This WoW Forever Mage BiS guide covers the best Level 30 gear for Arcane, Fire, and Frost. Each table includes recommended armor, weapons, enchants, and consumables for the current Beta.

These recommendations combine the October 3 gear lists with newer October 11 Beta item data from build 1.60.1.70338. Exact rankings can still change with further testing and item tuning.

Note

Because Forever remains in Beta, item stats and BiS rankings may change before launch.

Mage stat priority and dungeon loot priority

Arcane prioritizes Intellect and Spell Power, Fire favors Fire Damage, Spell Power, and Critical Strike, while Frost wants Frost Damage, Spell Power, and Intellect.

In dungeons, roll Need on clear caster upgrades for your current spec and Greed on off-spec gear. Give healing-focused items to healers when they benefit more from them.
