The mountains south of [[Stonetalon Peak]] now open into '''Battlescar Valley''', where the [[Horde]] and [[Alliance]] are at constant war with one another.<ref>[http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=19377467311&sid=1 Frejya's (MVP) Cataclysm Compilation]</ref>

As with the other original classes, at level 10 a mage can begin spending [[talent points]] in order to gain and improve abilities. '''Mage talents''' underwent a significant review for patch 1.11, with additional modifications in 2.0.1 and 3.0.2.
 
   
  +
The forces of nearby [[Farwatcher's Glen]] are locked in combat with those of [[Krom'gar Fortress]] here. Notably, the Alliance ranks include [[night elf]] [[mage]]s who fight alongside such conventional forces as the {{npc||Battlescar Ancient}}s.
−
Below, each talent has a quoted description of the talent, which was taken from the game. The differences between the various levels of each talent are quoted in brackets. For example, "Reduces the chance that the opponent can resist your Arcane spells by {2/4/6/8/10}%" to describe the 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 point variations of the talent.

All tier '''N''' talents require that you spend '''5(N-1)''' talent points in their tree as a prerequisite. For example, to get a Tier 2 Arcane talent, you must first have spent at least 5 points on other Arcane talents, Tier 3 requires 10 points, etc.

== Notable talents ==
 
−
* Arcane Concentration gives you a chance to enter a [[Clearcasting]] state, improving your mana efficiency by about 10%. When you [[proc]] Clearcasting, take the opportunity to cast a mana expensive spell.
 
−
* Pyroblast is the highest single target damage spell available, but is limited by its long casting time.
 
−
* Ice Shards, Frostbite and Shatter are the holy trinity of Shatter/critical hit Frost mage build, giving you a 50% bonus to [[crit]] a frozen target. They can now all be maxed with only 20 points in Frost. Also, Shatter now affects all your spells, not just Frost spells, giving additional flexibility to Shatter builds.
 
−
* Ice Block is a very situational ability with a number of uses. As of patch 2.3.2 Ice Block is trainable to any mage at the level of 30. See main article for details: [[Ice Block]].
 
−
* The tier 7 Frost talent [[Ice Barrier]] is potentially much more efficient than [[Mana Shield]]. In [[Patch 1.11]] its cooldown was reduced to 30 seconds, making it much more useful. Its functionality and mana efficiency are similar to a self-cast version of a priest's [[Power Word: Shield]].
