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

Never sim patchwerk even when comparing trinkets. It gives you a number that's completely skewed for arcane. And what ilvl is your terminus that a 970 gorothi trinket is better? I don't only do sim, I usually test them in real situations, and compare between my kills, differences in trinket output ...

Btw Saii, I see you are using Decimator and Terminus trinkets for ST fights? I know they are great trinkets for aoe, but why using it on ST? Well it depends the fight actually, my decimator is 970 which make it fine for st aswell, it does usually 6-8% dps by itself, and I mostly use terminus on spe...

You seem to lack a shit ton of crit. (for instance I have 39% crit, 31% haste, 26% mastery and 16% versa using kilt/archmage) After checking your last kills, you seem to move way too much and have a lot of downtime (around 26%), arcane isn't a mobile spec at all, the more still you are, the more dps...

You seem to lack a bit of Crit-Versatility and have too much mastery. As Arcane I try to keep my crit-versa-hate on the same level, also your first trinket isn't that great for arcane. Arcane loves having damage trinkets because of the raw Damage% we can get during a burst. we are on the same realm ...

Really don't have much wiggle room with trinkets. Bird for st Bombard trinket aoe I don't think injector is that good and until legendary trinket Norgannons is probably going to be perma equip in every situation unless you get high tf of one of the non on use trinkets. First boss trinket isn't actu...
