The primary focus of this phase is maintaining as close to 100% mana as possible whilst ensuring that no mana is wasted. The exact rotation is heavily dependant on gear and raid buffs and is probably the phase affected the most by the coming Arcane changes. This is a mana-neutral rotation designed to keep your mana near 100% until such time as Evocation will soon be off CD. PoM can also be used at a suitable point prior to the pull, such as conjuring a mana gem and the two Arcane Potency buff charges will be present for the pull itself. PoM can also be introduced into the burn phase once AP fades as with the Arcane Potency proc being active, a 4 stack AB is preferable. This could allow for a secondary limited burn phase after Evocation using every available AM proc to regenerate mana. Flame Orb can also be used to regenerate mana as in some cases it can initiate a high number of AM procs. If periods exist were a specific high RDPS is needed, or the boss enters a phase were they take vastly increased damage, then the burn phase can be aligned to that. This phase ends with an Evocation.ĭependant on encounter mechanics, the burn phase need not necessarily be initiated at the start of the encounter as was somewhat traditional with Arcane. A typical scenario would be to AB spam until your mana level is such that a Mana Gem will take you to 100% mana, then pop all CDs and continue to spam AB until you reach 35% mana. ![]() The basic premise behind Arcane DPS is divided into two main phases, the Burn Phase and the Conservation Phase.Īs the name suggests, this is the primary DPS phase of the Arcane spec and is initiated when Evocation will be off CD when the burn phase is completed and ideally, when at full mana with a 4 stack AB present. Mastery - Also a good stat for arcane mage as it increases dmg done depending on your mana unspent. Haste - Arcane Mages without haste is like a warrior without weapon.Ĭrit – Not that valuable as arcane mage but still required. Hit Cap - As I said its harder to achieve in Cataclysm but try doing so without sacrificing much of the other stats. ![]() This stat should always be your priority. Also arcane mages have higher burst dmg than fire mages. Anyway Arcane mages are less mobile than fire mages but have slightly bigger single target dps but its not always the case. There are a number of optional talents dependant on your specific raid or role requirements and these are covered in the table above.Īrcane was the best DPS spec in 4.0.6 but the current Dragon Soul recounts clearly show that Fire Mages are dominating the DPS charts. Arcane – Talent Calculator - World of WarcraftĪ spec which focuses on mobility and reduced raid damage. ![]()
