Re: multistrike cap - this question again

I am not aware of any MS caps but if you look at your stat Scaling graph for your current talent selection. MS continues to outpace Haste and Mastery for quite a while yet.

TL:DR. You're fine. Keep stacking MS if you want.

Re: Arcane mage guide for raiding by Dutchmagoz! [6.2 update

1) Is there any change to my opening rotation? I'm not sure if I should delay PC so that it is hit by the explosion from the ring. On the assumption that you are using PC and the ring is used on pull (and you are playing Arcane), then the only change is you want to put the Crystal down as soon as p...

Re: Frost Talents, Stat Weights, Racials, Trinkets, FAQ

If it has not been listed at all, it has been missed off the list of possible combinations, not that it is a poor performing trinket.

Re: How to burst correctly? *Arcane*

Getting those kinds of bursts are going to be pure RNG. E.g. You manage to get MoD on Crystal and as you are spamming AM on your Crystal, you are also getting 4 set buffs. Putting your Crystal down earlier will help with this. With that said, I see you have the class trinket. Your burn now changes t...

Re: New Fruit Basket/Trinket Procs on Pull Toy?

I dont know if this is still the case, but there was some testing done after the fruit basket hotfix was applied that the fruit basket could still be used to proc trinkets but only if you were Worgen.

Re: Complete Mage Noob, Looking for some answers

Don't worry too much about gear for an OS. In most cases Intelect and Spellpower are the most import stats and you will have those from your main spec gear. If you have a chance to pick up some dedicated OS gear with a higher slant to Mastery or that you can gem / enchant differently then that is gr...

Im sorry i dont wanna cause trouble :-) but this pull rotation 4x ABs on pull: AP/AM the boss, drop crystal while in midair, it really doesnt create the damage compared to 1 or 2 arcane blast, crystal, AP and missiles on procced doom nova target. Example iron reaver on pull ring and hero is popped,...

I have a new question, which is kinda stupid but I figured I still want to ask it. I got 710 shoulders but dropped the normal tier ones (695) and I already have 2pc, so I was wondering if I get a chance to make the 4p should I replace my current shoulder to get the set bonus even if I lose signific...

Re: Please help me become at least DECENT :)

This is just a very quick look at your last Council kill. Due to clipping casts you missed the equivalent of 8 AM procs. I can see you are using them pretty quickly when you get to 3 x AM so it is more likely that you are clipping the last missile or two due to movement or starting the cast to early...

Re: Mythic hellfire high council issues

Just looking at the last log, I can see that you cast a few more Ice Lances than you had FoF procs where as the other mage didn't (in fact he had one proc over written). He was also a lot luckier with Brain Freeze procs (33 to your 24). The other mage used the 2nd DPS potion during hero when you did...

Re: Arcane - Room for improvements ?

I'm currently on my phone so I cant look in any great detail but one thing I see is you have very shallow burns. With HC WF trinket you should be making the most ogmf those burns but if you look at your burns vs AP usage it seems like AP is mostly over before you really start burning. https://www.wa...

Guys is it possible to stop pof activating right away by having it unequipped and only equipping it 4 seconds before the pull, that way the 10 second internal timer wont even activate till 7 seconds in, hopefully just in time to go on your pc just as you drop it. No. The timers are reset when the b...

Re: Arcane mage guide for raiding by Dutchmagoz! [6.2 update

No, the quote assumes MoD is not up. If like you said, you get MoD on 2nd of 3rd AB, then you use any AM's that you have into the target with MoD. You can put your PC down next to the target to also pick up on the MoD explosions or you can hold off on PC until you have exhausted all AM's and then us...

Re: Arcane Blast cast help

All fair points but if you are worried about your burn taking too long, just stop using AM at 65-70% unless you get to 3 x AM and that should make sure you don't burn for too long. Also, don't be afraid to burn deeper, the damage you do there cancels out the damage lost by the extra time casting Evo...

Re: Tome of shifting words help

Okay I see! The way I do my burn now is... I use all my missle procs, then lay down crystal, pop AP, double nova, use any AM charges on the crystal unless I have mark on the boss, and then just start going ham on AB's. Sometimes I will burn into the low 40s if AP is still up. That is the way you sh...
