Let's look at how the frost mage operates. Together, we will grow an organic understanding of the basics and be able to incorporate those basics into most any spec variation you choose. I have been a mage for about 15 years now, favoring arcane. I also have several max level mages, most are arcane. I have two main mages that I play, both of which can easily tackle high end mythic +, so I feel as though I'm an authority on the subject of mages. And I thought it was time to share some of my wisdom. Hopefully, someone out there is helped. Enjoy! - Ігри
This is the best rotation instructional I have ever seen for any class.
Woah! Thank you so much.
For sure my brother he is right. The most informative yet simple and easy to understand! Keep up the good work!
He also made some really nice arc mage guide
@@Clht *high-five*
My favorite part “I picked a shark” also this man is the Bob Ross of WoW guides
I'm touched, but Bob Ross is a legend, and I'm just playing a mage. 😜
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda Sounds a lot like something Bob Ross would say, if he played WoW.
Jokes aside, you're great. This content is absolutely S-Tier, and you deserve every single follower and subscription. I am getting back into WoW right now with my brother, and I am following your Arcane guides heavily, it's really helped a ton.
@@NicholasGW I appreciate the kind words.
Just jumped back into WoW from taking a long 15+ year break about a month and a half ago. Decided to play a frost mage and here i am 496 doing great damage with this guide. Literally broken down the best I've seen out of ALL beginner guides. Would love to see you make more and grow! THANK YOU!
Awesome! And thanks! Seeing people succeed and understand the specs genuinely makes me want to make more!
This was a relaxing guide to watch, reminded of that old guy that did those paintings back in the day. Great guide
Thanks 😊
Before ever casting a Flurry, you need to cast Frostbolt or Glacial (if available), because Flurry is a 3-hit spell (each bolt refreshes the duration). First bolt of Flurry will reach before Frostbolt/Glacial and will take benefit of being frozen. Second and third bolt will come after and 2 stacks of Winter's Chill will be applied again. In conclusion: Casting Frostbolt/Glacial before Flurry, will result practically in 3 Winter's Chill debuffs.
Someone get in here with a shovel because @Hactus91 just unloaded a truck full of knowledge!
Man what a guide, you are the best guy in this world. Thank you!
😁
Arcane, I want you to know that your videos have helped me tremendously. I'm not very good at WoW, because I'n struggling with the basics to catch up to others. But because of your videos, I've been able to grasp said basics, and able to move onto the harder stuff. Judt yesterday, several of my runs had me sitting at top DPS, and not because of the group being outfitted poorly. I have you to thank for that.
I'm now looking forward to TWW more than before by a lot, and again this is thanks to you. I wish you well, and to many more videos in the future :)
@ComradeCage Thank you so much! Sometimes people just need a helping hand. You learned these thing and you practiced it. I just extended a hand!
You are absolutely the sweetest living person on the planet. I needed a soft and friendly teaching guide like this for my wife and this is better then i could have ever hoped for. Thank you so much for creating this
You are very kind. Thank you for your comment and your time!
Impressive pedagogy. Love your video !
Thanks!
by far one of the best wow guides out there. you just sound super kind :) thanks for this amazin video.
Yo, this guide is so good! Thank you. So clear, concise, and entertaining!
Thank you! Hope you have some fun with frost!
Your guides have help my smooth brain finally understand how to play mage and has help me have an absolute blast
You're welcome! If you have any questions along your mage journey, just let me know.
Great video man, I’m new to wow this explains better than anything I could find and shows what skills to use, not what’s meta or the next best thing but a good starter and the basics like it says, thank you!
Thank you!
This is my favorite wow guide. I just started Frost Mage in MoP Remix and this helped so much. Awesome job my guy.
Glad it helped! 😄
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this video, I wish all class videos were like this. I understood everything. Keep going!
Thanks for watching, glad everything was clear enough!
This was amazing. Thank you for explaining what the fingers of frost and brain freeze were as well as the easy way you broke down the rotation - took notes!
@hquinzelle awesome! Hopefully this builds a foundation for any spec experimentation you choose. Thanks for watching!
Your guides are amazing. You don’t have the same assumed knowledge issue most wow guides have.
Thank you! You just made my whole morning!
Awesome guide man. I love your style of teaching, when someone can learn how to approach learning any spec in general without overwhelming himself with dozen steps to follow. True example of giving ppl fishing rod instead of feeding them fish :).
Thank you for those kind words.
Dude, this was awesome. It was really well thought out and at a perfect pace for someone like myself finally trying to figure out how to play a mage. Thanks!
You're welcome! If frost ends up not being your thing, I have a fire and Arcane guide too. Thanks for watching!
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda I will definitely check those out as well. I love the idea of arcane but I know it's one of the more difficult specs out there. Thanks again.
you can immediately see that he has such a good heart!!! subscribed and liked. man its absolutely awesome how approachable and informative this guide is ❤️ you have such a calm and gentle voice, its a real joy to just listen! your tips and the whole structure of the video are 10/10. There are so many people out there, trying to give advice but you just dropped the simple basics and its so easy to follow you. Please continue 🫶🏼 only the best wishes - greetings from germany
OK, now I'm blushing.
video brought a tear to my eyes icl. it's so beautifully wholesome. my favorite part is when the music crescendoed when you got in the dungeon. :)
@@bigbyman1755 I'm glad you liked it. :)
This is a very well made guide that’s well explained man. Thanks, helped me a lot
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the video and amazing explanation! Please keep creating more videos.
great video, been looking all day and this is hands down the best.
Glad you like it!
I got this recommended in my feed today, playing frost mage myself. Great guide for beginners you put up there, even though there is a lot of wrong/missing information. But for the sake of simplicity and accessibility for new mage players, I think it's just perfect. I watched the whole thing, because it was so relaxing. Gj Mr. Ross
Thanks!
Thank you for actually explaining the basics and doing a step by step of what things actually are, what they mean and how they work. I went through so many doctoral, theoretical physics type of "basic guides" that I almost gave up on the spec.
Thank you for watching! And I'm proud of you for sticking with it! Frost is loads of fun!
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda Im heading into my first M+s today so, here's hoping for the best
@@diode_wow Good luck! Two quick tips: Make sure to keep Icy Veins and Cone of Cold on cooldown (using CoC to proc your free frozen orb) and keep Glacial Spike as your number one priority! You're going to do great!!!
@@diode_wow Also, let me know how it goes!😁
I didnt know Bob Ross is playing and teaching Frost Mage in WoW now
Lol!
These guides are genuinely so incredible! I’ve been watching all your videos. 😄
Thanks so much and keep up the great work. I hope to see your channel grow! 💪🏻🔥
Thanks!
I enjoy the way u explain the rotation. You actually explain it and not just read the talent like most UA-camrs, keep it up.
Thanks! And, I plan to!
My man, you are the chillest dude i have ever seen. I fking love you! Amazing Job!
Thanks! Glad you got something out of it.
Your guides are top notch and the best presentation I've ever seen for a guide. Please please oh please do others! I don't know if you only do mage guides, but I would love to see druid and shaman. And you should have way more subs! You just got mine.
Thank you for your support! I specialize in mage, but I will definitely consider branching out.
Subscribed. First vid of yours I’ve seen and even as a frost mage main with 25d gameplay, I knew the lingo and the aoe roll but the explanation still helped me follow along and sharpen it up! Great work fam
Thanks!
finally someone who can explain something to someone in detail. you are super. greetings from Germany
Thank you so much. If you liked this one, YOU are going to love the next one! It's scheduled to go live about 9 hours from now. 😃
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda is it live? is it about frost? and could you give a m+ skill?
@dannyleecarterjr.2107 no, no, yes! It's about posturing in arcane. When you made your original comment, I just scheduled a German themed video, thanking my German viewers. So I thought it was funny timing 😄
This guide made me realize that its important to relax and breathe and that you can still achieve bigger things while taking it easy. I'm somewhat a hardcore M+ player and this guide made things very easy for me to start a mage now. Thank you FRIEND, greetings from India
Glad you enjoyed it!
I had to like and subscribe on both of my accounts! I want to say thank you so much for such a simple and approachable guide but still being so informative
Awesome! THIS is why I make these videos! Thanks for your support.
Simple and not over the top on explaining! Loved the priority explanation along with the thought process. Good stuff for sure.
Thanks!
This guide is exactly what I was looking for thank you so much!! Subscribed :)
Awesome! Glad you got something from it.
Awesome❤ guides! Please do continue 🥰
Waiting for intermediate guide and guides for other class/specs!🤗
Fantastic video. I've been learning for balance druid and warrior specs, but all I was able to find was for experienced people. This video made everything clear to me and will provide a comfortable start. Thanks!
You're welcome. Good luck!
Brilliant video thanks alot , as a lifelong MM hunter main , my brain was hurting trying to learn frost , and this has helped me so much , definitely going to take a long time to master, but im enjoying the challenge
Thank you so much! Stick with it! I started as frost and have loved it more and more.
I wish all guides were like this ❤
Thanks! 😀
As a new mage player, I really enjoyed that video! Your instructions were excellent keep it up boss!
Will do! Glad you enjoyed it
This was FANTASTIC. As a former warlock and loving melee test dummy in pvp i have moved to mage blizzadds love child and this was FANTASTIC information... and you spoke SLOWLY AND CLEARLY so a dumb ass like me can understand and comprehend the information. I gave you a thumbs up and a subscribe and will open all my other accounts to give you more thumbs ups!!!!
Ps if you could do a video on pvp mages that would be great also!!!!!!
Thank you so much! And everyone can be dumb at times, but luckily, being dumb is only a temporary condition!
yo just wanted to say your vids have really made mage click for me, i have both arcane and frost down more than i ever thought i would. super excited for TWW now :)
Awesome, these basics directly translate into TWW content. Glad you liked it!
Thanks for another great how to vid! I love Frost Mage and dabble in arcance myself.
You're welcome! And thanks for watching.
What a cool guide! Deserves more views
Thanks!
Best video ever, frozen hands down
Lol, thanks!
Thanks for this video! I'm pretty new to wow and I have just started a frost mage in MoP remix. This video gave me a lot of motivation to continue
You're welcome! And it's awesome you're exploring mage! Thanks for watching!!!
Awesome vid bro I needed this!
Thanks! Have fun!
Already my favorite guide ^^
Thanks!
Thank you, this was everything i needed, you are amazing
I think you're pretty amazing too!
Oh my god. I have not seen better explained video and rotation than yours! Truly amazing work, would you be able to create an intermediate version please?
Thank you! It's on the back burner for now, but on the list
More info on equipment and whatever knowledge you may have! (: I really enjoyed this video and the calming vibe. It can be stressful watching other try to teach. Thank you!
For more info on stats, crit, haste, mast. But there are some really fun very high mast builds to explore!
This literally what i needed and its pre patch alrdy 😅
This was a really easily understood examination of the Frost Mage, very useful, thank you. Would love to see an intermediate guide.
Thanks for watching!
Subbed. No stress or hyper fatigue. Thank you. Never played Mage after getting ganked a ton by Amy Grant lol.
Thanks for the sub and welcome to the community!
You are a very good teacher
Thanks! It takes a good student to learn!
Just started a mage on remix, been having a lot of fun but noticed I was feeling "off" in my rotation and what to use. This helped out Soo much ty ty😊😊
Awesome!
thanks. you could brake my stone head to understand some stuff and was easy to follow your steps
I'm glad it proved useful :)
Can you do all guides for everything I need them for, this is amazing.
Good job, very nice and beginner friendly guide.
Thanks!
Really nice guide! Thank you for that 😊
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching.
This was great, thanks!
You're welcome, hope it helped!
awesome guide bro!
Thank you!
Been doing trash damage but this video is showing so much I didn’t know
Great!
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda what do we copy that code in the description to?
@goodoleeli7921 open your talent tree. (N), and look in the lower left, and use the drop down menu to select "Import". Copy the code into the large top box.
Awesome video!
Thank you, awesome person!
I would love an intermediate guide!
So great thank you so much !!
You're welcome! Now get out there and FREEZE some stuff!
best guide ever
Amazing content, keep it up!
Thanks!
Damnn this is gold!!!
you guide made me really understand the proc thansks! more please can you made one with the way tu use defense CD etc please
That's great! I've always got more content on the way.
fukn Legend. I love this Video :D Nice Guide man!
Thanks! You're pretty legendary yourself!
You are a real find
Thanks!
Please make an updated guide for frost prior to TWW release
Would love for you to do this more more specs
I've got one for arcane and one for fire!
I’ve found this guide so helpful thank you! 😊 One question, when I’m using cone of cold, it isn’t resetting frozen orb - do you know why this could be?
The cone has to hit THREE or more targets. So be mindful of your positioning so you can cleave all 3.
I like to think of the cone of cold radius like I would a sneeze. Ahhh CHOO!
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemandaah that makes sense! Perfect thank you:)
you are awesome!
@@valekvonkarstein6907 Thay was a nice thing to say. Thank you!
Hello friend! How did you get your buffs (icicles/bone chill) to line up on top of your action bar? Great video BTW!
It's a part of your buff bar, in Edit mode. I did some tweaking to align them in the direction I wanted them to grow. Thanks for watching 👀
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda Thank you!
@@Ulysses350 np 😊
HAH! This helped me get it!
Great!
can you explain this: “when you see brain freeze think flurry”? at 2:51 - before you was talking about winter’s chill, so i am confused why brain freeze?
Brain freeze gives you Flurry, Flurry applies Winters Chill.
1st day of asking for an intermediate guide.
I quite literally made a note. I'm making a list :) I hear you!
your guide has helped me a ton on AOE damage.. but my single boss damage is terrible. i use wow heads myth plus and raid builds. but im really struggling on boss damage. the other thing i cant seem to understand is.. do you want winters chill on before glacial spike or not? wow head guide says when u have it with or without winters chill to use it? but the damage is a lot different with it on vs off. im also probably slow at casting. anyway can you explain the glacial spike question and any advice on single target?
Glacial Spike is priority 1. But if you can make it "winters chilled" with cone of cold or flurry, then do it that way. Lining up a flurry into glacial spike is optimal.
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda so i saw ur talent tree. do u not change it for a raid or mythic? i just been using wowhead
@nickboris1111 the talent tree in the vid is one I thought would best teach the spec. Wowheads builds are pretty legit for raid situations and their mythic + one is solid.
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda i really like the frozen orb into blizz into cone of cold.. issue is wow head for raids doesnt have that tree selected the feed back loop and youre saying dungeon. so what tree could you recommend for raids? if you had a video on what to do for raiding oh my i would be so excited
@@nickboris1111 Something like this would work well in raids.
www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/mage/frost/DAPFQglYQZUAUIhQRUBENVVUVFYQZFRGBQBA
So first time mage player what spec would you recommend. I started frost but if there is a better one I rather learn now. Also how do I get that priority helper on the side of my screen
As a first time mage, I recommend playing as Frost because it teaches you priorities and reacting to procs like Brain Freeze and Fingers of Frost. Having a firm grasp of those concepts will help when you explore other specs or variations of Frost.
As for the priorities list on the side: I made an action bar and put spells on it to help guide viewers. I then did a graphic overlay to draw your attention to it when needed.
please make a demonology build and explain it like this too plzzzz!!!! ty! just subbed
Thanks for the sub! My forte is not with warlock unfortunately, BUT I do know a top tier mythic demo warlock that I might be able to convince to help me-help you. In the meantime, check the World of Warcraft armory for the character "Discordwifu", he knows his stuff inside and out!
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda I will be watching out for new content
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda also been wondering what you’re favorite mage spec is and also wanna know if frost mage does more overall dmg then fire ?
Maybe I missed this in the video, but would you ever have the need to hard cast Frostbolt?
Yes, when you are out of the other priorities. It's like Frostbolt drives your other procs forward .
I love you.
☺️
do you use ray of frost when no icy veins available?
Yes, when you have no Fingers of Frost. Ray of Frost gives you 2 Fingers of Frost. So you wouldn't want to use it when you have FOF or you would overcap. So spend FOF, then ROF.
Why u dont use comet storm, and what about other active skills from tree?
@stunned9509 when I laid put the format for this video, I wanted it to be approachable by anyone at any skill level. So some talents weren't taken, and some skills were not discussed. As I continue to make more guides, I will be sure to add that information in the description.
Is this talent tree is for mythic and raid both?
This was a talent tree I put together to show the basics of how frost mage operates. And it is viable in mythic +, but I don't recommend it for raid settings.
I noticed for AOE you only use blizzard and ice orb what about using comet storm and ice nova?
@highwizard_bristlebane that's an option! The spec shown in the video was the most basic spec that best encapsulates frost and easy to learn on, but once the training wheels are off, you can go anywhere!
Is Comet Storm not better to have?
You can take it, and it will alter your rotation and posturing. I chose to exclude it form the basics build because of those alterations. Wanted to make a spec anyone could jump right into. Great question!
So how often do you use Frostbolt?
It's your lowest priority, so cast it after your more important stuff isn't available. Like Glacial spike, ice lance, icy veins.
@@ArcaneBrillianceMagemanda Ty sir. Great guide to
We want intermediate!
Yay! I've got loads of content in the works for mage, yes intermediate techniques for frost too, but my computer is a potato and I'm limited to how much I can put out. I'm trying my best! Thanks for watching 👀
I love how the frost one is 16m long, the fire one 7, and arcane.... 40 minutes long :D
I have been experimenting with different flavors of How 2 Guides.
With the arcane one, I just gave you everything in what I thought was a clear way. So there was an emphasis on how arcanes rotation keeps building up and up.
With frost, I wanted to emphasize the need for priorities and how those are built.
And for fire, I thought 90% of the basics could be summed up by designing a reactive mini-game around it's rotation.
So, in my brain, each spec is a puzzle of a set size. And arcane is a puzzle with 20 pieces, frost with 10, and fire with 5.
Great comment!
No mention at all about frozen ring or frost nova on dgs.... Meh
Thanks for catching that! I'll be sure to put it in the next frost one.
Thank u this is so clear ! God saving clear thank u 🫶🏼
excellent job
Thanks for watching! :)
Thank You So Much ❤🤍

Fckn beautiful 🥲 thank u
