I can't state enough how "You wanna think of it this way ... " and then following a one sentence statement what this mechanic is about ... "Barrage as much as you can with 4 charges." Thank you so much for this baseline. I watch all of your content, because you have a gift explaining complex things in a very simple way. Also, the fact that you can explain it while doing it is a big plus.

Many People do guides for specs nowadays. Hardly anyone manages to explain the rotation while playing it. But you defiently nailed that. This video is a blessing for anyone who wants to pick up arcane. Nicely done! Keep up the great content! 👍
So, say we have orb up as an example (One of the ways to get back up to 4 arcane charges) along with clearcasting proc. Why wouldn't we clearcast to get the 20% increase in barrage damage before sending barrage? So basically, missles first to get nether precision, then barrage? Instead of just holding clearcasting just to barrage as much as possible; shouldn't it be a priority to make sure out barrages are buffed by NP?
i had hard time finding best rotation and im stuck at 2.4 rio cause i have no team to play with and im not perfect at it. thanks alot bro now i know the perfect m+ rotation . gg on 13 mist too . respect +
I thought i was doing something wrong even though I pretty much do the exact same thing as u but cant even compete with FDKs and Assa rogues. Turns out they are just broken since i pretty much do the same dmg on the dummies as u - obviously its a bit different in m+ due to tank/timings/etdc.. but still. I'm so glad they nerfed us twice though totally makes sense
Ele shams are busted too. I was practicing my AoE rotation on these dummies yesterday and they were in execute range so I was doing inflated DPS because Arcane Barrage was doing 100% more damage. Despite that, this ele sham who had 2 ilvls on me was doing MORE AoE dps than I was. Even though all dummies were in execute range. That's like an arms warrior DPSing a dummy in execute range getting outDPSed by, well, an ele shammy as well lmao.
damm i was doing aoe wrong, i just sended barrages hoping for orbs, not caring about having one of the way to get the mastery back, so sometimes i had zero charges and went to melee to arcane explosion, tried this rotation and doing 900k with ilvl 603
maining a mm hunter and this is ridicilous compared to its rotation. there you basically just use multi shot to get your aimed shot or rapid fire to do aoe damage and that is pretty much it except explosive shot and volley on cd xD
I thought you wanted to touch and then surge, since it stacks damage and explodes. Surge is the hardest hitting ability we have, so wouldn't we want to add that to the explosion at the end of touch?
When you’re sitting on the orb cd with no NP buff, is it n worth to just keep sending ABarr as long as you get orb procs or should you fish for cc procs with ABlast and only barrage into those np buffs and use orb if you don’t get any orb procs? I think the wowhead prio list is not 100% consistent in that scenario.
Yooo, I just realized I commented you video reminding this and completely forgot I did that. Now I see you actually reworked this and deleted old video. 😮
Jo quick question. When i add a Weakaura to Track my buffs (like the 2 curved lines Purple / Blue etc.) the Blizzard basic ones always also show up - can i shut them off somehow? Xar doenst seem to have them
imagine him sitting on the couch with his wife and kid watching a movie or something and he's just thinking about the arcane mage rotation (not hating)
*Blizzard* "we know arcane is a nightmare so we're gonna clean it up and make it friendly for new people that want to try it!" *makes it 1% less complicated than Dragonflight. Still a nightmare *
If you’re new to arcane you should not even try the AoR rotation unless you can do ST with your eyes closed. Kind of joking but you get it, you can get a lot of AoE out of ST rotation with aoe talents. Also if you are going to do AoE rotation you start at 5 targets+ or 3+ in execute, less target count you’ll get more AoE going ST.
If u have two charges of nether presicion, and u have burden of power , must use blast- barrage o just blast? and then use blast- barrage on second charge only?
So you don't use arcane explosion. Easy enough. I guess only if a tank is running abs the next mob is too far away? Otherwise, I'll probably just remove the spell from my bars.
Xaryu just a tip if you dont have charges its not worth to missle into arcane surge because you would waste nether prec on a weak arcane barrage what you can do is arcane orb so you wont waste a nether precision and a free barrage
Oh my god. I was doing AoE wrong. I wasn’t using the 2 new barrage conditions. God I feel so stupid. I can’t wait to get into a key tonight and see how much more damage I can actually do. This video/explanation made SO MUCH click for me. My god. It sounds so easy listening to hin
You can if you want, but generally speaking it doesn't add that much value to your AoE burst. It's only decent for sustained burst but even then it's quite negligible. The alternative however also doesn't add that much value either (Energized Familiar or Consortium's Bauble) so it's really just personal preference. If you find yourself going oom in dungeons, Energized Familiar can help. If you want slightly better ST, go Consortium's Bauble. If you want a 2nd orb charge for bit more AoE consistency, go Charged Orb.
@@poro9084 Yes ans that's what i'm looking for. Actually i never now when i will send orb or not with my WA. i know how to refull my 4 stack but not exactly when i will be 0 stack. On his buff on top right i don't see any buff or i don't know wich one it is. if you have the spell/aura i need to track
@@graok2440 There's no way to know you'll get an orb proc. Weakauras just show when you actually DID get a proc, so you can barrage again and spend the 4 charges the free orb has given you. You have to always have a way to get back to 4 charges like Xaryu says. If you barrage and get an orb proc, that's a bonus and you have to react fast enough to barrage again and not spend whatever spell you have banked to get back to 4 charges (save that for after your last orb proc if you get multiple).
And fury got 4 nerfs in a row and more still coming )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) The amount of damage an arcane mage can deal both st and mt far surpasses fury's potential but no sizeable nerf is in sight. i really hate blizzard balancing department.
@@brice9013 no. Comparison is the rational urge of wanting balance between different aspects and categories but it is OBVIOUS that blizzard has always avoided nerfing mages bc one of all 3 specs was ALWAYS in meta which you cannot say for most other specs except for rogues. Both classes are always dominating and this is unbalanced and bullshit. Why they favour mage this much really makes me think someone they are abusing is maining mage and they come out if they touch it or something bc there isn't s logical explanation to this shit class always being s-a tier in every spec and season.
@@phlemrazzes7704 I hope you know how stupid you sound when you consider that this is constant DPS without fall off. Even fury which is considered to be one of the best cleave specs cannot keep up this DPS even pre nerf. You're degenerated.

awesome man - much appreciated - Nice rotation for something I've struggled with massively (AOE as Arcane)
you explained it perfectly in two minutes.
I need the Weakauras please
yes !
Check out manathars weak aura its real close and good

Awesome Guide! 👍
Hey @Xaryu Clips , Can you share your arcane Orb Weak aura pls? will be rly nice
This helped out alot !!! Thanks man!!
Ty for such clear explanation without all the bloat to get .5% damage in rare siuations
Xar is the GOAT
Man thats like learning to conditions in programming
Hey, how do you get the weakaura for the arcane orb proc?

Great guide, but time stamps brother
Well arcane looks fun this time around
I thought you wanted to touch and then surge, since it stacks damage and explodes. Surge is the hardest hitting ability we have, so wouldn't we want to add that to the explosion at the end of touch?
future vids would you mind linking the talent tree so we can copy it :D thanks
when you have no way of getting your charges back, you can barrage instead of blast
Build code would be nice! Thanks in advance.

is taht TMW instead of WA????
ppl will hate but you cannot be a bad wow player if u have alot of rank 1s in pvp or pve
Mages get complex talents and balance druids get eclipse and trees, nice
TMW arcane orb proc what is that? how do i add it?
how do you keep track of when arcane barrage casts arcane orbs?

What UI addon are you using?
If u have two charges of nether presicion, and u have burden of power , must use blast- barrage o just blast? and then use blast- barrage on second charge only?
Read the wowhead guide, in that situation you always barrage first
That’s only if you are casting something other than arcane blast otherwise it’s blast blast barrage
he asked to watch the single target first but doesnt link single target one
So you don't use arcane explosion. Easy enough. I guess only if a tank is running abs the next mob is too far away?
Otherwise, I'll probably just remove the spell from my bars.

Is there a link for the weak aura?
how your spells are so fast (no animation)?
for example. missiles > orb . when i did that my char need 1 sec to complete missiles then i can orb
maybe u have little haste, so ur gcd is slower?
