Welcome to another Arcane Brilliance (http://www.wow.com/category/Arcane-Brilliance/), the weekly Mage (http://www.wow.com/category/Mage/) column that asks all the tough questions, and then Ice Blocks before the tough answers one-shot it.
A little while after Wrath hit, Arcane Brilliance posted a column on how to gear your Mage up for Naxx (http://www.wow.com/2009/01/10/arcane-brilliance-gearing-your-mage-up-for-naxx/). Several things have changed since then:
Pretty much everything I wrote then is now wrong.
You don't really gear for Naxx anymore. Naxx is now a place you go in order to gear up for other places.
Trial of the Champion (http://www.wow.com/2009/07/25/arcane-brilliance-trial-of-the-champions-loot-preview-for-mages/).
Knowing these things, I thought an updated gearing column might be in order. So if you're raising a fledgling Mage, and level 80 is about to hit you like a truckload of Death Knights (http://www.wow.com/category/death-knight/), and you're looking for the quickest way to turn green and blue into purple, look no farther. Well maybe a little farther. The column's not over yet.Continue reading Arcane Brilliance: Making your Mage raid-worthy, part 1 (http://www.wow.com/2009/09/06/arcane-brilliance-making-your-mage-raid-worthy-part-1/)
