How you get it
No trainer level in the client data
The tables we read record no trainer level for Arcane Surge. That usually means it comes with another ability, a talent or a quest rather than a level-up visit to the trainer; we have not confirmed which in game.
In Season of Discovery, Arcane Surge was a rune engraved on gear. In Forever it is an ordinary Mage ability, one of 13 former runes the class keeps.
An “X” in the description is a number the client text does not resolve; the real value is only visible in game.
