damage. With short burst cooldowns and strong crowd control, Frost Mages are capable of controlling entire teams. One Polymorph can turn an entire game around.

• Great control
• Multiple defensive cooldowns
• Strong burst damage
• Relatively strong sustained damage

• Forced to cast most abilities
• Predictable burst damage
• Low Durability when out of cooldowns
