“Visually beautiful” is an understatement. As soon as these changes go live in prepatch I’m just going to practice arcane every day until I’m good at it because this looks so freaking cool.

As a PvE player I am still so thankful for this video. Literally EVERY Mage streamer who got into Alpha has been exclusively playing Fire and it has been driving me insane. Thank you for actually letting see what my abilities look like, my hero 💜

For real, arcane has some of the most visually appealing hero specs and no one is showing them🥲

Mage has the best hero talents imo.

This has all the *GOOD* vibes from Legion arcane, and if it is like legion arcane i'm going to be *SO* happy... I Absolutely LOVED arcane. BFA prepatch absolutely cooked it and it's not been *truly* pleasing to play since. This gives me *SO* much hope for Arcane.

Still waiting them give Arcane Lightning theme to Arcane Mage/Spellslinger instead of crystals, especially with "electric" names for the new talents. I love the Spellslinger mechanic, but it could embend into the target with volatile energy and then release a purple/pink Arcane Lightning spear, like lightning spear in Diablo IV. (and Arcane Barrage call down purple/pink lightning instead of spiral bolts haha)

I am a fire mage at heart, but arcane looks good, less complex in a good way, but still plays like an arcane cannon and I like that.

I spent time leveling another mage, but fire to learn and master it. I love Frost. Arcane has always been boring to me, although I love the lore part of it. I would love for it to get some fun love.

True tuning doesn't matter at all yet

after playing some classic recently i really hope they will change the dmg numbers in retail back to what they were. It is SO MUCH MORE satisfying in classic. The crits, and the way the numbers pop up is so much better. I will never understand why the changed it. I really dont want to use a buggy addon for this, they need to make an option to change it back the way it was. Its actually really weird that they have not figured it out yet, the difference is so insane.

Alot of the new visuals for the new stuff are great. Really looking forward to this expac.

This is the spec/hero talent combo im most excited about. I hate button bloat and spellslinger is mostly passive, augmenting what's already there, and i love the changes to arcane blast, making it more worth it to focus

Can you please show us a gameplay test of Frost mage next? Would love to see the updated spellslinger visuals there.

It looks amazing! I almost wish the arcane splinters from the Spellslinger tree had a touch of blue particle effects, just to make them more visually distinct from the rest of the arcane spells being thrown at the target. Basically just enough to imply there's a hint of frost in there The Phoenix from Sunfury looks amazing!

Those spellslinger splinters look amazing.

let's go ARCANE! one of my fav specs ever too

Whoever is handling mage is a real one.

I already had it set in mind to play spellslinger as soon as the hero spec names dropped. But seeing the visuals now completely set my decision. Im not going anywhere near sunfury or frostfire lmao

Any TL;DR on the rotational complexity/button bloat?

I am so excited for this I hope arcane can pump in m+!

hello, for the noobs, is possible some guid with rotation for mage arcane for those that never tried as me, all saying is simple, but how simple? thank u

visually arcane looks so cool

New slinger animations looking good!

I recognize that warlock you used as a target dummy!

Wish i was excited for my hero talents

Whats is Virtuoso Mesmer from gw2 anyway

DEFINITELY gonna be playing Arcane :D

Yea, I'm super pumped for mage in TWW. Between the arcane rework and sunfury fire mage, it's gonna be a great xpac. Seems like we finally got some mages back on the dev team! :D

Pretty much the team of the new expansion '' Random dmg procs ''

Is this what happens when your dev team listens? -A Shaman Player

Arcane echo talent will be useless as far as I know with the removal of Arcane Tempest. But the talent tree is really tricky since there are quite some talents that you have to take. Leaving the options limited for keystones.

God damn I can't wait for The War Within

Would be cool to test the spellslinger supernova 1600% damage bomb talent

So Arcane now is like a copy of Frost mage icicles?

Really hope they make every single hero talent spec as visually distinctive as the mage ones. Class fantasy and flavor is literally the entire point of these new hero talents. I cannot understand how some of them are just a bunch of passives

Wait I can’t be sunfury as arcane?

As a current arcane mage main, I'm really happy with the changes! I still think Sunfury, especially for arcane, needs a few changes tho

Omg that duel

Spellslinger is just frost mage mastery but lightning

will frost get some love?

Men i want to play mage so badly but every time I play it I just feel the need to come back to play melee

All the spell effects are crazy. Now imagine 40 players spells going off at the same time in a raid. Or 20 or 10. You wont see anything becauae of it.

Have feeling like out of 3 specs arcane got least impressive damage tbf, check fire and frost , they seems to have much stronger damage, from one side I'm happy for arcane rework, from other bit sad they didn't gave bigger burst / damage.

Sunfury is still too fiery for me for arcane. On the other hand spellslinger looks underwhelming... ehh

Omg that's so many damage % modifiers haha

Yeah that damage will get tuned LOL :D

i swear if we dont get hunter changes.....

@@13samfootball He's level 80 and missiles is hitting for less than what I melee for at level 70 rn. even with the buffed clearcasting procs until he gets the 5th cast off which is the buffed missiles. I know he wasn't doing the rotation perfect, and that's kind of my point to the spec. I'm glad they kept the tier set and added into the talents but it's a spec that's still so stupidly imposing mechanically, in comparison to how brain dead (and FUN) some other specs are you know? Nobody wants to play a spec where you have to track 5+ modifiers just for 1 cast. I mean maybe masochists do but that's not a FUN spec in my opinion. Arcane should just be about those 3 spells (for st) (Blast/Missiles/Barrage) + cd. Buff them, give the spec mobility, capstone talents could be the barrage throwing an orb out because that is quite fun when it does proc, blasting/missles etc. Just my opinion of course and I'm aware not everyone shares it.

I can't tell if "Wizened" is a typo or intentional, because "wisened" [why-zend] and "wizened" [wih-zend] are two entirely separate words with almost opposite meanings.

HELP shaman now

I think orb barage just sucks for pvp. The chances are too low for the amount of 4 arcane charges arcane barages you use

wow same shit

Frost and arcane can be as cool as they want, nothing will change my mind that setting entire trashpacks on fire to let them explode shortly afterwards is the coolest F-ing thing you can do on a mage 🗣🔥🔥🔥
