I go 14242 and the world follows me :(

 

I have basically resigned to the fact that every 'build' caters to a specific fight. 19.4k is amazing for Garrosh but loses out on Malk, etc etc.

Actually I said last week on irc id do 14242 this week, even reforged a few days ago for it. And I ain't been on IRC or armoury stalking so I didn't even know what you were doing.

Don't pay attention to me, Kver. I change my gems/reforges 20 times a day.

 

And I believe I'm the one who mentioned in IRC about gaming PBoI :P

 

I still think in theory 19.4k can reach the highest maximum of frost dps, but I can't really prove it and I don't think even if I could that it would matter all that much.

I actually can't tolerate with such slow casts honestly. 14242 feels fluid.

 

Also this pug has been awful so far so doubt I'll share anything. I had 520k on sha at about 35% or so, but then got banished, then straight into a prison, and we eventually wiped. Shame, could've been big. Oh and frost bomb on Galakras was awesome. Although I'm resigned to the fact that I'll never get the top parse until my main raid stacks 2 or 3 packs for big aoe.

can u tell me how u do 520k on sha? lal

It's not that he does anything incredible. Just good uptimes (his skill plus RPPM), good snapshotting, and using stuff at the right times. Also the kill time is ridiculously short.

 

Those things are the recipe for ridiculous ranks. Has very little to do with the boss dying for the average guild's progression.

It was actually a PuG so pretty slow kill. I think it helps though to be a bit slower, if you get an add pack right before 30% because it will be huge so you can inflate your dps on it. Only thing with a longer kill is you got more risk of banish/prison. If you just one of them it's basically GG for a top parse.

Pretty slow kill he says... still 2 minutes longer than my guild's.

I wish our kills were 2 minutes faster than his. We would be in the 7 figure range for dps. O.o

      Last patch changes (Ray of frost/GS)
      By Aerlon
      Hello everyone,
      Last patch gave us 40% and 10% damage increase on ray of frost and glacial spike
      Does anyone know of these changes make them relevant ?
      Should frost mage play with these or one of these now ?

      Combustion and Meteor timings.
      By Drin
      Hi everyone. So I've read the guide on fire mage here on Icy-veins and got some questions related to single target rotation. First I'd like to ask about the meteor. It is mentioned that meteor should be used with Rune of Power which is fairly easy to do since Rune of Power is always ready when Metor is off cooldown. However It's also mentioned that Meteor should always be available when Combustion comes off cooldown. Now Combustion has a 2 min cooldown and meteor has 45 sec cooldown. I can use meteor twice while Combustion is on cooldown. However If I use Meteor twice , It is on cooldown when Combustion is ready. Should I wait for Combustion and not cast Meteor on the second time until Combustion is ready?
      Second what I'd like to ask is about Combustion after the opener. Its mentioned that I need a hot streak before I pop It. I fish for Pyros by casting Fireball until I get a crit and then use Fire Blast. However when I get an Hot streak I'm already mid-casting Fireball. Should I cancel the cast and cast Rune of Power or should I let that Fireball hit and immediately after start casting Rune of Power?
      It's also mentioned that I need to have a Fire Blast charge always ready before going in Combustion phase. Should I save up a charge and ignore the Heating Ups I get regardless and hope for Fireball to crit twice or basically wait for Fire Blast to get another charge?
      Thanks ?
