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

For st yes ofc for aoe not because it was ment for m+, but i found my error for m+ i just simmed for a 2short duration, when i did a 10min 5bosses fight titans pulled ahead instead if my regular 1-2min 5boss sims. Seems i have to actually see ingame if i can keep the buff high up enough to make it ...

well yea that is at heroic what about mythic gear? With mythic gear it goes up maybe another 2~3% at most. Still under crit cap. Its kind of stupid that blizzard didn't design the class around this fact, considering we lost chest/shoulder/helm sources for crit. Well don't forget that your Heart of ...

So I went over to AMR and tried to stick in some Heroic Uldir gear (prioritizing crit where possible) and the highest amount of crit I could reach is around 24%. So yeah we're not reaching shatter cap until maybe the next raid after Uldir.

Personally I would like to see more interaction with Arcane Charges. Now that AE and missiles aren't by default affected I feel somewhat cheated - charges now feel only partly important whereas before it was bread and butter. Well, with War mode on, the Arcane Empowerment does increase AM damage pe...

Have they said anything about new legendaries? As the most recent PTR (24076), wowhead has datamined some legendary rings. So far, it seems that these rings omit secondary stats for giving you an extra talent. For example, the druid legendary ring gives Soul of Forest for all 4 specs. Allowing drui...

just make sure you collect fire/arcane gear just in case...

The problem has never been about gear. It's about collecting the right legendaries and the AP investment.

New 7.2 PTR Legendary changes (source)

Relevant section:

• Pyrotex Ignition Cloth
  • Phoenix Flames reduces the remaining cooldown on Combustion by 9 seconds (was 6 seconds).

I guess that increases the appeal of gloves with longer duration of Combustion in 7.2 Artifact trait?

What was once a smooth, reliable, and predictable rotation has turned into an RNG infested inconsistent nightmare. I think the change it to dissuade frost mages from doing that specific kind of build where you're extending IV as long as possible for the damage buff increases (in addition to haste)....

I don't share the view of people that Fire is going to be dead with these changes. This pass is the first step in changing this. If our peaks are lowered and our valleys brought up, we would still average out the same way. The problem here is that this statement is a big IF. And currently from what...

Any gear above 630 is viable. However, I would look into Baleful token gear. Since it can roll 100% multistrike, that would be the best source of gear.

Trinket selection is what I'm curious about. Does the class trinket work and is it any good in CMs?
