Fire is the Ranged DPS specialization of the Mage in WoW: Forever. This page summarizes its talent tree as it appears in the beta client (build 1.60.1.69913); the role is the one stated by the Icy Veins guide for the specialization.
The class's three trees, with the talents the Icy Veins guide recommends at level 20 in colour and all the others in grey. The small number on the left of each row is the points you must have spent in the tree to reach it. Point counts are shown when the guide states them; otherwise only the talents are named. This section is fixed: it does not move and does not depend on the calculator.
Icy Veins: improves Fireball.
Icy Veins: 50% crit chance on your next Fire Blast within 20 s and its cooldown reduced by 2 s.
Icy Veins: crits trigger damage over time.
Icy Veins: an opener that applies a strong DoT.
In order of importance, according to Icy Veins.
Icy Veins: hit chance comes first until the cap. The beta is early, so no specific gear is listed.
What the Icy Veins guide lists for this specialization.
No source publishes a best-in-slot list or enchants for this specialization yet: the Icy Veins Forever guides only cover level 20 for now and do not detail them. The dungeon items below are ranked by rule from the stat priority and are not a best-in-slot list. This section will be filled when a source publishes them, with nothing invented on our side.

These are the deepest talents in the tree: they require 30 points already spent in the specialization. Official game text, at maximum rank.
When activated, this spell causes each of your Fire damage spell hits to increase your critical strike chance with Fire damage spells by 10%. This effect lasts until you have caused 4 non-periodic critical strikes with Fire spells.
Talents you take only once, with their tier (official text at maximum rank).
Hurls an immense fiery boulder that causes 110 Fire damage and an additional 44 Fire damage over 12 sec.
Your non-periodic critical strikes with Fireball, Frostfire Bolt, Fire Blast, and Scorch grant Hot Streak for 15 sec. Hot Streak reduces the cast time of Pyroblast by 25%, stacking up to 3 times.
A wave of flame radiates outward from the caster, damaging all enemies caught within the blast for 163 Fire damage, and Dazing them for 50% reduced movement speed for 6 sec.
Each line is a tier of the tree; in brackets, the talent's maximum rank.

| 1 | Wake of Fire (2) · Incineration (3) · Improved Fireball (5) |
