Trial of Valor Loot

[Saffina]

Moderator note: moved to Q&A.

Is this quite possibly the worst raid for Arcane mages regarding loot?

And i thought EN was bad :/

[Vhella]

Pretty bad indeed apart from the arcane relic Ravens' Sight I suppose.

I thought it's good for Arcane. It doesn't seem to have high preferences in secondaries. In fact, priorities seem to often shift anyway.

If You're aimimng for mastery, then one of back (mastery/vers i think) is fine, but not great.
Generally ye, it's shitty.

Wanted to bring up a new topic of discussion in regards to Heroic Odyn, in Trails.

This is a LONG fight...7-10 minutes?

When looking at logs for arcane mages there are only 147 kills (as of 11/14/16). the bis legendary arcane mages are around 300 (99 percentile at 360/380k dps)... and then it drops down to average 200k then 100k dps... this fight is NOT arcane friendly.

does anyone have any tips for our fellow arc mages for this fight?

here are some notes from my experience.
1.This fight is hell for Arcane Familiar, died every other minute... swapped to WoP.
2. Rune of Power seemed to trigger mechanics EVERYtime I dropped it. With constant moving to soak light, spread out for horn, focus adds... I might look into MI/IFlow.
3. I tried resonance for the rune/adds phase, barrage can hit multiple targets but might stick with SN.

Due to the length of this fight I might stack as much mastery as possible... any fellow Arc Mages cleared Heroic Trials or have any other advice?
