Re: What am i doing wrong?

I recommend trying the archmage ring instead of shard, It makes your life easier. Also try to get a terminus signal beacon trinket to replace catalyst, but catalyst isn't bad so that's not huge. Also try and switch out some of your mastery gear if you can, especially the ring. Okay so looking at yo...

Re: under-performing by 21-33%. please help!

Well I meant in terms of raw damage, 945 terminus does about 9m with rop and AP where as sentinel will do 14m to 17m. Where pretty far into the tier I figure most people that visit here have at least killed high command. Well it depends the fight actually, my decimator is 970 which make it fine for...

Re: under-performing by 21-33%. please help!

i have owl and terminus at 945 and owl does more, terminus is the same at 15 ilvls, and only better when 20 ilvls higher. Owl will only be higher on pure single target with absolutely no movement while it is up which is dadadada not a single fight in the instance. I also have a 945 owl and a 970 te...

Re: under-performing by 21-33%. please help!

Terminus replaces owl as your on use which pretty much doesn't get switched out for any fight in the instance.
Your other trinket is norgannons on pretty much every fight except Eonar and high command.
He also said he started late so his trinket might be low ilvl.

Re: [7.3+] Arcane Guide - Updated: December 3, 2017

I noticed that you use your second charge of RoP during the last few seconds of AP. Isn't that wasting time that you could be using the AP buff? It's 1 second which is more than made up for with relics. I honestly don't know where you would use it if you didn't use it there. And I mean if you ask t...

Re: [7.3+] Arcane Guide - Updated: December 3, 2017

Now my conserve since I use owl is a bit different. Normally blasting until 2-3 stacks unless I have wisdom. Wisdom is gods gift. You can go to 4 with wisdom with double ring. After getting the most blasts I can while staying above 30-35% I dump missles. Mini burst with owl You want to go in with 4...

Re: Struggling with stat priority

First off the lust ring was fixed after nighthold to have a second lust not affect you if you have the lust debuff. Tldr a shaman/hunter/Mage not using ring/ drums lusts so every Mage gets sated. Now that you are sated you can't benefit from anyone else's lust or timewarp but the one you cast. Bring...

Since I don't know what legendaries you run it may be different but this is with double ring, 4/2, and owl. Arcane opener with charged up is just a tiny bit different than normal.

Re: Struggling with stat priority

https://i.imgur.com/Cp2GY5C.png Doesn't look that tiny to me. Every person’s sim will look different. Linking someone else’s sim on a patchwerk style fight doesn’t mean much. Especially if said person can pull 2M+ dps, so they are probably extremely well geared and have highly optimized gear, unlik...

Re: [7.3+] Arcane Guide - Updated: December 3, 2017

Even if the stars align you're losing so much damage. On top of waiting so long to burst 99% of the time you're going to have to move out of your rune because you got a mechanic.

Re: Low Parsing Antorus - Arcane Mage

You can clearly get top 10 on a heroic boss accidentally. Or just doing heroic at a quick pace it's not hard to get top 10 especially as arcane. Don't think you're somehow being rewarded for being a good player. Generally top 25 know what they are doing and any higher than that it's who got the most...

Re: Low Parsing Antorus - Arcane Mage

I mean you're still wrong. Using pants over double ring on st is a damage loss. Just because you accidentally get a rank 7 on a heroic boss doesn't by any means prove you're correct. Yes playing with pants is very forgiving Yes playing with double ring is quite hard Will pants seem like a better opt...

Re: [7.3+] Arcane Guide - Updated: December 3, 2017

Because you waste quite a few gcds on your opening burst. When you take cu you get no decent precast that doesn't feel completely wasted. Open with a precast blast Cast cu Barrage Then cast mark and go on about your opening rotation for a minor damage buff that won't even last the full opener. Waste...

?? The only reason he's going to do more damage is because nobody taught him to use CDs properly. Pants certainly is a damage loss single target.

Re: Low Parsing Antorus - Arcane Mage

Mastery is not garbage for double ring. However you aren't using it and with the pants it's actually just a useless stat. First thing is we don't use prolonged we use deadly grace. We don't use haste either, regem/enchant for vers. Gear wise your t19 2p is extremely low ilvl and I doubt it out perfo...

Re: [7.3+] Arcane Guide - Updated: December 3, 2017

You go double ring for single target not patchwerk.
Gorothi
Hounds
Imonar
Varimathras
And arguably coven are all single target that you can and do use double ring for just seems a bit off since nobody has tier yet. I have no idea what you're talking about.

So what you just said is you want arcane to be easier to play. That's dogshit the only fun part about the spec is that if you do one the wrong your dps gets mutilated.
