Altered Time - your #1 World of Warcraft Mage resource!

Oh yea my bad, just posted here thinking oh its fire related -_-. Could a mod move this? Also, thanks for the reply. Could you explain your choices? Especially on short fights where you lust on pull like trilliax and anomaly i thought ring would pull ahead since you can buff both your mirror image c...

Moderator note: moved to Q&A. Hello, its been a while since i posted but I'm having some issues i need to get sorted out. So i have the Shard, bracers and belt and i'm having difficulty choosing which combination to equip for which fight. Like bracers are relatively unreliable given that you might ...

When your using the Ruby+chest combo, when does a higher ilvl chest outweigh the dps granted by the combo?

Where can i find good class videos of mages in legion?? Especially gameplay videos in mythic+ dungeons and the like. Also interested in looking at Hunter pov's. Please let me know if there are any regular youtubers/streamers who do this. I've searched on youtube and never found much for mythic+

Okay thanks. I'll give it a shot tonight and let you know how it goes!

Ahhh dang. Thanks! About the other stuff?

I have 194 haste and getting ib before 5th ignite tick is no problem. 810 cap with my (troll) profile might be because robomage doesn't combustion correctly and the extra ~600 haste helps with ib multistriking. This. Robomage: IB wait gcd Combustion/IB (on the same global) We want this: IB/Combusti...

Do you go for any kind of haste at all? Or just crit/mastery all the way? Like is there a minimum amount to try and reach? And secondly, non-bl pulls, i just fb+pyro, fb+pyro+pyro+pyro into combust, cuz it nets me a 60k or so ignite. Should i just skip the second fireball+pyro in favour of double db?

Do i hold second combustion and 3rd meteor for DMF trinket proc? Or just use it on cooldown? Or do i hold combustion till i get the DMF proc but use meteor on cooldown?? I tried a few times but nothing to actually let me know which way to lean. ANd when u say LB is no longer a dps loss on single tar...

This has been mentioned here and there in a few posts. I decided to make a topic cuz it's really nagging me. I know that according to SimC CC is not that high up once u get mythic shards, runestone etc but that being said i feel like the damage bonus provided by PC coupled with CC to get big ignites...

IN_RoP_PC is better for single target even if we use mythic shards? I'm just wondering if the haste would make MI pull ahead. And between mythic shards, hc runestone and dmf trinket (670) what would be the best combination? I know according to sims its runestone+shards but i'm just curious if the dm...

I feel like Copeland's Clarity is far better than the shards even now. In my experience the bigger the ignite the better the combustion and that much better your dps is. Why i think so is because the sheer contribution combustion makes to your dps is astonishing. While it might not be that big a dea...

But off late i seem to see a HUGE increase in number of top parses with kindling, maybe its just coincidence that everyone i checked had that, but i dont think so.

Most of the high end logs that i see have players using Copelands Clarity. As per the trinket sim, this is not the most ideal trinket when you have hc/mythic shards and runestone yet people still go for CC. Any idea why?

So i'm trying to read logs and its fine for the most part but some parts however i'm at a complete loss. Here are some things i'd like to see broken down: Whats the value of ignite before a player casts combustion? What all buffs does the player have and what spells does he use before he uses combus...

It does, tyvm for the reply. Here are some more logs, wipes on hc imperator unfortunately. The first few tries are frost and i would like some input on that as well. I know for a fact i can do much higher dps tho i cant quite seem to figure out how. I think my opener as frost is pretty messed up. ht...

Need dps pointers cuz i feel like i can do better for sure. Logs from 2 fights, i know its not enough but ill give you more today. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/n4ZWy3tGHV8c6mNA#fight=2 Armory http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/ragnaros/Petfood/simple Also i notice people with CC seem to b...

With what gear does RoP become better than MI on single target? :O

Idk if this has been covered but for MI+TV + shards, do we hold off on using MI+shards for IV so we can get maximum value cuz of extending IV with TV?

I don't specifically look at ignite because I just my intuition more instead of tracking it, I just base off my combustion. However at the ilevel I would go for: ~1.5k Combustion ticks - Bad (awful on pull) ~2k Combustion ticks - Average (bad on pull) ~3k Combustion ticks - Good (Average on pull) ~...
