| Talent | | Description |
|---|
 | Frost Warding | 0/2 | Not a terrible talent, but no room in this build. |
 | Improved Frostbolt | 5/5 | Decreases casting time and increases overall dps. Must have talent. |
 | Elemental Precision | 0/3 | 3% mana is not enough to make a large difference and you should be at the 3% hit cap from gear so the decreased hit is unneccesary. |
 | Ice Shards | 5/5 | Brings your crits up to 200%, increases your overall burst, do not pass up. |
 | Frostbite | 3/3 | Great talent, increases defense by helping you get distance on melee and increases your offense by creating more shatter opportunities. |
 | Improved Frost Nova | 2/2 | Keep your nova up more often which is nice. Mainly, a must have as a prereq for shatter. |
 | Permafrost | 0/3 | Good talent for helping maintain control, but unfortunately no room for it in this build. |
 | Piercing Ice | 3/3 | Increases our ability to burst, and scales well. |
 | Icy Veins | 1/1 | Personal bloodlust when used offensively, helps proc frostbite to get melees off you if used defensively. |
 | Improved Blizzard | 0/3 | Rarely useful and definitely no room in this build for it. |
 | Arctic Reach | 2/2 | Increases range and more importantly radius, helping you control the battle much more effectively. |
 | Frost Channeling | 0/3 | Increases mana efficiency but I don't believe there is room for it in this build. In addition, you usually run out fo mana due to no frost spells and mana drains anyways. |
 | Shatter | 5/5 | Arguably one of the most important frost talents. This is what helps give frost burst on demand. |
 | Frozen Core | 0/3 | Trash. |
 | Cold Snap | 1/1 | Resets all your frost cooldowns. Must have. |
 | Improved Cone of Cold | 0/3 | No room for it in this build. You will often end up only using Rank 1 for the snares. |
 | Ice Floes | 0/2 | Handy for the CoC and Ice Barrier reduction, but no points to spare. |
 | Winter's Chill | 5/5 | With detect magic removed, this is now a must have talent to help give you poly protection. |
 | Ice Barrier | 1/1 | Damage absorption and the only way to get pushback protection as frost. Must have. |
 | Arctic Winds | 5/5 | Increased damage and survivability. No reason not to take this. |
 | Empowered Frostbolt | 5/5 | Helps with frostbolt damage which increases shatter combos and burst. |
 | Summon Water Elemental | 1/1 | The WE is incredible. Increased damage, keeps people in combat, extra nova that can be used for a shatter combo. Excellent talent. |
