ready for 6.0 ?

[herpyderpidy]

Hey guys, 6.0 will officially hit next tuesday and I have some questions.

With the removal of Hit, will the way we play mages in 6.0(lvl 90) will be any different or it will be the same as before ? Get Haste cap then switch to Mastery

Also, what about the rotation ? Will it still be the same good ol cast frostbolt, aply bomb, wait for cooldown and procs style or is it any different, especially with the new talents ?

[valdearg]

only half right

get the one and only multistrike item, get haste to the gcd cap.

and spam frostbolt till you get procs for Ice Lance or FFB.

the rest of your rotation depends on talents choice, if you take frost bomb, always cast it before you use your FoF procs.
Best is to wait for two procs or till its running out and then cast frostbomb just before you use your FoF procs.

this is just a rough explenation, you better read a little through this forum, there are others who will explain it way better than i can

[herpyderpidy]

so, it's pretty much the same thing as it was then



Also, another question. How's mana with the removal of Gems and Invoc ?

[valdearg]

didnt notice mana decreasing on ptr

[Berlinia]

Removal of reforging makes it impossible to go for a certain cap, unless you swap around gear

[herpyderpidy]

so... it means priorizing gear you roll on or need by your actual main stat and not going all-in on greed is now a thing ?

[Berlinia]

yes!

So, you have 6.0.2 on live US Servers?
Any comments? How to go for competitive DPS for the next 4 weeks?
Which talents, which glyphs, which equipment, how to play?
