==Development==
Arcane Orb was first shown at [[BlizzCon 2008]] when the [[Wizard]] was unveileddebuted. The spell only allowed one point in the [[BlizzCon 2008]] demo, but the [[BlizzCon 2009]] version had up to five. The damage had been ever so slightly tuned down in the newer version, and so had mana cost. Whether  Arcane Orb was available in the AoE damage Flux mentioned in his report truly is right or not we do not know yet[[BlizzCon 2010]] demo, but wasn't one of the Wizard's starting skills.
