Recommed Mage Leveling Build

[liri5]

I just made a mage beause i think they are fun to level,pvp,raids etc.
I am still not sure what spec to use for leveling and if i should pick frost instead of fire .

So pleas help me out here by posting some nice spec's ^^

Thx

Generally frost is considered the best all around leveling spec because of survivability and control which is good for questing. Plus you can aoe in later levels on certain quests.

Fire does more direct single target dps but lacks frost barrier and you will drink more with fire.

Personally I did frost all the way up 60 and spec'd between fire and frost in outlands just for the change of pace. They really are both good specs and I would try each out for yourself.

Yea you should go for frost while leveling, and then go frostfire build at lvl 75

I tend to prefer fire, but I know many would disagree. I'd avoid arcane until at least 60.

I like the frost/arcane spec that lets you get arcane meditation. More mana regen = no down time!
