Doesn't look like fire changed much, Arcane and frost seem to be improved a lot.

My theory that Arcane will be the number 1 Mage in Argus will pan out given how awesome its looking. Frost blizzard and bolts are also such an eye candy.

i think fireball and pyro look a bit more ''beefy'' when travelling to target..other than that not much for fire

Fire just got an entire new set of spell effects in 7.0, so the fact that they gave us further improvements for the spec is nice, considering it was entirely unnecessary.

Frostbolt and Blizzard definitely look nicer, but a bit too sharp and bullet like, rather than a chunk of ice. Flurry looks really bad and I'm not sure why they even bothered changing it since it was a brand new animation to begin with.

Arcane's are fantastic, but Evocation still looks like garbage. I'd love to see the old vanilla/early BC evocation funnel back, that was significantly better looking.

No one has mentioned the new Ice Lance...you're throwing ice javelins from each hand...that is amazing.

Looks like they are adding the buffered textures from D3 and the projectile movements for Arcane Missiles, looks good IMO. We already knew we were playing the D3 MMO anyways.
