What Arcane Mages need for PvP

[:1]They need to be able to cast arcane missiles while moving. This will atleast give them a nice mobility option and it wont be op since its obviously a proc. I think blizz had the right idea with the old T12 set bonus just that it should be baseline or maybe glyphed/talented. Thoughts?
Can't agree more i guess im not the only one thats tired of being frost for PvP
First, at max level arcane missiles is mostly used to clear your arcane blast buff/debuff so you don't run out of mana rediculously fast.
Second, the tier sets are for PvE, if you were to wear them you would get @%%!d in PvP regardless of being able to move and cast arcane missiles.
Third, I really don't think arcane mages have anything to complain about. Easy, large amount of DPS, decent for leveling (in my opinion).
You've ever tried to burn your enemies? Ever pulverized 'em with your heat?
Fire might be a little bit more difficult to play than the other speccs, even though it was made easier with Cataclysm.
But it is great fun!

And that Arcane Missile thingy sounds good. Since they don't hit that hard anymore...

well...actually in PvP you really dont ever cast Arcane Missiles because its @#@% damage AND it's a channeling move which would be interrupted in a heartbeat....u usually just spam arcane blast and pop cooldowns and hope to god ur not targeted....

whereas if we got arcane missiles to cast on the run...we could frost nova, cast arcane missiles AS we are getting distance again...which makes Arcane much more viable in pvp

Took the words right out of my mouth. Well said. Basically its about as good as scorch AND it has a proc so I cant see any reason not to have this castable while moving, yet fire mages get to spam scorch all day.
