Pyretic Incantation Uptime

[votetokick]

Moderator note: moved to Q&A.

I was wondering if this buff determines the fire mage rotation, is it possible to consciously montior this buff throughout the fight or is it something more of a by product of hitting your normal rotation?

the same with Ignite, do fire mages usually worry about Ignite uptimes?

It doesn't really change your rotation ever, however you do want to be mindful of it during combustion for wiggling sinew procs but really there's no interaction on your part other than stacking crit as far as I can tell

It doesn't really change your rotation ever

I wouldn't phrase it that way because it's the main reason cinderstorm is used before combustions but it doesn't change the rotation in an active way, yeah.

Haha I was just thinking of the five stack PI cinderstorm strategy for CiS users, thanks for the addition

how come I see simcraft scores with 75 per cent pyretic uptime whereas my skada for Xavius shows only 8 per cent buff uptime for pyretic? - btw I was 300k dps on Xavius normal testing without once filling nightmare bar to the full

[Zulandia]

There is no way your pi uptime at any stack is only 8℅. Link that log.

Additionally a sample of 1 is not conclusive. You could see more logs too. They might be even better than sims sometimes for reaching conclusions though harder to do so.
