Im 70 atm gonna spec arcane when i buy gamecard (soon). Mostly going to play pvp to gain honor and save for 80. Want to be full arcane and something pretty good for pvp, but still with good dmg. Any good ideas?
Was thinking something like this

Few things that you chose that were not needed in my opinion:
Arcane meditation - Pointless if your not dpsing for a long period of time, a pvp battle will last 15 seconds at most and you should drink after it.
I've heard of Arena battles that lasts up to 10 minutes at a time. :)

Arcane Barrage does get ~85% of your spell damage, though.
That's what makes it so much better than Fireblast.

uhh ... you cast other spells. Fireblast, Ice lance, CoC, Spellsteal, Slow ... whatever's up. I don't see any issue with this.

: I think you're assuming that I'm disputing you for not taking Mind Mastery. I'm not. I have no idea how to play PVP effectively.
I was just correcting your mistake about Arcane Barrage's coefficient, that's all. :)

Does Netherwind Presence affect the cooldown on Barrage? I don't think so, but I don't really know. I would much rather use those in Missile Barrage (if it doesn't affect Arcane Barrage at all), since if it procs a 2.5 second Arcane Missiles is great extra damage. For spell impact, I personally don't think a 6% increase to the listed spells is very powerful, and would probably put those points into Arcane Stability (though this is, again, because i'm a big fan of Missile Barrage and it is annoying to waste channel time).

So eh...something like this then?ttp://
www.wowhead.com/?talent=obxVbzrcdeGzGttdb
Noticed Fireblast, could be helpful in pvp...But eh is Arcane Empowerment really for pve...i mean 45% xtra dmg with missiles thats quite alot...would kinda be nice to have. And actually im not gonna play arena, since its resetting, might try it out a bit but wont put my focus on that

Thanks good help, but will torment the weak's 12% +dmg cover up for 12% +intellect, with mind mastery giving lots of extra dmg? Just not good at the maths. And torment of weak is only active if target is slowed. What if its dispelled? Plus its always good to have mana...i would prob go for that
EDIT: What about focus magic :o
