I have recently started a mage and have now got him (its a her really) up to level 21. I didn't bother with talents up until last level but decided to make some research and the impression I got was that a mix of arcane tree with either fire or ice seems a good way to go. SInce I didn't want to decide yet, I put my 12 points into the ARcane tree and so far it works great. However, in a few levels I think I will have to decide if I go ice or fire though and also how far down I will go in the arcane tree, so a few questions for advice.
It is my understanding that fire is more damage related while ice is more protection or survivability related. Right? What about focus on arcane or on fire/ice?
Considering I play a lot solo and don't instance that much and don't do any PvP, is there are sugestion for what might work out the best? Note, this is for a level 20 to 40 mage more or less, no point considering end game stuff.
ANy other general adivce about playing a mage that I might have missed so far? Or that is not obvious or easy to figure out by oneself?

There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
