Save and share a Mage build

Spend points in the calculator above, then use Copy link. The address updates on every rank so a real path under /mage/build/ restores the same build in another browser. Drafts also stay in local storage on this device.

Talc does not publish community rankings or unverified BiS lists. Plan your own Arcane / Fire / Frost split and share the link.

What changed vs Classic?

In our dataset for Mage, talent marks versus Classic Era break down as 6 new (N), 21 changed (C), 15 moved (M), and 12 unchanged. Counts are computed from data/talents.json for this class — not copied from other calculators. See the beta changelog when the client build updates.

About the Mage trees in Forever

How Mage talent points work in Forever

At level 60 you have 51 talent points. Those points are one shared pool across Arcane, Fire, and Frost — not 51 per tree.

Inside a single tree, spending 5 points unlocks the next row. Locked rows stay grey until that gate is met. Talents also respect maxRank (1–5) and prerequisite links: you cannot rank a talent until its requirement is filled.

The calculator blocks overspend. Used and remaining points update as you click.

Arcane, Fire, and Frost trees

This page lists 54 Mage talents in our dataset: 18 in Arcane, 17 in Fire, 19 in Frost. Every name and rank text is prerendered in the HTML so you (and crawlers) can read them without running the interactive grid.

Use the trees above to try Arcane-heavy, Fire-heavy, or Frost-heavy splits. Nothing on this page claims a single “correct” PvE or PvP build — that would need live tuning data we do not invent.

What changed for Mage vs Classic?

Against Classic Era in our diff file, Mage shows 6 new talents, 21 changed, 15 moved, and 12 unchanged. Examples of new nodes include Missile Barrage, Arcane Geometry, and Arcane Blast. Changed examples include Arcane Focus, Improved Channeling, and Magic Absorption. Moved examples include Wand Specialization, Arcane Subtlety, and Arcane Resilience.

Open the change list on this page for the full crawlable set, or open an individual talent page for every rank description. Counts come from data/talents.json for class mage — not from competitor pages.

When the client build moves, check the beta changelog for what we rebuilt.

Plan, save, and share a Mage build

Each point you spend updates the address bar. Copy that URL, or use Copy link, to restore the same ranks in another browser via a real path under /mage/build/ — not a hash fragment.

Drafts also stay in local storage on this device (clearing site data removes them). Reset and undo are available in the calculator chrome when you need to restart a theorycraft pass. Talc cannot import or export an in-game talent string — plan here, then apply ranks in the client yourself.

If you are comparing classes before locking a main, the home hub links all nine calculators, including Warlock and Druid beside Mage.

Does Talc pick the best Mage build?

No. Talc is a planning tool. It does not publish unverified BiS, DPS rankings, or leveling presets. Spend points on the trees, then share your own link.

Where is my draft saved, and can I import a game build?

Drafts stay in this browser’s local storage on this device. Clearing cookies or site data removes them. Share links restore ranks on any browser. Talc cannot import talent strings from the game client.

Is Talc official, and do I need an account?

Talc is an unofficial fan-made tool, not affiliated with Blizzard. It is free and does not require an account.
