Best Frost Mage Talents and Build Guide for World of Warcraft Dragonflight 10.0.7
The Frost Mage is an excellent Mage Specialization in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, with incredible damage against single-target foes and groups of enemies. From spells such as Ice Block, which keeps the caster nice and protected inside a block of ice to Ice Barrier, which protects the user with, well, ice — the Frost Mage has fantastic survivability, which is something well appreciated as a cloth user.
