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

Can we get a listing for each spec that shows not only the T2 Crucible traits, but also includes + weapon level and the the relic weapon traits.

Here is an example of what I mean which is for Shadow Priest - https://imgur.com/hhbWGf4

I keep thinking to myself "maybe i'll get fire legos and swap back to fire come later into T20 or T21 maybe". Then I read it's still in an awkward and shitty place and wonder why I bother with those thoughts. I am geared for frost and started as fire in legion. Never got one of the good fire legos ...

Attempt to put what my mind rambles on about this; By dropping T19 2pc you drop Enhanced Pyrotechnics to 10% from 30%. At 40% crit, you are going to see streaks of 6-7 non crit fireballs versus current 3. Going to be some painful periods after a combustion burn where your damage drops into the toile...

For me Fire is the most fun playing with Helm (and AF talent) and belt legendary's. Am trying Bracers, however my big issue with those is the RNG on them. Some pulls it feels like I should have upped Helm to 970 before bracers. If I had to say which legendary was mandatory for fire, it would be the ...

OK color me confused, prior to release of 7.2.5 there are 10 fire mage legendary's. Are you all counting crafted here, which have no impact on a legendary drop? Because otherwise having 12/12 in fire (hell even arcane and frost are currently 10 ea) is not currently possible. Personally just hit 10/1...

Some of my thoughts... Is SimC actually using Fire Blasts sub 30% with belt, I am constantly using those to skip scorch and get a HS, typically because my HS Pryo didn't crit. Only time I don't is if Combust will come off cooldown in next 10 seconds. One would think both of those devalue haste. What...

2pc T19 - one fireball without a crit gives you 30% additional crit chance on next cast, so in theory to limit yourself to a crit every other fireball in a worse case scenario... 70.01% crit would be where crit value drops off. So at 70.01% crit, worse case you would cast 2 fireballs to get a HU pro...

Personally I would be fine with this nerf if they had also buffed Fireball and therefore our sustain. All this nerf does is make us fight harder for the sustain damage between combusts.

Also I wonder how much this nerf is tied into our Artifacts soon giving us 1/20 (or 5% fire damage).

Yea, I figured as much, will try to get some logs showing it happens. Had it consume a FB during HU last night and didn't get a HS, but no log. I was in the Withered Scenario, but doubt that is any help. My stats, crit is 57%, and am still seeing 5-6 casts to get a crit, hopefully I can log a few of...

Sitting at 57% crit, every night I am seeing 2-3 instances where I go 4-5 fireballs without a crit. At 6 fireballs to see a crit, should that not be something I see once a month not every night? To me an outlier should be on 4th cast not 5th or 6th. Makes me wonder if something is wrong in how it do...

Due to reading on this site, Flamestrike I just about never use. AoE (run Kindling), if 3+ I go RoP (at DB range), LB, DB and then try for PB's while maintaining LB and DB on cool. Try to use Combust on the bigger packs. Hoping with Mythic+ we start seeing larger trash pulls, otherwise will continue...

Komma, Frosted, et al... thank you for the overview

I have been doing this as my opener when specced into TV, idea being to immediately add 4 secs to IV and should allow you to reach a second water jet before IV drops to extend it another 4 secs pre-pot at 1 sec start frost bolt halfway thru that, hit water jet another frostbolt IV and Mirrors burn I...

Frozen Orb has always had pathing issues, much the same as Blink does. My biggest issue with Orb is convincing tanks to keep the mob(s) in the orb. A good spot to see pathing issue on FO, in garrison, facing fountain and looking towards profession building. The path to your left leading towards herb...

Interesting, it's in the same line that what I experienced on Kar'gath last week. Did you use a macro to bind Water Jet ? Did it happen only in the Butcher fight ? OK I did get ripped into stands on Kargath (it was LFR) so that probably explains Water Elemental issues. No I did not use a macro to b...

Today I did LFR, and jumped down to Butcher, with the following consequences; 1) Water Elemental was still present, simply would not attack. 2) It removed Water Jet from my Pet Bar and put it back to Auto (it was hi-lited in pet spell book). 3) Mirrors did not attack. Resolved 1 by re-summoning Wate...

OH multistrike sorry. He said he looked it up.

He's being silly. MS doesn't actually "cap" until 200%.

Pretty sure during Beta they moved MS down from 200% to 100% scaling.

Welly just frickening goes on hiatus way too much. Constantly finding myself having to summon his ass because I zoned. And that dungeon in Spire, every single time you enter and finally land, summon Welly Frostbolt is right next to useless in damage, some mobs when all I have is Frostbolt, take an e...

Having to damage both targets for cleave to work kinda defeats the whole point of cleave. Has anyone asked via twitter?

Did you not include a Meta/Bloodlust DPS number? Because 27431*1.2 = 32917

Otherwise 27431/28148 is ~2.6% gain

The sim isn't optimized for no ice lances. I'm getting the 20% from the spreadsheet.

Ah, thx Dutch.
