Just realized I totally forgot to mention Onyxia gear on this and that's my bad. The main thing I was going to say is that it's mainly catch up gear, as even tho some of the items at ilvl 245 may seem like an upgrade from 10m HM Ulduar gear (e.g. ilvl 239 Nebula Band and whatnot), in reality the Ony gear is a downgrade.
The Polished Dragonslayer's Signet from turning in Onyxia's head simmed at least 60 dps higher for me than the Kirin Tor ring, just a heads up for those who haven't gotten both Ulduar bis rings yet!
sry to say but very unlikely. I do log reviews on saturday on my twitch and checking those past broadcasts can help, but otherwise I ended up being too busy with new move and new assignment and didn't view it as worth to make TOGC. With ICC ptr coming up I'm focusing on P4 bis video and then an ICC guide. ICC parse guide will def happen but TOGC parsing is meh to me due to the nature of the fights, and mostly that my schedule has been bonkers
Awesome guide as always. Can't find you talking about trinkets. I'm still sitting on Eye and Dying curse because I suck at rolling. But I can't make the 245 crithaste trinket to sim good for FireTTW. Is it just back to ulduar for flare/scale?
hi Crateria thank you again for your content! Would you make a video regarding stat weights Haste VS Crit for TTW, looking at the sim it remains unclear to me, it seems Crit is more valuable than Haste however you do use PS/Haste gems. Also i'm not sure how to deal with Enlightenment Hc, i believe i should go for 23 SP x3 as the bonus is only 8 haste or should i actually go for the bonus with 2 orange and one purple? thx and keep going :)
well i'm wrong as well since it's 45.91 cc for 1% but i'll try it today :p I was lucky enough to get a token for the head and just enough emblems with a trophee to buy the shoulders
because there's roughly 10 times as many mages playing fire than there are arcane. A 99 is simply a function of how well you played relative to other players, not a theoretical maximum of the spec, thus it's easier to 99 when there's less competition.
@@Crateria While I knew this, I had not appreciated how big the difference in the amount of parses for each spec was. Just took a look at the numbers for totgc: fire has 420k parses while arcane has 26k parses. Fire is also the spec with the most parses by far. Affliction Warlock comes in on a 2nd place with 295k parses.
I have p1 bis with mage and needed some break due to reasons now im coming back .. whats the best thing to catchup/easiest to catchup? ❤ 95+avg parse mage need help ❤
Yoo. is it possible for you to give me your weak aura setup? Great stuff broski. Oh, and do you know how much more dps troll racial gives (ish)? I can't find this number anywhere

Very cool mr bald
Hey you're that guide making guy
Thanks for this! Starting my Mage today. Appreciate you.
PS. OFC mages would have an hour long P3 guide. Lol.
PURPLES OUT... 🖕 :)
Great content as always. I will probably have to revisit the video a few times throughout the phase lol.
Great video as always!
Hey man, watched this video a bunch. When are we gonna get a parsing guide? The tips are great, but the nitty gritty would be nice.
sry to say but very unlikely.

@@Crateria That makes sense. I look forward to your upcoming content:)
Thanks for all your work on this
Thank you for using my guide
Once again with a flawless video. Thanks a lot !!
Thanks Crat! Quality as always.
I love your vids man, thank you for the time you put in to bring us this lovely content.
Hell yea! Thanks dude!!
Cant wait for every item being argued bis in GDKPs. Thanks for a great guide again!
Great video man; really appreciate the work you did and the very clear discussion! Thanks!
Keep up the good work Cratbrother.
Thanks Crateria :) - Shariva
Gracias hermano
patiently waiting for the p4 gearing compendium guide
Awesome guide as always.
Can't find you talking about trinkets.
I'm still sitting on Eye and Dying curse because I suck at rolling.
But I can't make the 245 crithaste trinket to sim good for FireTTW.
Is it just back to ulduar for flare/scale?
yeah that trinket isnt great which is why I didnt mention it, its basically just eye, scale, flare, and reign to aim for
thx for your work
As always awesome video!!
I'm BS/tailoring on Mage - Dropping BS for Engineering would add how much DPS roughly?
Just in time, thanks :D

can you link exactly fire ttw you will use?are you going 3 points in student of mind this phase?
regarding the FL neck route, you only get 339 hit rating? aka nowhere close to hitcap, are you suppose to gem pure hit?
What order of item slots would you spend your regalia in? legs / head first?
this is covered in the video
I seem to have missed something big time... if crit is so good for us, why do we gem haste?
Love your content tho, big thumbs up!
both crit and haste are good for fire mages, which stat is better depends on your gear and raid environment and they're usually very close in value
@@Crateria thanks very much :))
Certified bald classic right here
I can't wait for reign to never drop like flare never drops :')
yeah it felt super rare on ptr x.x
Hi thanks for your videos, i thought T9 2P would be more than 2 % if you have 800 spirit the extra 15% would be 120 CC ? about 4-5 % ?
I think I was looking at unbuffed and going from p2 bis but I may have screwed up
well i'm wrong as well since it's 45.91 cc for 1% but i'll try it today :p I was lucky enough to get a token for the head and just enough emblems with a trophee to buy the shoulders
but i believe it can go up to 3% full stuff
will there be a p4 gearing compendium ?
yes
Hey crateria I have seen some people using 12sp/10haste gems and others using 12sp/10crit gems. Do you know which is better for TTW fire?
you can go either, you'd have to sim whats best for you because crit and haste are always so close but it'll be minor dps either way
@@Crateria thank you sir I guess I won't worry about it too much then
What spec do u plan to play on day 1?
Insane gamer ty
If fire is easier to play, why do I 99 on arcane and 90 on fire ttw? :(
because there's roughly 10 times as many mages playing fire than there are arcane. A 99 is simply a function of how well you played relative to other players, not a theoretical maximum of the spec, thus it's easier to 99 when there's less competition.

Does anyone know of any content creators that have the same level of quality as Crateria, but for other classes?
There is like 5 for warlocks, 1 for prot pala.
And havent seen any for the other classes
I am confused I thought you need 14% spell hit
13% if draenie alliance 14% horde
Btw is your avatar from Falling Down?
yes
@@Crateria highly underappreciated Michael Douglas performance
I have p1 bis with mage and needed some break due to reasons now im coming back .. whats the best thing to catchup/easiest to catchup? ❤ 95+avg parse mage need help ❤
icc gearing waiting room
you should change 2 ruby cardinals to 2 reckless gems in red sockets to increase your dps
it sounds like chinese to me i have no clue where to start lol
😊
i like FFB just for the RP of being a "Master Mage"
First wooo finally!!
First !
Yoo. is it possible for you to give me your weak aura setup? Great stuff broski. Oh, and do you know how much more dps troll racial gives (ish)? I can't find this number anywhere
because it's haste it varies quite a bit with gear, you can set your race on sims to check though.
Gas gas feta more dps
