Properties
Affects Spell nature starfall [Arcane Missiles]

Improved Arcane Missiles is a mage talent that reduces the chance that Spell nature starfall [Arcane Missiles] will be interrupted by damage. This talent does not apply to interrupts from abilities that also lock out a school, such as Spell frost iceshock [Counterspell], Ability kick [Kick], or Ability warrior shieldbash [Shield Bash], and it does not apply to Ability priest silence [Silence] effects. It only reduces the chance that channeling time will not be lost due to taking damage.

Improved Arcane Missiles is most useful to solo play, especially for lower-level mages that use Arcane Missiles while an enemy is beating on them. While Arcane Missiles can always be recast after it finishes channeling, thus never losing its DPS, the lack of interruption makes it more mana efficient when used while taking damage. For mages that don't take much damage while casting Arcane Missiles, or do not use the spell often, this talent is not as useful.
