Season of Discovery Build Theorycrafting

World of Warcraft Season of Discovery revolutionizes Vanilla class dynamics by merging standard 51-point talent trees with game-changing Rune Engravings.

1. SoD Total Build Composition
SoD Build Power=Talents(Tree₁ / Tree₂ / Tree₃) + ∑ Runes(Gear Slots)
2. Synergy Scaling Condition

Step-by-Step Build Breakdown (Mage Frostfire / Hot Streak SoD Spec)
Step 1: Allocate 36 Points into Frost Tree (Shatter + Ice Shards)
Shatter grants +50% critical strike chance against frozen targets, amplifying Frostfire Bolt burst.
Step 2: Engrave Synergistic Runes (Head: Frostfire, Chest: Fingers of Frost, Legs: Hot Streak)
Fingers of Frost triggers frozen state procs for Shatter; consecutive crits trigger instant Hot Streak Pyroblasts.
Step 3: Aggregate Final Build Specification
Final Spec=15 / 0 / 36 (3/3 Runes Engraved)
