Now, before taking a look at the build, I want to get one thing out of the way - the Frost spec vs Fire spec debate. Which leveling spec is the best for you depends a lot on your unique playing style.

If you want the complex but efficient tactic, go for the frost build.

This mage leveling guide is for people who’d much rather focus on the fire tree.

Unsure which one you prefer? You can test them both and see which one works better for you, then stick to it.

With this out of our way, let’s head over to the leveling spec itself.

This is the order in which I recommend you to spend your talent points:

  • 5 Points in Improved Fireball
  • 5 Points in Ignite
  • 1 Point in Pyroblast
  • 3 Points in World in Flames
  • 2 Points in Burning Determination
  • 3 Points in Improved Scorch
  • 3 Points in Master of Elements
  • 3 Points in Critical Mass
  • 5 Points in Fire Power
  • 1 Point in Combustion
  • 3 Points in Pyromaniac
  • 1 Point in Blast Wave
  • 2 Points in Molten Fury
  • 3 Points in Empowered Fire
  • 1 Point in Dragons Breath
  • 3 Points in Hot Streak
  • 1 Point in Firestarter
  • 5 Points in Burnout
  • 1 Point in Living Bomb

With the fire tree maxed out, invest in some more minor important fire talents and then get some Arcane to improve your crit chances.

  • 3 Points in Incineration
  • 1 Point in Fire Starter
  • 2 Points in Arcane Subtlety
  • 3 Points in Arcane Focus
  • 5 Points in Arcane Concentration
  • 3 Points in Spell Impact
  • 3 Points in Student of the Mind

The fire mage is best for players who don’t want to concentrate and focus all the time. It’s straight forward hit-them-with-a-club style play.

Since a fire mage will not fight many mobs at the same time, he will get overwhelmed less often. This can indeed be helpful with mage leveling.

One more thing though:

Even though, you’re a fearsome fire mage, don’t hesitate to use frost spells when it makes sense. I like to view spells as tools and if the opportunity arises, I love to use Blink or Frost Nova to immobilize my foes and get away.

For fast leveling I recommend the following strategy:

Mount up and pull about five then Frostnova them and get some distance with Blink. Now nuke them down with your AoE spells: Arcane Explosion, Blast Wave and Dragons Breath.
