Re: Fire Trinket Discussion Megathread
The bough is extremely random. More random than Aran's ruby. So random that Lexi from Method guild isn't using it. Anyway, I switched to the Aran ruby 860 from my Shock Baton 845+stocket... Aran's ruby seems to be doing more damage through its procs but I can't tell whether that makes up the 3% crit...

Re: Fire Trinket Discussion Megathread
What I see with the Aran ruby is that I'm gambling with it for ST fights.
It -may- do an insane amount of damage, but I'd rather have the consistency of the Shock Baton, over the randomness of Aran and the loss of 3% of my crit (over shock baton).

Re: Fire Trinket Discussion Megathread
Aran's Ruby is BIS for Mythic+ runs. Nothing compares to it.
On single target fights, it's extremely random. Did Heroic Ursoc last night and I don't it proc even once. On Nythendra it doubled the damage of what I'd get had I used the Shock Baton.

Re: [7.1] Fire mage guide for Legion, by Rinoa
Hi Asmodious, There isn't really a BIS gear list, due to the potential titanforge + socket of certain items. The general rule of thumb is stacking crit, but for fine tuning you will need to SIM yourself and make a judgement call. This is because the stat weights change depending on -your- current co...

Re: Fire: Perception vs Reality
The general consensus is that when the patch goes live (after x amount of iterations), it will -still- end up being a DPS nerf for the fire mage spec.

Re: 7.1.5 PTR Notes
I hate to bring this up, but look at how long the Elemental Shammy and Warlock had waited before their fixes came in. Blizzard will release the final PTR patch with turning to the fire mage changes, no doubt, but their history of patches suggests that it's still a significant nerf to the fire mages....

Re: Trying to understand why my max pyro is lower
Welfare potions are so cheap to make. 1 blood = 10 prolong power pots
It's compulsory to use them everywhere now.
You get like 2-4 bloods per mythic dungeon run, not to mention world quests drop them as well.

Re: Trying to understand why my max pyro is lower
Combination of whether he's standing in ROP, RNG with the crit and also whether he has 5 stacks of Pyrokinetic thingy (5 stacks of crit damage buff) when the pyro hit ?
Also whether he drank a Prolonged power potion or not...

Re: 7.1.5 PTR Notes
The thing is, did fire need to be nerfed? Changed maybe, but nerfed? Changed, maybe. Nerfed, no. But what we're seeing on the PTR is nerfs. Nerfs everywhere. Nerfs to the point where I'm scared when it become lives even after it's "tuned". The argument is that Fire has issues down the road, such as...

Re: New Arcane Legendaries (PTR)
Somebody on another thread posted a perma burn rotation on the PTR with the new talents. Opening burn to 40%, Arcane Power (with overpowered talent) and burn till AP is over by then which your mana is back up to 100%, burn again to 40%, cast evoc, burn to 40%. AP should be off CD by now, so cast AP ...

Re: 7.1.5 PTR Notes
It basically means - yes there is a nerf, but it won't be as big. But a nerf, yes.The worrying part of all those blue responses was the part where it said that they feel that the cries of "Fire is dead" are largely exagerated based on the current changes.

Re: 7.1.5 Spell Changes
I'm excited about the new Arcane changes... Quickening was my biggest gripe for the spec due to the delay in casting and possible dps loss if it ever fell off too early.
Arcane Power looks like the new Combustion.

Re: 7.1.5 PTR Notes
Flamestrike should NEVER EVER be part of a single target rotation even with Flamepatch. Why? Because of the targeting circle. You can't expect mages to do mechanics at the same time as manually moving the targeting circle to bosses when they're also using the right mouse button for camera movement. ...

Re: 7.1.5 PTR Notes
Are you sure it is a Flame On nerf during Combustion? 9 second recharge means that at least 1 recharge will occur during Combustion, maybe 2 if you have high haste. This could mean more Fire Blasts during Combustion, not less. I don't think Flame On recharges the Fire Blast according to the notes. ...

Re: Fire Trinket Discussion Megathread
Ask MrRobot has a feature where you can plug in all sorts of different trinkets (and set ilvls) to run simulations. It's pretty good. Results are very similar with Simcraft, with the benefit of actually trying out trinkets without having them in-game. There's a 6k dps difference between my Shockbato...
