Ebonbolt usage with Glacial Spike
I searched through the latest posts in the glacial spike thread, from 6 months ago, but didn’t feel satisfied that I had an answer to this question. Currently when running glacial spike is it better to use ebonbolt on cooldown and fish for brain freeze procs before casting glacial spike, OR keep EB ...

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
I have myself figured out in regards to my timing issues.

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
After further testing last night I am VERY skeptical about wether the gear swap thing had anything to do with this at all. The testing I did lead me to the conclusion and this may already be obvious to a lot of people, but haste and latency have a huge effect on the proper timing of flurry. I tested...

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
I can concur with what Andrestes has said. For me to consistently get 100% shatter I have to Q up flurry with about 7 to 9 tenths of a second remaining on GS cast. Anything slower on flurry release and RnG rules.

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
I was not using whispers, the strangest thing, when I logged in this evening I simply removed half of my gear and put it back on suddenly my GS started to crit consistently. This was suggested to me by Charlie. Testing more tonight I am still finding a little bit of variance at shatter cap (33.44) r...

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
I'm down for that. Battletag is wowbagger#1549. I should be on sometime around 9MT. This is all frustrating and disappointing to me because I have stuck it out with GS since I started playing it several patches ago, and I was excited to have it validated, then to have empty boxes on Christmas mornin...

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
Nope not playing with super high latency, my latency usually about 50ish ms home and world. It is such that I can usually release flurry before my glacial spike cast is complete and have it fire off immediately following.

Re: Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
I suppose it IS possible that is happening, but I do my order hall tests on the raiding dummy from about max distance from the dummy, half way up the stairs. And I don't see significant damage done to any other targets, on occasion my frozen orb will curve ball and shoot one of the lesser dummies to...

Shattering glacial spike: timing flurry
Is there a crucial point at which to actually release flurry after casting glacial spike in order to land GS inside the flurry debuff window? My testing this evening after I had to reinstall wow just to get logged in at all was pretty up and down on GS crits with flurry shatter. Running over shatter...

Highest glacial spike crits?
Moderator note: moved to Q&A. I am curious to know what other Mages running GS are seeing for highest glacial spike crits. Personally my highest crit in a normal dps setting wasn 11.5m and my mage currently is 870. 75% mastery and 36k ish buffed int. Highest I've ever done was 31m on dantalionax an...
