Talent Build

Talents play a major role in Mythic+ Dungeons. The heatmaps below show how frequently each talent is selected among the top Frost Mages.

  1. Most used talents, strongly recommended!
  2. Frequently used talents, offer flexibility or suit personal preference.
  3. Rarely used talents, usually chosen to unlock deeper rows in the tree.

Talents are temporarily unavailable

Sorry for the inconvenience. The official WoW API is currently not returning character talent data, which also affects Blizzard’s own Armory. See the issue and join the discussion . Hopefully Blizzard will fix this soon.
