Re: Sugge's [Mage] Guide to Blackrock Foundry [Heroic]

That is why I mentioned priority targets. I never made mention of "full yolo aoe". Every dps isn't a fire mage. We can maintain excellent single target, while pumping out ridiculous cleave with the exact same rotation.

Re: Sugge's [Mage] Guide to Blackrock Foundry [Heroic]

I do significantly more dps on Blast Furnace as fire vs arcane. Looking at my priority target dps, it is as high, or higher than anyone else in my raid, while obviously doing significant cleave damage. Must just be a comp thing.

Re: Another Combustion Trick? 2T17+PC

Any confirmation that this doesn't work anymore? There is no confirmation because there is no reputable claim that anything has been changed. To repeat again: there is no bug, no weird interaction, and everything is working as intended. There is no obvious candidate for a "fix", and any change that...

Re: Sugge's [Mage] Guide to Blackrock Foundry [Heroic]

Ok that explains alot... Tho I read that Fire got 15% increased crit instead of 5% but I must have missed other buffs... I can't remember reading anything about Arcane getting buffed... Is there something else buffed with fire except for the 15% instead of 5%? That is all Fire received buff wise. T...

Re: Another Combustion Trick? 2T17+PC

Often getting better results by dumping one more pyro after 2x IB into it before combustion. How are you getting better results this way? The idea is to spread the big ignite from PC to the boss, the combusting the boss. If you burn your IB's first, that last Pyro is wasted on the crystal. Or are y...

Re: Fire mage trinket comparisons for BRF!

Looks like Copeland's was nerfed on PTR. Tooltip was showing me 1100 spellpower. Looking at the character sheet, I was getting 1210 spellpower, still well below the 1467 we are getting now. Copeland's has been 1100 spellpower since like week 2 of the expansion. I don't know why I thought it was ner...

Re: 4-set bonus

Interesting. I have been using 2pc and 3 hwf since the patch hit. Seemed like having 80% Pyro crit was enough to reduce the need for 4pc.

You click buffs-Potent Flames, and there is a handy graph plotting out the stacks in WCL.

Re: [TC] SimC Analysis of Haste vs Mastery at 588 BiS

I haven't seen this discussed in irc, but have you guys done any comparisons of simc 2pc uptime vs actual parses? Obviously, haste is somewhat devalued with higher 2pc uptime, so analysis of realistic uptimes could be relevant

Re: [TC] SimC Fire Mage APL

This is fantastic, and seems to be very much in line with what we are actually seeing, both in dps comparisons to Arcane, and what we are seeing from top Mages regarding haste and mastery levels. Thanks for all the hard work guys!

Re: Mage Gear Help!

I would definitely recommend sticking with the 4 piece. Even though the Jugg pants aren't itemized very well, you are going to lose out if you drop 4 piece without compensating with 3 optimal HWF off set pieces, all fully upgraded. Even then, the jury is still out as to whether that is worthwhile or...

Yeah, glyphed cone of cold rocks of you're in melee: it deals massive damage and the slow effect is very potent there. You guys do seem to have a survival strategy though. I run glyphed CoC for Arcane on that fight. I just found more consistent damage and survival with fire. As such I mostly focuse...

Re: Alter Time

One might say it's being... "Altered"

It's a big reason the name occurred to me. Can you think of the other 3 reasons I pitched the name "Altered Time" to Kver and Dutch?
Don't think I qualify to answer that one. Pretty sure I suggested one of those three reasons.
