'''[[PvP talent]]s''' become available at level 20. Up to 3 PvP talents may be active at any given time (with additional slots becoming available at levels 30 and 40).
−
'''[[Glyph]]s''' are ability enhancements created by [[Inscription|scribes]]; characters can equip up to six glyphs at one time. Three '''Major Glyphs''' that significantly enhance the character's major abilities and three '''Minor Glyphs''' that add cosmetic effects or minor enhancements. Most glyphs enhance existing abilities, but a few grant entirely new ones.
  
  +
  +
These talents are active in the open world with [[War Mode]] turned on, as well as during instanced PvP. They have no effect in dungeons and raids.

Once learned, glyphs are a permanent addition to a character's arsenal. They can be swapped out any time outside of combat using [[Vanishing Powder]] for characters level 25-80, [[Dust of Disappearance]] for characters level 81-85 or [[Tome of the Clear Mind]] for those at 86 or above, or by visiting a class trainer. Glyph slots become available at levels 25, 50 and 75. All glyphs can be used from level 25.

Talents

Talents become available at level 15. Only one talent can be chosen from each tier.

They can be swapped out any time outside of a rested area using Inv relics libramofgrace [Tome of the Tranquil Mind].

Template:Mage talents

PvP talents

PvP talents become available at level 20. Up to 3 PvP talents may be active at any given time (with additional slots becoming available at levels 30 and 40).

These talents are active in the open world with War Mode turned on, as well as during instanced PvP. They have no effect in dungeons and raids.

Glyphs

Glyphs are items that can change a spell or ability's visual appearance. Most glyphs are crafted by scribes, are color-coded by class, and can be applied as early as level 11. They can be removed at any time outside of combat using Inv misc dust 02 [Vanishing Powder].

Teleportation

Mages can learn to teleport themselves and open up portals for their party members for instant travel to friendly capital cities by visiting a portal trainer. Portal trainers are typically found nearby the mage trainers in each capital city. Since patch 5.0.4, neither teleports nor portals require reagents.

Extra spells

These spells are alternate versions of trainable spells, with some functionally identical, but possessing a different icon or other cosmetic difference. There are also several other miscellaneous spells which provide other effects. They are learned through books, items, or given as quest rewards.

Polymorph: Polar Bear Cub 11 Inv misc book 07 [Tome of Polymorph: Polar Bear Cub] drops from polar bears, notably the Arctic Grizzly in Dragonblight.
