Atlas loot is a godsend, you always know what you can get in instances and gives you something to look at on long flights | ||

Someone talk to me about mage builds. What is a good solo PVE spec? What type of damage should I be doing? (I'm critting for about 2.5k a pop right now, and can usually get 7k of dmg done before the mob attacks me, AoE is a bit of a problem) I got 8.5k health. But I mean I was struggling with some of the mobs outside of the Northrend keep. Also wtf is up with the water elemental? it only hits for like 350 dmg... this thing is useless... why is this in my build lol? So yes, level 75+ mages. What spec will get me through northrend, how does this differ from a raid spec, and what's my typical casting order? Water elemental, icey veins, frost bolt, frost bolt, ice nova, frost bolt, fire blast, ice lance, cold snap if neccesary, repeat? |

Im currently full fire. Frost is mana efficient, but mostly used for pvp because of the water elemental and all the freeze effects (i use fire for PvP anyways). Mana isnt much of a problem these days now that mana gems are awsome, spell costs have all been significantly reduced, and evocation is going to be on a 4 minute cooldown. Fire is absolutely insane for burst damage, and i can almost burn down any mob before they get to me. Im not too familiar with any new cookie cutter builds yet... but i havent played my mage much lately. Like i said, tried out the death knight until lvl 60, lvld my war to 30 and now i have two lvl 6's sitting in Goldshire waiting to be lvld if you decide to reroll on my server. Although, i will need to play on my higher lvl toons soon because im running out of money on my alts lol.. Just try out a few different specs that interest you. And also try and keep to one tree... there are a lot of great talents in each tree now.. My current build -[link]- lulz.. fire mage pwns scarlet monastery for some old school fun. -[link]- Edited Tue Dec 30 2008, 07:28PM |

When you get frostfire bolt, you want to spec into that immediately. | ||

You also might want to tweak your UI hella. I am obsessive over mine and work on it constantly. It's always changing out of combat;  casting out of combat;  |

No no no I'm already spec'd my question is, how much damage SHOULD I be doing? What casting order SHOULD I be using? What is the most effective PvE lvl 80 mage build for solo-ing? You will not be able to answer that question unless you play that type of toon. Japa I'm looking in your direction. What are people hitting for now? I was told people are critting for over 7k now. Is that mostly item dependent or is there a talent spec that determines this max? Like my old spec was the 40/0/21 Arcane/Frost Crit spec. I had like a 50% chance to freeze my opponent and like a 94% chance to crit on frozen targets... I was a crit machine... add lightning capacitor and I would down mobs in seconds using nothing but a frost bolt & fire blast... They apparently have done away with this build and I'm having trouble adjusting my play style. |
