Well I'm half way through level 59 ATM, and would have dinged 60 tonight had the servers been up, but I'm getting ready to respec at 60.
Right now I'm specced with part arcane to get evocation, PoM, etc. and the rest in fire. Seeing as how everything end-game is FIRE, I'm going frost. Any other mages have any feedback on this spec?
