Seriously a great guide for intro to Arcane play. So many guides focus on hitting you with what appears a convoluted stream of casts without explaining the basic relationships. (this includes the writers of the main sites such as icy veins who seem to take some knowledge for granted).
I have watched probably a dozen videos on Arcane Mage and this is far and away the most helpful. I am moving to AMage from SPriest and this is ammmazing. Thank you for the awesome breakdown. :)
absolutely priceless explantion of the basics for arcane rotation, ive watched a few of your beginner guides for class rotations and theres literally no one else that does it better. keep up the good work!
Again with the AMAZING GUIDES that are way easier to understand, unlike other videos that talk at 200 percent speed about skills that they expect me to know already, when I have absolutely no idea how to play the class 😂
Thank you! I leveled as frost but got a bit bored with it so swapped to arcane and then went to study the icy veins guide.. and quickly got overwhelmed and gave up. This is perfect for getting started!
Great guide. I was really frustrated by other guides but this one really makes it easier to understand rotation if you try learning it bit by bit. Thank you!
Dude I could not thank you enough for such an amazing guide. I literally came in with no idea how to play mage whatsoever, but left having a complete grasp on how to dominate as an Arcane Mage. Thank you very much sir!
Thank you for the fantastic guide. I´ve always wanted to check out arkan Mage, but never dared because he looked so complex. Now i´m goign to give it a try
Amazing guide, i learned so much from this. At the end you're talking about timing and to advance from this. And you're talking about looking through wowhead. I was looking for if you had an advanced guide as for me this guide was very easy to understand and easy to follow. Please do an advanced guide! Thank you! You're great at this. Cheers from Sweden!
Hey Javier Just wanted to say you've done an amazing job at explaining the different phases and how to properly get through them.I'm a casual player but I do enjoy classes that come with a bit of a learning curve. Keep up the good work! Definitely giving you a follow and a like!😃👍👍
I havnt played in about 6 months but dam just seeing a video on wow sparks this deep seeded ember that apperently is forever embeded deep down in my soul. Somethin about this game allures me so much. But i wish i came bac and classes had new ineresting spells to explore intead of just the same ones with tiny tweaks
Such a great video, I am going to boost an arcane mage just to try it out and have it as a possible main, and this really helped with clearing up any confusion i had with the complexity of the rotation, really simple, not too fast and easy to grab, thanks again and keep up the good work
This guide is extremely helpful to me and the most straightforward guide on Arcane I’ve seen yet. I just started arcane a few days ago and I’m already learning the phase rotations really fast and having a blast. I’m a resto shaman main and I gravitated toward arcane because I want to take a break to try a DPS class I haven’t played, it looked cool, and it’s a challenge. Do you plain on making an Enhancement Shaman guide? Didn’t see one on the playlist. Thank you again!
@@ErronBlack_Outlaw GL is good luck! Regarding the import code I don’t think it’s Icy veins, I done most of my research on WoWhead practicing / learning for this one
So i use a different build without orb barrage and it healivly focuses on arcane missile dmg and getting clearcasting asap it drops the aecane bombardment and extra orb and orb barrage for 2 missile dmg increase and mana gem. But this is a prio dmg build and your overall may be lower but youll be consistent and not at the mercy of orb barrage rng.
I dont know man, having lots of cooldowns and power spells make me feel like a true Mage. And trying to master a rotation is challenging but also so fun. You devote yourself much more. BUT THEN!, a bm hunter does a close damage to me with only pressing 3 keys makes me feel depressed.
if we get the free orb proc from arcane barrage is it more damage to spam tht as much as possible with 4 arcane charges instead of arcane blast in aoe?
Idk what im doin wrong … my dps is underperforming … doin rotation like its explained on mage hub for example .. i see ppl doin 1mio hits .. my highest hit comes by 200K. Max dps is 120k on st. Im 473 ilvl, 36%crit, 48% mastery. I absolutely dont get it 😩😩 And i just wanted to live the dream about big numbers 😅
Join my discord, share logs and someone will hopefully help! Otherwise, If u wanted to join my YT members / Patreon I can do a FULL review of the log & also show you how to log etc if needed!
great guide but still an overly complex spec, I kind of don't understand why it needed to change so drastically over the years. Were people just bored of arcane and wanted to just hit 20 buttons?

Thanks mate. I must say trying to make Arcane easy to understand was a tough one! 😂
I have watched probably a dozen videos on Arcane Mage and this is far and away the most helpful. I am moving to AMage from SPriest and this is ammmazing. Thank you for the awesome breakdown. :)
So glad to hear that! Arcane mage is SO fun once you learn the phases!
absolutely priceless explantion of the basics for arcane rotation, ive watched a few of your beginner guides for class rotations and theres literally no one else that does it better. keep up the good work!
I hope to improve them further for Season 4! Means a lot to see how appreciated they are, thankyou!

Lmao! Thankyou, Trying to make Arcane easy to follow & explain was a CHALLENGE😂

I think this comment was more than enough thanks, it's ones like this that make all the hard worth very, very worth it :)
@@JaviHeals Keep up the youtube grind man. I have no doubt in my mind that you have the potential to be a popular content creator.
I've really come to appreciate your guides Javier. Thank you for making all of this great WoW content!
It's my pleasure. Thankyou for taking the time to comment :)
I hadn't touched my mage since cata when Arcane was basically 3 buttons! Thanks for helping me understand the new additions!
Ayyyy nice! Hope it goes well for you buddy! 😁
Love it, thanks bro, when I want to switch off I will play fire, when I want to feel like a mage I will play arcane.
Thank you for the fantastic guide. I´ve always wanted to check out arkan Mage, but never dared because he looked so complex. Now i´m goign to give it a try
i swear i watched every vid in yt for arcane and read wowhead+ magehup+ ice vine and i am still bad at arcane until i watch ur video ty man so much
swapping main from devastation evoker to arcane for next expansion - thank you so much for this! great guide
Amazing Guide Javier, easy to follow, to the point, and you are very thorough explaining the rotations. Keep up the good vids!
Thanks mate, it’s appreciated
Amazing guide, i learned so much from this.
At the end you're talking about timing and to advance from this. And you're talking about looking through wowhead. I was looking for if you had an advanced guide as for me this guide was very easy to understand and easy to follow.
Please do an advanced guide! Thank you!
You're great at this.
Cheers from Sweden!
This was great to read, really appreciate it! I hope to do more advanced guides "soon" - Probably next season if I can!
Finally a comprehensive guide, thank you !
Hey Javier
Just wanted to say you've done an amazing job at explaining the different phases and how to properly get through them.I'm a casual player but I do enjoy classes that come with a bit of a learning curve. Keep up the good work! Definitely giving you a follow and a like!😃👍👍
Thankyou so much! I'll try my best to keep it coming! :D
I havnt played in about 6 months but dam just seeing a video on wow sparks this deep seeded ember that apperently is forever embeded deep down in my soul. Somethin about this game allures me so much. But i wish i came bac and classes had new ineresting spells to explore intead of just the same ones with tiny tweaks
This is a mood
That's the best guide I could find, thank you so much :)
Such a great video, I am going to boost an arcane mage just to try it out and have it as a possible main, and this really helped with clearing up any confusion i had with the complexity of the rotation, really simple, not too fast and easy to grab, thanks again and keep up the good work
Thanks! Honestly to hear I can make Arcane “really simple” is a personal achievement for me 😂
Out of all the Arcane mage guides I've seen you've really hit the spot with getting all the information in whilst keeping it simple @@JaviHeals
Hi, i would like to say you made a real nice tutorial. you explain things in a really nice way
Thankyou, very kind of you!
Best explanations for Arcane ever
This guide is extremely helpful to me and the most straightforward guide on Arcane I’ve seen yet.

Do you plain on making an Enhancement Shaman guide? Didn’t see one on the playlist. Thank you again!
Thanks! Yes All specs will be covered including enhancement. GL with arcane its sooooo fun!
@@JaviHealsThank you so much! What’s GL? Also, is this the icy veins easy mode that you have in the description? The import code looks similar.
@@ErronBlack_Outlaw GL is good luck! Regarding the import code I don’t think it’s Icy veins, I done most of my research on WoWhead practicing / learning for this one
Best arcana guide out there
Arcane is sweet you can throw up numbers fast but keeping them up is the trick hehe
I loved this spec back in WoD but drifted away after it got way too convoluted. I miss it and hope for changes one day.
Yeah, it's become a kitchen sink of abilities... In desperate need for a cleaning.
So i use a different build without orb barrage and it healivly focuses on arcane missile dmg and getting clearcasting asap it drops the aecane bombardment and extra orb and orb barrage for 2 missile dmg increase and mana gem. But this is a prio dmg build and your overall may be lower but youll be consistent and not at the mercy of orb barrage rng.

But BM is SOOOO boring!!!! Like learning this was difficult yeah but omg now I know it; the fun is unmatched!
Very useful. Thank you
This staff looks pretty cool, where can i find it or the template for the transmog?
It was in the store last month I think
I have cleared elden ring like 6 times but this is just silly.
elden ring is not hard lmfao
@@TheLastVicar compared to 99% of games it is
if we get the free orb proc from arcane barrage is it more damage to spam tht as much as possible with 4 arcane charges instead of arcane blast in aoe?
Solid explanation.
Wait why the delayed burn until 17 sec left on Siphon? This isn't something I've seen in other guides.
Times it perfectly with the rest of the rotation if you watch me do it you’ll see the timings all sync up when you do this
When I import that WA it shows my shield and int buffs below. Not sure why
Can u show me in discord?
Nah I figured it out. Thanks though!@@JaviHeals
Really nice guide. Do you have any further advice on movement mechanics?
I think because Arcane takes planning to play well; truly knowing the fight etc would be more beneficial than most specs
Thank you!
You're welcome!
not sure what the macro is doing i made it but it seems to just activate touch of the magi and nothing else
Press it multiple times, it’s not amazing but it can be helpful
Idk what im doin wrong … my dps is underperforming … doin rotation like its explained on mage hub for example .. i see ppl doin 1mio hits .. my highest hit comes by 200K. Max dps is 120k on st. Im 473 ilvl, 36%crit, 48% mastery. I absolutely dont get it 😩😩

Do you have a link for your weak auras? That's a lot clearer and uncluttered than the one I use.
In the description buddy
What will be the exact stats like tho?
trying to learn arcane rn but man, frost is so much easier lol
Arcane is soooooo fun once you understand it. But it's a LOT hahaha :D
whats your ui with the buffs in your nameplate?
ElvUI - if u wana copy my profile it's pinned in my discord
I am new to wow coming into 2024, first time player and Arcane mage just level 70 now and i have been doing so little damage. This is amazing
Can you please give us a link to your elvui setup? It looks great here
Thanks! Join my discord the import string is pinned in general chat
@@JaviHeals thanks, and thank you for an amazing video!
Not sure why but your macro isn’t working for me
You gotta press it each time, send a screenshot in disc if ya like, I can take a look@@maxdemse1416
great guide but still an overly complex spec, I kind of don't understand why it needed to change so drastically over the years. Were people just bored of arcane and wanted to just hit 20 buttons?
Thanks! And yeah, trying to tune the rotation down into a “beginner” one was near on impossible tbh😫
Very good 🎉 can we get holy paladin soon please? :)
Thanks! Coming asap
Give me a 30 sec Cd that unleashes a large flashy arcane bolt of lightning.
this is the most hardest class i've play. but i'ts fun
100%
Wish we just had to manage mana like the old days. Putting another resource like arcane charges doesn’t add fun.
Arcane is kinda bonkers ngl
Top!
When i read the wowhead / icy veins rotation i was like 'this is 5 pages of rotation' but this seems easier to understand
this is amazing yet somehow i still suck lol
It’s not an easy spec mate. Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’ll get there😁
10.2 dps doesnt sound like a lot
Possibly needs an aoe version too
You lost me at "mana".
LMAO it's such a wild ride playing Arcane
