then roll forrit Rather2009-06-06 00:00:00men raid as SVMM. Forget your personal dps,
raiding isn't about you. It's a team effort, and EW is one of the best buffs youan have up in a raid. Top out your unbuffed AGI at 700+ and help your raids more than 1k+ ...
Fire/Arc raiding spec2009-04-07 00:00:00been tweaking this since I got to 80, as ive been levelling and heroic spamming with a 60/11/0 arcane spec, i was a fire/arc spec in Burning Crusade and always loved the DPS and more mana efficiency than arcane (which is an epic dps spec). So i was wondering if anyone had any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism for the build I've been working on. Oh, and if you just come on and say "go frostfire spec its imba" im just going to completely ignore you lolI am a fire mage myself and have been twinking different builds and I have come to realize that you really cant go down two trees without loosing something. You loose some fire spells and crit potental with this build. With your build you are missing two points in burnout which is what I would think would be essential for hot streak since y...
Fire vs. Frost DPS2009-04-07 00:00:00seconds, 20%% faster at dumping your manaFrost seems to be more mana efficient as well - at least my frost mage almost never ooms while
raiding (with routine use of evocate/mana gems/mana pots). I can cast almost non-stop during raid fights (barring the pauses to reposition as the fight requires). Our fire mage (whom I raid with mostly on my priest) seems to die or oom in almost every fight.

Frost arcane mage spec2009-04-07 00:00:00all classes the ability to switch between one spec to another for a price (1000g) last time i checked.
So you could be arcane for
raiding and frost for pvp.cant you already do that?no not yet not unt...
top of the DPS meters2009-04-07 00:00:00I'm a frost mage who has recently hit 80 and facing the daunting prospect of trying to get to the top of the DPS meters. I'm thinking of doing a build heavy in arcane with a bit of fire in there. I'd appreciate any advice I could get in terms of what is important in the two trees.See "Mage Raiding Build". You can't go wrong with Arcane and its a hell of alot more fun.they r all fun frost fire and arcane lol :pthat is true... all in the eye of the beholder... it seems lately with lich kin...
mage raiding build2009-04-07 00:00:00wat is the best
raiding build id say fire arcane and if u have enough mana and u are willing to buy pots, arcane wud be good too.I'm a great fire spec'd mage, look me up on Wowarmory.com(name is bloodrise, I'm an undead mage)And I only run out of mana when a raid boss mob is 20%%, even then I still have evocation, mana gems, and pots. Plus a trinket that increases pot's by 40%%. My dps is usually 2-3 dependant if their is some...
what kind mage can do the max AOE DMG2009-04-07 00:00:00i would recomend a different spec for something like
raidingit depends on what you are AoEing. if it's a large pull, you got to go with the fire combo of living bomb in the strongest mob, dragon's breath, flame strike (scorches earth giving bonus damage while they are on the spot you placed the strike), then blast wave, then another flame...
What stats are most important for arcane raiding?2009-04-07 00:00:00New to the arcane tree for
raiding. Used to be 53/18 Frostfire bolt spec'd and not sure exactly what stats to worry most about.
Hear a lot of mages saying that haste is one of the most important, but as far as hit, spell power, crit, spirit and int goes not sure which to worry most and least about.
Currently my spec is 57/3/11.
Picked up the 3%% hit with Arcane Focus and 3%% with preci...
