Clearcasting no longer has a chance to activate off of Dampen Magic and Amplify Magic. Clearcasting no longer has a chance to be activated by abilities cast when not in combat.

This effect also increases the cost of Arcane Blast as before and still stacks to 4 times.

• Blizzard's notes: Critical Mass: Mages can now spend up to 5 points in this talent for 10% total critical strike increase.
• Blizzard's notes: Fire Power: Redesigned. Now only 3 talent points. Increases damage done by Fire spells by 1/2/3% per the Mage's Fire effects on the target, up to a maximum increase of 12%. Spells that mix multiple schools of magic do not grant this bonus.
• Blizzard's notes: Ice Lance: Ice Lance damage against Frozen targets changed to a 200% increase (Was 300%).
• Blizzard's notes: Cone of Cold: Movement speed of the first 4 targets hit is decreased by an additional 10% and the slow lasts an additional 3 seconds on those targets.
• Blizzard's notes: Winter's Chill: Redesigned. No longer increases critical strike chance. Instead, it causes Cone of Cold to deal 40% increase damage per stack of Winter’s Chill on the target, consumed by next Cone of Cold.
