Mage PvE best in slot at level 20

Level 20 archive. Frost damage, and plain spell power beside it, since nothing in the build casts anything else. Then Intellect, for a mana bar that has to last the whole pull. Stamina hardly moves the ranking, and the other schools not at all.

Mage PvE questions

What is the best weapon for a level 20 Mage PvE in WoW Forever?

Evocator's Blade. The top pick comes from Trash mobs, Blackfathom Deeps (0.05% in Classic).

Which stats matter most for a level 20 Mage PvE?

Frost damage, and plain spell power beside it, since nothing in the build casts anything else. Then Intellect, for a mana bar that has to last the whole pull. Stamina hardly moves the ranking, and the other schools not at all.

What talents does a Mage PvE use at level 20?

Frost dungeon, 0/0/11 at level 20: Improved Frostbolt 5/5, Elemental Precision 5/5, Piercing Ice 1/3.

How much health does a level 20 Mage have in this gear?

A Human Mage has 647 health and 330 armor with 1546 mana; a Undead Mage has 697 health and 293 armor with 1486 mana. That is Classic's level 20 base stats plus the selected gear, including random suffixes, with no enchants, buffs or talents.

Rankings within a slot are best first for level 20. Random-suffix items use the named variant's stats and link to the underlying item; check the full name when buying. Quest levels marked "in Classic" come from Classic's data, and Forever may have moved them. Drop chances are Classic's.
