Point order0 of 51

Points are recorded in the order you add them, so the link doubles as a level-by-level leveling order.

How to use the Mage calculator

  1. Set your level. The point counter follows it: 1 point at 10, 51 at 60. Drop the level to see what a leveling build looks like at 20 or 40.
  2. Spend points. Left click adds, right click (or Shift-click) refunds. A refused click tells you which row or prerequisite you still need.
  3. Read the ranks. The panel under the trees shows every rank of the selected talent, the current rank highlighted, and the Classic 1.12 text when "Compare to Classic" is on.
  4. Share it. Copy link gives a URL with the full allocation and the order you spent points in. "Copy for AI / Discord" gives a plain-text version with each learned talent's tooltip.

Capstone and signature talents

  • Presence of Mind (Arcane, row 5): When activated, your next Mage spell with a casting time less than 10 sec becomes an instant cast spell.
  • Arcane Power (Arcane, row 7): For the next 15 sec, your spells deal 30% more damage while costing 30% more mana to cast.
  • Blast Wave (Fire, row 5): A wave of flame radiates outward from the caster, damaging all enemies caught within the blast for 154 to 184 Fire damage, and Dazing them for 50% reduced movement speed for 6 sec.
  • Combustion (Fire, row 7): When activated, this spell causes each of your Fire damage spell hits to increase your critical strike chance with Fire damage spells by 10%. This effect lasts until you have caused 3 non-periodic critical strikes with Fire spells.
  • Cold Snap (Frost, row 5): Finishes the remaining cooldown on all your other Frost spells.
  • Ice Barrier (Frost, row 7): Shield yourself, absorbing 447 damage and increasing your Frost damage by 15% for 1 min. While shielded, your Frost damage is increased by an additional 5% and you do not lose casting time when you take damage.

Every Mage talent has its own page with all ranks, prerequisites and the Classic comparison: see all 53 Mage talents, the spellbook with every rank and train level, and ready-made Mage builds you can open here with one click.

Questions players ask

How many talent points does a level 60 Mage have in WoW Forever?
51. You earn your first talent point at level 10 and one per level to 60. With the Talented Legacy perk you start earning at level 5 to 9, but the total stays 51. Use the "First point at" control to plan around it.
What changed in the Mage trees compared with Classic?
This snapshot records 7 new talents, 32 changed talents and 3 moved talents out of 53. Turn on "Compare to Classic" to see the 1.12 tooltip under each talent, or read the Mage changes page.
How do the row requirements work?
Each row of a tree needs 5 more points spent in earlier rows of that tree: row 2 needs 5, row 3 needs 10, and the 31-point talent in row 7 needs 30. Talents with an arrow also require the talent above them at full rank. The calculator enforces both and tells you why a click was refused.
Can I use this calculator on my phone?
Yes. Tap a talent to add a point and read every rank below the trees. Switch to Inspect mode to read without spending, then use the Learn and Unlearn buttons. Nothing requires an account.
Does a shared link include my point order?
Yes. The link stores the allocation and the order you added points in, so anyone who opens it sees a level-by-level order under the trees. Saved builds live in your browser; use Backup JSON to move them between devices.

Talent text comes from the WoW Forever client build 1.60.1.70753 as recorded in the Talents Forever dataset (CC BY 4.0), snapshot 2026-11-03. Ranks marked "estimate" were not read directly from the client. Hotfixes after launch can change numbers before this page does.
