Actually way better with just Arcane Anomaly I would say?Has anyone seen the Brainstorm trait? Damage % increase after evocating. Seems like that could be really cool if you save your charges going into evocate like you're supposed to

Re: How does everyone feel about 8.0 Arcane?
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. Another thing is mana in general, the flow of it and the way it is based o...

Re: A plea for help with my logs/DPS
1. Always go in to your burn with 3 AMs Excepting the initial burst and mini burst, I agree. And you might be actually right that I do not always do this. 2. Never interrupt your burn for anything, leave mechanics for other people during those 15 seconds. Hmm, I am not sure I want to be a complete ...

Re: A plea for help with my logs/DPS
BTW I did re-sim myself with other trinkets at my disposal including 915 Own, 910 arcanocrystal, 935 acrid catalyst injector. Of those only Arcanocrystal beats the Prototype Personnel Decimator and only by mere 6k DPS in total (1848308 dps versus 1854012 dps). I also did put on the double ring combo...

Re: A plea for help with my logs/DPS
Hey there! From what i can see you use the Prototype Personnel Decimator which is no good for Arcane at all, I would even take an 920 Sentinal Owl instead of it. ( Look Spreadsheet ) Granted, but my owl is merely 915 I think. But I did get Arcanocrystal recently so I need to re-sim with that. Part ...

A plea for help with my logs/DPS
Hey there, I have been playing Arcane for quite some time now but ever since Antorus I feel like I am slowly fading in performance. So I thought I would give it a deeper look but I figured I am not sure what is going wrong. Therefore here I am, asking fellow masters of arcane powers for guidance. I ...

Re: Running out of mana with shard
A bit late answer but still, I have to say that I tried double ring and had similar problems. I came there from using Kilt+Shard and hence I had low Mastery. For double ring to work, you need to stack mastery way higher. But that is not useful for when you actually don't want to run double rings, su...

Re: Low Parse for Heroic TOS
Also, I need to add that on Mistress you are going to severely underperform unless you go full retard AOE spam since that's how ppl get those crazy numbers there.

Re: Mantle of the First Kirin Tor Help
Losing your charges during AP without the ability to instantly regain at least 3 (e.g. 3 targets around) is usually a loss. That being said, you can make use of 2-piece set bonus and save your POM to instantly gain them and continue burning AE. Basically, you can toss out barrage, and based on wheth...

Re: M+ Talents/Legendaries?
Do you always run the single target build for Tyrannical? Upper Kara? Any deviations? Tyrannical is a very dps demanding check in high M+. You need to be able to dish out a lot of DPS. So yea, I go ST most of the time, only changing between Rune of Power and Incanter's Flow (for instance with Volan...

First of all, I am gonna say - good job and many thanks for the guide! Though I'd love to note that this guide is, in my personal opinion heavily oriented on single target raiding scenarios. Don't get me wrong, I would mostly agree with it because that's where arcane stands quite strong. However, fr...

Re: Two rings leggos - stats?
Thanks for the reply - it pretty much confirms my suspicions.
BTW I even have TSM and still it sims lower than Kilt+Shard, haven't tried Kilt + Soul TBH.
Guess I will be sticking to Kilt rather than overhauling my whole stats yet again in this expansion.

Two rings leggos - stats?
Soo, after some time I got my last possible arcane spec lego loot - the archmage ring. Therefore, I can now run two rings.. BUT.... My stat priority completely switched (mastery went high, I was using Kilt before). And even SimCraft cant pull more DPS out of two rings (compared to Shard + Kilt). So ...

Re: ToS Tier - Even worth?
I have pretty much the same problem myself - I only own 2 piece ATM and the difference seems really low. I even have the Kilt but I do not face mana issues so the extra discharge you can get from this isn't all that great. Also, I tried to use this instead of CU (taking Resonance instead) but this d...

Re: Gear for Tomb
On the remaibing fights mantles + Kilt will br awesome. If you actually test that and have results (even on normal), post it here along with your ilvl. Because from my experience, the Mantle pretty much sucks and you are still better off with the Shard. The mantle proc is just so random it might no...

Re: ...DPS high, Damage low, why?
Bursting AoE: yes, but it's not sustainable unless you're using Arcane Power on AoE. Even then, classes like Fire Mages, Assassination Rogues, DKs, Hunters, etc. all have sustained AoE that we cannot keep up with. Arcane's specialty is single target. We can contribute in AoE situations for sure, es...

6 sec only? That is ridiculously short time to make any reasonable use of itThe 2 set bonus only last 6 sec now. When did this nerf happen? That's pretty huge nerf
So its basically down to a free "charged up" talents it seems.

Super unimpressed with this legendary, used it in some mythic+10 runs was around 3% of my damage. Always fails to proc when it would be really useful.
