New Mage - I'm impressedFollow

If you go to armory search for Enigmen, on Spinebreaker. You can see my build which has worked extremely well for leveling, especially with AoE grinding

Frost is a nice way to go. I also have a 55 Undead Frosty Mage. They are fun and have a lot of potential with AoE grinding. Although I have not checked the other builds I am not going to say Frost is the best. But it seems to be a big favorite among a lot of Mages.

Hopefuly you can use wowhead, http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=RZZVVMIsfxowot is what I have currently. It's not the best build ever, however it's suited me pretty well. The only thing I would change if I really wanted to respec is I'd take points out of Winter's Chill and throw them into Elemental Precision.



Unfortunetly I don't agree, but different taste for different people. With my build I can AoE grind, and solo mob grind fairly easy. The fact that you were always dead as frost is really weird, because, frost is about control and survival. I almost never get ganked unless it's a 2-shot. I almost never die to mobs incase something goes wrong, and I rarely use health pots. Plain and simple, I think frost is awesome. But do what you like.

The Index of Mage Guides has several guides that should helpful. In particular, the "Talent Progression Guide".

that build is for aoe grinding only for instances it is not that effective here is my build http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=Rf0zZZVAGIofxoioz its frost with a tiny bit of arcane plan on putting more points into arcane consentration. However i would also reccomend that you give fire a shot once you hit 36-40 because thats when the fire tree is at its prime combustion is great at 40 here is a good fire build for a level 40 http://www.wowhead.com/?talent=kZEg0zbccoho personally i only switched because in Outlands survival is a bit more necessary to grind i plan on switching to 10/48/3 at 70 because i love fire frost is just needed for me at this point.
