What’s New for Fire Mages in The War Within?

Fire Mage has experienced some slight change in our talent trees that make this spec more promising in The War Within. For our class tree, we receive some enhancements to our survivability thanks to Barrier Diffusion, which provides us with more absorb uptime throughout the course of a game. Additionally, Ring of Frost is now on a choice node with Ice Nova, and since we aren’t a Shatter based spec like Frost Mage, we almost always grab Ring of Frost to Crowd Control our opponents using a different spell school.

Now focusing our attention to our spec talents, we have talents such as Flame On and Wildfire that cost a talent point less in order to gain its full effect. This allows us to choose talents we weren’t typically able to pick up in Dragonflight. Additionally, we receive some nice enhancements to Scorch from Heat Shimmer and Scald, making it more worthwhile to use to deal damage when it procs. Lastly, we receive Fire’s Ire, which helps our rotation feel more fluid as we can generate more Hot Streak procs outside of our Combustion windows.

Finally, we have the holy grail of The War Within, and where most of the new talents come from; Hero talents. As a Fire Mage, you have two to choose from. These are Sunfury and Frostfire.

Fire Mage Playstyle

Our rotation is quite different from its Dragonflight counterpart, as it deals damage from our instant Pyroblast casts instead of Flamestrike. The identity of Fire Mage still remains in tact, as we are constantly dealing damage to reduce the cooldown of Combustion for some heavy Ignite cleave. This is due to talents like Kindling and Unleashed Inferno that will naturally come into play from your rotation.
