Hey Hugg. Great videos on the ST and the mythic + builds. Appreciate the explanations. Maybe you are going to do a vid for a raid cleave build (like Court), but if not, what talent build would you use for that fight? Thanks!

Hiya! this reply is probably very outdated as your comment was a few weeks ago (sadly only now got time to visit and reply to comments :/ ) but If it's still relevant I would say you just play the normal ST build from DF with ray of frost and either frozen touch or coldest snap depending on your role and what you're comfortable with. I have a video on my channel with a silken court mythic kill so I would check that out if I were you ^^

Thanks for the video Hugg! I have a couple of questions: - with all cds down and glacial spike ready, do you still send every FoF proc you get, or do you spam frostbolt hoping for a brain freeze proc? - if you have FoF procs and Brain freeze procs (ie 2 flurries available), is it better to frostbolt into flurry to put flurry on cd, or is it better to use your FoF proces to get to 5 icicles for glacial into flurry? -I assume when you only have 1 flurry available that you should use your FoF procs to hopefully build into glacial spike shatter, instead of using frostbolt into flurry first? - I've read elsewhere that in icy veins using ray and commet storm is a dps loss, is this true? or do you only use these in the opener because its optimal, and you wouldn't use it in your next icy veins? I've also read in the opener to not use these, and that its just frostbolt into flurry icy veins then shattering every glacial and frostbolt with flurry when you have it - At 3:50 you send a flurry without a frostbolt or glacial before it. Is this a mistake, or something i'm misunderstanding? - we can send shifting power whenever icy veins is on cd? or do we want no flurry charges also? Sorry about all the questions, I'm new to frost mage and i've had some average parses on it thus far, so wanted to make sure i'm understanding correctly. Thank you again, love the content! This and the m+ rotation guides were very helpful in me swapping from arcane to frost

Hiya! No worries at all about all the questions, we are here to learn and help eachother out after all! 1. What I like to do if I have no flurry charges but I have FoF charge is cycle Frostbolt - Ice lance, this way you still sue your FoF charges without lettting them expire while also trying to find a BF procc. Ideally you do use all your FoF charges with this build. 2. Typically I will use a mix of both. If you have two charges you can do FB -> Flurry and then generate the last icicles with ice lance, or vice versa of FoF first and then FB -> Flurry -> GS even if it put you above 5 icicles. As you can see around 2:05 I use all FoF charges to generate my GS even though I have 2x flurries available. 3. I tend to use Frostbolt -> Flurry anyways as the said Frostbolt can also generate a new BF procc as well as any splinterstorms you might have coming out also being able to generate it. We want to try and shatter as many WCs as possible as it's our main splinter generator. With both Frostbolt and Flurry also having a chance to generate 2x icicles it could be enough with FB -> Flurry -> ice lance to generate a full GS that you then use on the 2nd WC from the flurry. 4. I haven't dug suuuper deep into sims as it tends to make me crazy. If you look at logs and even r1 parses in ST using ray they still use it almost on cd and in IV and so my recommendation would be to do what you feel is the best. Using cometstorm inside IV is such a minor dps loss that it essentially is negliable. During my Ansurek kill I didn't send comet storm in IV on pull usually as I was trying to just send all the other proccs that I had avaiable to me at the time and so comet storm dropped in the prio list. 5. This was me being greedy with my IV dropping in 5s I wanted to make sure my next GS got the benefit of the spell dmg increase our IV gives us and so I knew if I send flurry it would give me the last icicles that I needed. Ideally I should've casted FB before, I might even have had time to get the GS out before IV dropped anyways. 6. Ideally both should be on cd but it is enough with this build that your IV is on CD. Most of the time it should be fairly easy to get both on cd before you press it unless you get really lucky splinterstorm resets in your opener. No problem at all! I hope these answers were of some use and feel free to ask any other questions you might have. Always happy to help and I appreciate the kind words! ^^

I also want to point out that these guides are not by any means made for the "min maxxing 99 parsers" out there. They are mostly made for people who are unsure, confused or maybe just now exploring frost mage and is there as a stepping stone in order to get good habits and use a build that will improve your dps and let you do good damage in raid. If you want to check out how to min max everything through simming and such I'd recommend going into the mage discord and talking with the people there who write the raidbots APL and such as they have much more in-depth knowledge about that part of the spec.
