70% is not the end of your burn phase, it is where you want to stop using AM procs as they happen during the burn phase and only use them when you hit 3 stacks of AM between 70% and ~50% mana to stop you loosing a proc. The reason for this to to help your burn phase sync with PC but also make sure you get a good number of burns into a single fight. (Every time Evo is off CD and you are not burning is possible wasted DPS).Opinion 1 (TLTeo & Wilderness): Burnphase is a CD and must be synced up with other CDs. We don't care about mana percentage, 70% is just an indicator to help, so u can use Evocate even at 80% for sync.
I suppose it lasts 22-30 sec depending on AM procs during burn phase
I really don't think this is what Dutch was trying to say when he responded to the question.Opinion 2 (Dutchmagoz): We are burning endlessly, but not when mana is below 60-70%.
. What I read from Dutch's comment is there is no hard and fast number. E.g. Stop burning after 45 seconds. If you kept going because you never dropped below a certain point, you would miss out on the mini hero that is the 2 set bonus which apart from the DPS increase from doing a burn is the reason you want to get as many burns in as possible.Is there a length that is too long for the burn to last?
If you are between 50% and 70% mana with 2 AM procs, keep casting AB until around 50% mana when you then use Evo. If your AM proc is about to drop off off, then use AM to make sure you don't loose that damage but you should be able to get to 50% without that happening and if you get a 3rd proc (which you will use no matter where you are in your rotation phases) it will reset the AM timer for you allowing you to save the last 2 procs for when you have reset and got back to 4 x AC again.So could you please help me to clear this question? I would like to play like TLTeo suggests, but what should I do in a situation, when I am between 50 and 70% mana, I have 2 AM procs and it is too early to finish burning. May I use AMs in this interval? I will try to hold the burn phase for 25-30 secs for sync.
