Mage spells 1-20


     these are the abilities you will obtain as you level. I will tell you how to use them for leveling and endgame content.

  • lvl 1
      • how to use: your basic nuke, at low levels you will want to use this in a rotation with arcane missiles, fire blast and frostbolt. At high levels it will be your primary nuke for fire spec.
  • lvl 3
      • how to use: this will be part of your low level rotation. At high levels, you will use this in a rotation with your other arcane abilities
  • lvl 5
      • how to use: part of your low level rotation. Part of your fire spec's high level rotation.

  • lvl 7
      • how to use: your primary nuke for frost. Part of you low level rotation.
  • lvl 8
      • how to use: your first crowd control. Use this your surrounded by opponents.
  • lvl 9
      • how to use: your basic interrupt. Use this against casting opponents.
  • lvl 12
      • how to use: a spell that will give you back 60% of your mana, use this when ever it's cooldown is down.
  • lvl 14
      • how to use: you basic crowd control, use this on you opponents
  • Lvl 16
      • how to use: your basic escape spell.
  • lvl 18
      • how to use: your first area of effect(aoe) spell, a crowd control and damage spell.

     a word on talents: I think that frost is still the best leveling spec for mages. In fact, leveling as frost has never been easer. That is due to getting the water elemental. It's freeze ability makes it easer to mow down mobs. You wont get killed as much and frost does not burn though mana as much, so you downtime will be minimal. This is what your frost spec should look like when you are level 20. But if you want, you can also level as fire. Fire burns though mana really fast, so you will spend a lot of time drinking, which is downtime. This is what you fire spec should like at level 20. I don't recommend that you level as arcane, because you don't have its nuke yet. Before level 20, you will have trouble leveling as arcane. However, if you really want to level as arcane, go right ahead. This is what your arcane spec should look like when you are level 20.
