PvP Talents

Primary Talents

Doubles Prismatic Barrier absorption but lasts only 4 seconds. When broken, grants temporary damage immunity and Invisibility. Use during massive burst.

Slows the target you use Arcane Barrage on and increases your movement speed by a solid amount for 5 seconds. Great for kiting and sticking.

Improved Mass Invisibility is an extremely good PvP talent defensively since it massively reduces the cooldown of this ability, down to 1-minute.

Alternatives

Creates a wall of ice blocking line of sight. Use offensively to prevent enemy healers from connecting to their ally, or defensively to peel.

Super useful against Restoration Druids, allowing you to remove their HoT effects before you deal heavy loaded burst.

Great for Solo Shuffle as this removes the healing effect from Polymorph and provides a Versatility boost when enemies are affected.
