This loot list is dedicated for helping you gear up your mage as best as possible. This list includes all Azeroth (pre-Burning
Crusade) loot up to patch 2.3, but no end-game content or Outland gear. The list is split into the following parts:
Please note: This list is by no means a "mage's have exclusive rights to this" equip list. Please be considerate of
your group members and respect loot rules. Priests and warlocks will want to roll on many of the items listed here, please be
mindful of gear that would most likely better serve them (ie +healing / +shadow).
New for 1.10, the Sorcerer's mage set is obtained by completing a long series of quests
which will upgrade your Magister's set. You will need the corresponding magister set piece for each step in the upgrade process.
Early on Arcane is seen by many as a utlity tree, with ability boosting talents lacking the raw damage of fire or frost. However,
as the Arcane tree builds momentium it gains a great deal of burst damage talents which mesh very well towards the end of your
1-70 journey with the Frost tree. The decision post-60 to go deep Arcane or go hybrid Arcane/Frost are both very viable soloing
options.
Large damage make this a very popular leveling tree for aspiring Mages. Fire is low on survivability / escape options, but gains
some powerful AoE and excellent single target DPS. If being a glass cannon is what you're looking for this is the tree for you.
Frost brings great control / survivability and decent which makes this tree another very popular choice with leveling Mages.
Virtual every Frost build picks up the 41-point Water Elemental talent which makes an excellent pet on a short cooldown.
