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

This isn't really a question that needs a long answer. Frost and Fire both do very similar boss damage. If you need less cleave then Frost is better. If you need more cleave then Fire is better. I don't believe boss damage or mobility concerns have significant enough differences to favour one spec a...

I've seen very good parses from people doing both things and rikh always gets good logs and he actually cancels the fb cast to use the ice lance price to avoid munching. I think the difference between all 3 options is incredibly minor and I think the more important thing is to think about mobility a...

This whole conversation is confusing to me. I thought everyone would just be spamming their next spell when they get close to the end of a cast time. You don't wait until you've finished casting before you hit the next one you spam it so it queues asap. Only exception would be for example arcane mis...

I'm currently at 27% crit, maybe that's the explanation.

Yeah, I found my self at 27% crit not shattering all the time. It's crazy how much DPS difference you will see once you hit the cap. I jumped from 500k to 700-800k sustained.

You didn't gain 250k dps by adding 6% crit strike chance.

It's the best talent on that row for now and still will be for frost next patch. But you don't change your casts based on how many stacks you have. Just treat it like a passive that sometimes gives you bonus damage. Any gains you get by playing around it are tiny so it isn't worth it because when yo...

I am using Blizzard when I drop frozen orb. I thought that the Orb + Blizzard (instant cast) would be a DPS increase. I don't believe it's ever a dos increase to cast a single target blizzard except with that funky blizzard legendary. Keep in mind that the blizzard cast was probably the least impac...

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/3kqRN86QFhTVDaZM#fight=48&type=casts&source=509&view=timeline" target="_blank Had a quick look through your casts for the 50 seconds or so. A few things I noticed: * Not using double ice lance after a flurry even with Time Warp and Icy Veins * Not using Flurry af...

So with ToS around the corner I was wondering are the sims on first page still relevant? For those of us that hate that water elemental and thus the whole spec can we just pick Lonely winter and forget about it and still be ok dpswise? Not updated yet so I recommend you check the Glacial Spike guid...

Good news for you if you aren't comfortable with double ice lance is that in 6 days it will be patched out. I believe it will still be technically possible with very high haste or by using shimmer but is recommend you just don't worry about it anymore. Just focus on getting rotation correct and maki...

I take it from the logs that you are attempting to do Flurry -> Ice Lance -> Ice Lance (double ice lance) while you have heroism and icy veins up. Unfortunately just in the first 30 seconds of your Trilliax Mythic log I can see that you did 3 flurry -> double ice lances and the second one didn't sha...

I just had a quick look and even in just the first 27 seconds of Trilliax Mythicyou do your opener wrong and you use 2 Ice Lance's that don't shatter (which should never happen). You also cast 3 Ice Lances after a Flurry which is a pretty easy mistake to make at high haste but is something you can a...

To see if spells are shattering you need to see the damage ...

Just getting into Warcraft logs myself and had a quick question. How do you see peoples haste on WL's ?? I can get the pins and queries but I'm not seeing anything for personal haste. If you select the right character then click Summary then you can view their haste rating before the fight. If you ...

Hey, This is in wrong sub-forum so it will probably be moved. After I'd analysed the logs the thing that is very apparent to me is that you have no idea how to actually do the double Ice Lance so I sort of regret going through them in so much detail as I really think it's going to be meaningless unl...
