well, he had 335 ilvl, no buffs, no consumables..

Correct, this was right around the launch of BFA. I'll make an updated guide once something really changes the playstyle, which shouldn't be long as pyroclasm and kindling are becoming rapidly more relevant.

Yea sorry about that, I was up most of the night and not feeling very well. My audio quality is usually much better than this.

Sounds like an internet connectivity issue on your end. Try a different browser, the armory definitely still exists.

Sims take talents like firestarter into account and automatically decrease the value of crit when the fact of the matter is that when you aren't benefiting from firestarter or combustion, you need crit to keep up that consistent damage. I still have points where I have to rely on enhanced pyrotechnics to make my fireball finally crit and that's really not ideal at all. However for AoE fights, mastery pulls ahead by far pretty much like it always has lately.

INT > SP > Mastery > Vers > Haste > Crit, seems weird I know.

It has its place with the consistent ignite damage + a huge burst window. Once we get more crit, our damage will skyrocket since we can swap to talents like kindling and there will be less fireballs that don't crit. I personally am happy with where it's at for now. Frost has lots of burst but no real consistent damage, arcane is pretty meh... I'm not a fan of the arcane missiles change.

@@FireLetemburnMage that's good to hear. I likely must be doing something wrong because I do like 60% of the damage I do as frost on ST and AoE is even worse maybe 1/3...

Preheet is a top-notch fire mage indeed, you'll always see him at the top of mythic fire mage parses.

Love the channel <3 Nice to see someone else keeping the Fire dream alive!

jake lowrey it’s the beginning of the patch things are unbalanced

Use Ice Floes. It takes a little getting used to but I have a video showing how I use 3 stacks of it to get 5 casts off: ua-cam.com/video/gIEapxIL95U/v-deo.html

i would say 75% since you have the artifact trait when you crit in a row you get 5% per stack up to 5 stacks and it should be 100% if im not wrong

Simcraft has proven all of these claims to be wrong time and time again. Do you think I just make these videos without doing any research? Watch my next video on the advanced cinderstorm opener and you'll see why it's OP on top of doing tons of dmg and not fucking up your burst timing.

dude is an idiot, shouldnt even of explained yourself. Not to mention, he called kindleing kindering lmfao. Btw buddy CS is on like an 8.xxsec CD compared to metors 45sec.

What research is that, show me. I need to know xD

Did you read my comment even ? I did give an explanation for why I think the setup he used was poor. And another thing is that by using cinderstorm you are just wasting potential abilities. I mean, its okey that he found a way of making the damage work by standing in that spesific position, but comon, if the ability requires a good position to be at least useful, than why just not use one of the 2 other abilities that over longer periods does more damage. Well, I sounded like an idiot on my first comment, but I was just pointing out my opinions at the matter. Sorry for beeing a dickhead if thats what you wanted to hear :P.

Iron milk altered-time.com is where I got all of my data, always have and always will, on top of simming stuff myself. I even link it in the description. I'm not trying to be a dick but there are tons of theory crafting mages who figured all of this stuff out months ago. Also, cinderstorm does not require any sort of good positioning once you start to get good with the spell, you will just know how to face your character depending on the situation. Ideally it should be used in melee range with shimmer because of Pyretic incantation allowing all of your crits to stay even if some cinders don't crit, leading up to burst that is already increased by 25% on top of doing a ton of dmg.

Always go for pyro relics. The only other ones that come close in dmg are the increased critical strike relics by pyro by far reigns supreme.

What I do is I use shimmer to blink into melee range while casting and then cast cinderstorm while facing the ranged players, then use shimmer to get away with no dps loss, you can also use your dragons breath while you're up there which can be a huge dmg boost as well, just be careful if you have the legendary that extends its range by 22 yards haha. They give us physical dmg reduction for a reason :)

Yes 100% sure, you lose around 1 sec of RoP time but the cinders themselves critting is a lot of dmg + your ignite will tick harder since you'll be hitting 25% right off the bat.

In this video I was ~812 ilvl but i'm currently around 838 and find myself ending most dungeon boss fights at about 180k dps. For mobile damage I suggest that you practice using ice floes and shimmer on training dummies. Shimmer helps the most since it lets you blink while casting, so you can blink towards the end of a fireball cast and still have the cast go off. You can pair that with ice floes which when used correctly can give you almost 10 seconds of freedom of movement, I have a video on how to maximize ice floes stacks here: ua-cam.com/video/gIEapxIL95U/v-deo.html

2 Combustions on a boss? If you're here for dungeon-tier dps, you're at the wrong channel my friend.

+Fire Mage (Letemburn) you realize this would account for raiding as well. disable your comments if you don't want people disagreeing. all I'm saying is cinderstorm isn't the best talent for single target

Oh really? www.altered-time.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2611&start=20 Firestarter + Kindling only pulls slightly&#160;ahead in sims with no movement and&#160;the majority of fire mages on the forum&#160;that have tried out all of those builds have agreed that Fstarter + Kindling was too awkward and unreliable in a raid environment on top of screwing up the lining up of RoP with your burst... All of that trouble for literally a 1k dmg difference. Plus, the sims don't even take into account the PI bug stacking crits from CiS in melee range which would easily pull all of the CiS builds ahead.

That assumes you can actually cast it every 6 -8 seconds, what happens when you have to spend some amount of time not on the boss?, as soon as your boss dps time goes down to 90% or lower ( which is every boss in NH) then combustion is better.

No, this is not assuming that at all. In fact you could only use cinderstorm ~%75 of the time it's available and this build will still pull ahead. The only time kindling pulls ahead if when you use firestarter and as it's been stated multiple times on Altered Time, Firestarter is overvalued a bit on these sims, as the first 15% of the boss health lasts for 15% of the total fight length, which is rarely the case in a real fight - the first 15% typically take shorter than 15% of the total fight time. The coding for fire mage sims does not take into consideration the current cinderstorm "bug" so until we get a lot more crit, this build will be on top. Kindling WILL pull ahead later on as we get more tier and crit, but as of not that is absolutely the best setup. www.altered-time.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2553

It throws off the entire playstyle of the RoP/FO build. CiS also does considerable damage on top of being able to get you PI stacks before you burst if you cast it in melee range with shimmer/ice floes. If you watch my next video about cinderstorm opening you'll see how this can be taken advantage of with this exact talent build. Also, be sure to check out the altered-time fire mage forums if you haven't already.

I know statistics say cinderstorm is better but they are also considering that you are gonna be hitting all 6 cinders on your boss every time. I watched your video on the cinderstorm ability and I really think its not viable because on high mobility fights you aren't gonna always be able to blink up to the boss or look to the left to cast it. Going for combustion is way better, so I am gonna have to disagree but if it works for you then great. But its just really unlikely because most people who take the talent will miss like 30% of the cinders on a target and rather pull adds during trash pulls and shit

Brandon Fortin If you know how to get 5 casts out of your 3 ice flows stacks, I can't see how you can have any trouble with ANY amount of mobility, especially with shimmer. The only times it would be possible would be if there was an AoE around the boos at the time. Again, cinderstorm itself does a great amount of damage anyways. Looking to the left of the boss and being in melee rage aren't the only ways of having more cinders hit, If you go through the altered time forums there are great threads on how to optimize how to have all 6 hit at range. You know why they have these threads? Because cinderstrom is An amazing spell and most fire mages there agree that kindling simply falls behind unless there's a specific fight where you can take advantage of firestarter a lot.

Thanks a ton love your videos btw.

Absolutely go for as much crit as possible, it will only add damage to your combustion burst. Once you find a higher ilvl ring that has crit on it, take that, even if it has slightly less crit (if you're not going to be mythic raiding you can probably ignore that, it's just so you don't fall behind on stam).

If either combustion or flame on are about to come off of cooldown, save your fire blast. If there's more than ~15 seconds left until either of those come up then use the fireblast before the end of your 2nd FBall cast to guarantee the hot streak.

thx for the advice. I'll start to practice.

i think you waste an instant pyro here! if you start fishing for a crit, after the first crit put down rune of power and cast next fireball... at like 4/5 of the cast hit combustion since it is of the global cooldown and you can use it while casting .. -> second fireball def. crits -> instant pyro -> crit -> fireblast -> pyro -> crit - > fireblast - >pyro -> crit -> reset -> fireblast -> pyro -> crit -> fireblast -> pyro -> crit ... so you got 1 more pyro out of it :)

Oli Hi If you pre-cast Wriggling Sinew ~17 seconds before pull like you're supposed to it's all about getting off those 10 spells in that 13 second window while you're able to use your 2nd on use trink (horns of valor etc,,,) It's all situational, there is no one set opener anymore but you want to be hardcasting the least amount as possible during a Wriggling Sinew opener,

7 years later, randomly commenting 😂 Do you happen to remember what you meant by saying if you're not good at hitting all of your cinders from a distance? Were they easy to miss? How did you have to aim to hit all of them if it's a targeted spell?
