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

I just went back to TV after being GS since patch launched. I found myself doing a bit better as TV. Lower skill cap, frees up room to worry about other stuff during progression, etc. Also a tad less RNG dependent.

Combustion nerf is only on pvp. on pve unchanged so far

Ok, I see it now. Still will need a big base damage buff IMO. We're already mediocre right now, will only be bad if these changes aren't made up for.

Ice floes gone. Its still there, just moved talent tiers. Ice Floes Makes your next Mage spell with a cast time shorter than 10 sec castable while moving. Unaffected by the global cooldown and castable while casting. Max 3 charges. Mage - Level 75 Talent. Instant. Frost Mage - Level 30 Talent. Inst...

Pretty clear fire will need a retuning after this. Flame On Immediately grants 2 charges of Fire Blast Reduces the cooldown of Fire Blast by 3 seconds and increases the maximum number of charges by 1. Fire Mage - Level 60 Talent. Instant. 45 sec cooldown. 45 sec cooldown. Might be better overall? Bu...

P.S. There is a picture somewhere on this forum explaining damage modifiers on gorefiend. Pretty sure it helps!

Care to point me in the right direction? My initial searches yielded nothing.

So I'm not crazy, cool, just wanted confirmation. Looks like the top logs don't really do anything to combat this bug so I suppose I'll just continue as normal.

Only fire has an issue with gorefiend, as you're only doing normal damage to your crystal so your ignite is not getting any benefit from the 100% damage increase. Arcane there is no problems as your crystal damage cleaving onto boss is getting increased. But, say there is a gorebound spirit next to...

Unrelated to most of the thread, but does Gorefiend's 100% damage taken increase mess with the prismatic crystal and the ring explosion? I usually get ~3 million rings on Gorefiend, which seems low considering he takes 100% more damage and I'm usually around 2.5-3 million without that big of a damag...

It's in the official notes now, icicle shouldn't proc it anymore.

Was helping a friend's guild with H maidens. The 20 seconds of combustion DPS. 4.4 million damage from 1 combustion

IN_MI_TV consistently simming ahead of IN_MI_PC for me since getting 4 set. Is this happening to anyone else? Will link profile if no ones experiencing something similar. Your armory profile is not using Glyph of Splitting Ice. Oh dear lord. I wonder how long this has been going on. Probably just d...

Was hard for me to get anywhere close to these numbers on dummies without full raid buffs. Noticed larger ignites but definitely not anything like I'm seeing here. However was just in a normal maidens and got a combustion to hit for 31k using IF/kindling. 2 FB/Pyro then 2 more Pyros after that durin...
