Arcane Mage Midnight Stats, Races and Consumables Guide

Stat Ranking

Stat priority: Intellect > Haste > Versatility > Critical Strike > Mastery

Stat Outline

Critical Strike increases your critical strike chance of all our abilities.

Mastery increases your mana regeneration rate and maximum mana by x%. It also increases the damage of all your Arcane spells by x%.

Haste increases your cast speed and lowers the GCD.

Versatility slightly increases your damage done and decreases your damage taken.

Generally I would recommend Mechagnome or Pandaren if you are looking to do the highest damage possible going into Midnight and in raid. For Season 2 of Midnight m+, I would recommend Dwarf.

Dwarves are strong because they have access to an ability called Stoneform, one of the most useful utility abilities in M+, which removes all harmful Poison, Disease, Curse, Magic, and Bleed effects and reduces all physical damage taken by 10% for 8 seconds.

You should socket one Indecipherable Eversong Diamond (often referred to as a “meta gem”) for the high amount of Intellect it provides.

Then you should socket whatever sims the highest for you, but I would generally recommend Haste / Critical Strike gems.
