The issue with the double rings is the same as using RoP. If not utilized correctly it can result in a huge dps loss. As mentioned above playing with double rings is very challenging, so you might have to look at what you want to accomplish. But, using kilt isn’t as big of a dps loss and some peopl...

Not true, the sims are wrong (as they always are). 3 things you can do with kilt that you can't with double ring. 1. Track Touch of the magi and when it procs spam AB in to it as hard as you can. 2. MoA and ROP then spam until it runs out. 3. If you have 1 stack of missiles at 4AC you can hold on t...

Some clarification: 1) I put T19 on for giggles last night & logged out with it on. So disregard that. 2) I regemmed & re-enchanted for Vers. 3) I was lazy for about 6 months prior, and I didn't do much of ToS so my gear options were limited. Some questions: 1) Can you clarify how to take advantage ...

Can you please link a video that goes over more than just the burn phase and opener? I need clarification on the conserve phase. Are we seeking to stay above 90% mana the entire time? I have seen other guides on this forum that suggests staying above 10%. Any clarification would be great.

Please post a video going over rotation in depth for 7.2.5. There are a couple out there, but in both videos they say "oh, I messed up" and they only show one iteration of the rotation (one burn and one conserve). I would be interested to see how other arcane mages adapt to the cooldowns not lining ...

Can someone direct me to the nearest 7.2.5 rotation guide similar to this one? Thanks!

Is it just me or did the "How to Play Arcane (Rotation, etc" sticky guide disappear from this forum?

Just looking for confirmation with the mage community on the proper use of Kil'jaeden's Burning Wish to clear up a dispute. I ran a few tests on the target dummy and it seems that this trinket only "stacks" or benefits from 1-5 stacks of Pyretic Incantation. It does not gain anything from Combustion...

Latest logs: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/rhVW9RMAdw6b2P8J" target="_blank A mage with worse gear than me but with the legendary helm is outdpsing me on most fights. I have asked for help on this forum before, but I am at a loss. I have been playing since '06 through every expansion doing hi...

Just to add to this. I am not looking for anyone to pour through my logs in depth. I'm sure there is a blatant error that I am missing. I *think* it might be cast time & movement, but I'm not sure how to fix that. I just recently changed my UI up & selected the "queue action upon button press" inste...

Please help me analyze & identify why I rank so low opposed to other mages in my guild. Here's my logs from last night's Mythic EN:

I have followed these forums for the last two expansions, and I feel like I need to reach out for help with a couple of topics. I have been playing a mage since launch, and I have only taken a break during Cataclysm and the early part of Mist of Pandaria. I have always been in a hardcore to semi-har...
