FROST IS #1 ON EVERY SINGLE RAID FIGHT RIGHT NOW See the logs →
Meanwhile, 50% of Mythic boss kills with an Arcane Mage have the mage dying before the boss. 🤡

Give us back active damage reduction or the attacks on healers WILL CONTINUE!
Frost had Cold Snap. Fire had Cauterize. Arcane had Greater Invisibility.
Then Fire and Frost also got GInvis. Fair enough, so Arcane got something else to compensate, right?
No! Arcane got nothing!
Now GInvis has no damage reduction for anyone, but Fire and Frost still keep their original defensives. What exactly is greater about Greater Invisibility anymore?
Arcane Missiles is our very first talent point and we never cast it.
Arcane Pulse replaces Arcane Explosion, an iconic spell we've had since Classic.
Frost Mages can hide their Icicles. Sunfury Arcane cannot hide Spellfire Spheres which have no gameplay tie-in, they're purely visual clutter.
The Sunfury Arcane Phoenix is orange even though a purple version already exists in the game files. It's right there, Blizzard.
Why are our hero talents fire and frost themed in the first place? Is the fantasy of Arcane to respec at max level?
@BLIZZARD, what IS the intended identity for Arcane other than “more fragile than its alternatives without a compensating upside”? You took our funnel, execute, and defensives just to turn us into SLOP.
💩!! BUFF ARCANE SINGLE TARGET DAMAGE !! 💩
