Tier Sets
Midnight Season 2 Frost Mage Tier Set Bonuses:
- (2) Set Bonus: Each stack of Freezing Shattered has a 4% chance to generate an Icicle. Glacial Spike! damage increased by 20%.
- (4) Set Bonus: Casting Glacial Spike! has a chance to rapidly generate 5 Icicles over 1 sec. Shatter damage increased by 5%.
Tier Set Discussion:
Overall, a very interesting tier set which will keep you engaged at all times.
Any time you shatter a Freezing stack, you have a chance to gain an Icicle. Occasionally, after one Ice Lance, you will gain Glacial Spike! instantly.
The 4-set is also very interesting, in some situations you might be able to chain Glacial Spikes back to back.

Trinkets
There are only a few, well-tuned trinkets currently in Midnight for Frost Mage, two from raid and one from dungeons.
Gebbo's Bottomless Bag - your absolute BiS trinket. It’s completely passive, so you don’t have to play around it in any capacity. Just grants you a random stat randomly.
Wavecaller's Seastone - your 2nd bis trinket. Just a passive intellect gain, so you do not need to play around it.
Freightrunner's Flask - decent alternative trinket. This one grants you Critical Strike on-use and has a 1.5 min CD. Just use on CD with Ray Of Frost, Frozen Orb or Comet Storm.
Embellishments
The current best performing Embellishments in Midnight for Frost Mage is 2x Arcanoweave Lining, which can be crafted on any armor piece. I highly recommend crafting it on low stat budget pieces, such as Cloak and Wrists.
Alternatively, I would recommend crafting a 2-hander Staff (Aln'hara Cane) early into the season due to the massive number of stats weapons provide.
These Embellishments are BiS for both raid and M+.
Nebulous Voidcores (Bonus Rolls)
The Midnight Season 2 Bonus Rolls (Nebulous Voidcore) will be available from the start of the season as an alternative reward from your Great Vault. More sources for the bonus rolls will become available later into the Season.
Nebulous Voidcore Bonus Rolls let you target specific loot from a Raid Boss or Mythic+ Dungeon; once an item is received via Bonus Loot, that item is removed from the Bonus Loot Pool.
Below are the High Priority bonus roll target items and where they drop from:
| Source / Drop | Difficulty | Target Item |
| Nymrissa Wavecaller | Mythic / Heroic | Wavecaller's Seastone |
| The Lost Explorers | Mythic / Heroic | Gebbo's Bottomless Bag |
| Ula’tek | Mythic / Heroic | Aqirbane Reliquary |
| Ula’tek | Mythic / Heroic | Jan'thrazet, The Soul Fang |
