As a casual wow player who usually gets frustrated with the complexity of some of these combinations of spells on builds, this guy has been a life saver. When i get home from a long shift of work and just want to escape into a few quest and profession skill ups its nice to just have a build thats good enough. i dont need a build that makes me amazing i just want to enjoy the basics of the game and this guy helps with that. easy to understand for a slow person like me. thanks so much for the help. Got to learn to crawl before i can walk.

I really liked your Fire video, so thought I'd check this one out too. I think there are a couple of major omissions from this rotation though, even for beginners to the spec. Glacial Spike is pretty much an essential talent now because our both of our tier set bonuses are based on it, and tier gear is easier than ever to get, even for someone that only does casual content. Using Glacial Spike actually makes the timing of Flurry a bit more nuanced than just using it on cooldown because you want to make sure that GS benefits from Winter's Chill (or being frozen) the vast majority of the time. The same goes for Comet Storm, which is another important ability that can benefit massively from Flurry. I don't know if you would be able to easily push up to 2.5k rating, or get the current curve achievement without taking advantage of GS and CS because you wouldn't meet the typical DPS expectations of most Heroic raid groups. All that being said, I do really like the format of your videos and I would love to see some more advanced/intermediate videos from you in the future!

So I am trying frost (I leveled as arcane), and I realized Comet Storm and Ray of Frost don't consume the Winter Chill stacks like single target spells do. Does that mean they don't benefit from the Winter Chill counting as frozen?
@JustS0meK1dd9 ай бұрын
@@Yursa_Luna Yes, they both benefit from Winter's Chill, even though they don't consume it. It is a good idea to do something like Flurry > Comet Storm > Glacial Spike > Ice Lance to make use of the debuff. Flurry > Comet Storm > Ray of Frost > Glacial Spike > Ice lance is also sometimes possible in your BL opener depending on your haste I believe

@@SargentD4 it literally does like .1% of damage, not even probably. The tooltip specifically says 20% damage reduction while images are up. I pop mirror before pulls soley because of 2 reasons: 1. When mirrors are out you generate zero threat. Even if you hit glacial spike for 800k, you will generate no threat allowing you to play more aggressively. 2. I pop it during boss phases when general damage is taken. This helps reduce the amount of healing necessary for your healer.

Your stats pyramid doesn't make sense. If Mast/haste are most important, why would you get crit past the soft cap- also why don't you explain the soft cap for mast/haste? Like are you even trying to help? Also, how do you figure Mirror Images are "utility" and not a dps cooldown? I don't profess to know everything about Mages, but you're simply not making sense on a fundamental level, and from what I can tell 2mins in, this is not a guide at all.

On Crit and applies to every class, yeah after 30% Crit you get 10% less stat. But Crit is random on that applied percentage. Think of this at the extreme level. If you have 50% Crit and 50%stat that directly improves damage 1 to 1 ration, than 1%Crit addition is not going to be felt as your likely to Crit anyways. While the damage increase is going to be there 100% of time. Ie, fire mages care about criting but don't take Crit on items much because there spells by default Crit at times. For frost the 33.3% is based on going over 1/3rd of the time criting in practice doesn't do much if anything.
