what are your thoughts on gem build? can it pull the same ST and aoe as harmony? 10% less clearcasting and not having the chance to not consume harmony seems pretty big
or a better question though im not too sure how to phrase it, is the scenario in which you have to dump harmony stacks because you're low on mana not a parsing killer? i opted for gem build, because i feel i won't be good enough managing mana while managing harmony stacks
@@Toegrinder thanks! i read the guide, and figure i'll give harmony another shot, i've been struggling with keeping up the dps. seeing some people doing 80 to 100k dps consistantly through the entire dungeon while i can only hit that much on bosses
This is my first video guide, all feedback is appreciated.

The guide was great. It was concise and covered almost all situations you can run into as an arcane mage. I've been using your sim resources for years, and I was thrilled when I saw your website and now this guide, it's like it's Winter's Veil already! Appreciate your work and you sharing it a lot! Thank you!
Just a heads up, both import strings for the serparate builds are the identical and leads to the raid talent build. Thanks for the guide, it helped a lot!
Oh boy I have been waiting for this one! Your resources keep coming in clutch informing me how to play the new builds and stuff. Appreciate it as always my man!
Just the guide i was looking. Explaining why are we doing things not only what are we doing. Also good walk through on priorities and what to do meanwhile.
Thanks so much for the video! Played frost and was annoyed I couldn't get my numbers up. Was afraid to try arcane as it seemed to complicated but you explained everything in a way that made the spec easy to understand. Hope you keep producing more content like this!
Thank you A LOT man! I started Arcane Mage for the first time in Dragonflight and was very overwhelming to understand all the procs/passives etc. Coming from MM hunter were you just press 3 buttons when tbey shine and win lol. And there are many guides in YT but this is the best one so far, very informative, visual and precise! Keep that good work man! You definitely earnt my lile and sub!
Thank you so much! You've answered basically every question that I've had after looking through some of the arcane guides out there. Everything is extremely clear and well explained. Thank you!
I've watched a lot of guides before, usually fire but sometimes others, and engaged with the mage community a lot. This is prob the best guide I've ever watched, for already knowing the abilities and core mage but wanting to properly understand min-max. Thank you.
Just wanted to drop a comment to thank you for this extremely helpful video, and an enormous thank you for all you've done for the Mage community. The game as a whole is made significantly better with folks like you in it. Cheers!
I’ve been an amazing frost mage in the days of old, I’ve been an all star fire mage in the days of recent, and now my time has come to finally learn arcane
Wow thanks, thats the 4th guide im watching on yt after i read icy veins, even tho it seems everyone is saying the same i could follow you the best, definitly subbing and looking forwards to some content
The available resources in the mage community are unmatched. When I joined altered time during BfA it got me to the highest level of WoW I’ve ever played. Thanks for the work
Amazing guide! Thanks for all your hard work on the video, and also on the website. These are invaluable tools for anybody seeking to get better at mage!
Does anyone know which addon or WA creates that nice GCD tracker? It shows cast times, GCD, overlapping spells, current time and seems to be awesome to learn the rotation. I didn't manage to get TrufiGCD or Details streamer plug in to look like that. The only show icons without the cast time indicating bars I think. And apart from that. Nice video! Thanks! :D
Are you using a tell me when profile for the visual rotation or was that just added in post for the video? Does one exist to help keep track of the opener/burn rotation?
great guide :) at the end when you mention it's ok to hardcast missles when we have enough haste , would it technically be worth spamming arcane explosion to fish for as many clearcasting procs as possible since were gonna be evocating to full anyway before the pull . even on pulls when you shouldnt cast missles on pull , its seems safer to know for sure you'll have clearcasting for touch of the magi rather then assuming you'll get them from surge.
Thanks a lot for this guide, tons of info and very detailed. I just have one question about Time-Breaching Talon, when should I use this trinket? After surge or before starting burst?
Awesome guide, thanks a lot. Comparing what I see on magehub vs wowhead some things you didnt talk about (which makes me wonder how relevant they are / useful when looking to kinda understand where both guide writers are coming from) - clipping arcane missiles and then the arcane barrage macro + weakaura they mention in the wowhead guide. Are these things just not really relevant / what are the thoughts on them. Do I always want to finish my missles cast during ToTM?
Thanks very much for taking the time to make a video on top of your site! Stupid question, is the dungeon talent tree the best for M0’s and M+? Thanks again!
something that isnt clicking for me is why touch of magi is cast after arcane surge - wouldnt you want the arcane surge to be in the window of magi as its a big damage spike?
Your UI is so clean, any chance you can pass it along? Also thanks for a great guide. Edit: The raid and dungeon import shows exact same talents for me?
Hey toegrinder great video, just a quick question, in the video you say mastery is 5th stat in priority but your mage hub says it’s 1st (after intellect obv) Which one would you say was more accurate now you’ve had chance to see logs etc Cheers man
appreciate this guide a lot. Thanks for putting a lot of work into this. Any chance we get to see this in action? For me, I'd love to see it streamed in m+ and see how we compare with other classes in m+
do you use arcane barrage right after touch of the magi? or do you use arcane missiles, arcane blast x2, arcane missiles, arcane blast x2 and then arcane barrage? and why is that?
Yes though usually pot usage is a fight by fight basis which is why I didnt mention it. I should've mentioned trinkets. Generally start of arcane surge but it depends on the trinket
If you are playing Gem without Cascading Power - cast Gem with Nether Tempest or Arcane Surge
what are your thoughts on gem build? can it pull the same ST and aoe as harmony? 10% less clearcasting and not having the chance to not consume harmony seems pretty big
@@AngelsSaber I'll be making a video on Gem vs Harmony in the next day or two
or a better question though im not too sure how to phrase it, is the scenario in which you have to dump harmony stacks because you're low on mana not a parsing killer? i opted for gem build, because i feel i won't be good enough managing mana while managing harmony stacks
@@Toegrinder thanks! i read the guide, and figure i'll give harmony another shot, i've been struggling with keeping up the dps. seeing some people doing 80 to 100k dps consistantly through the entire dungeon while i can only hit that much on bosses
When do we use Presence of Mind?
This is a God send for us visual learners LOL. Thanks for all you do for the mage community!
that is very true
This is my first video guide, all feedback is appreciated. I know its not high production quality but I don't want to invest that time without an editor when video guides don't last super long.

My only request is that you do the same guide for frost and fire!
Just a heads up, both import strings for the serparate builds are the identical and leads to the raid talent build. Thanks for the guide, it helped a lot!
Bravo, work ethic is insane.
Having the rotation, broken into 2 phases, with numbers and duplicate cast included made learning this so easy. Phenomenal job.
Oh boy I have been waiting for this one! Your resources keep coming in clutch informing me how to play the new builds and stuff. Appreciate it as always my man!
Thank you
this is the only person you should be watching!!!

Of all the guides for arcane I have seen this was the easiest to understand and retain. Great job.
Thank you so much for this, appreciate it. I've used your website for years but always wished there was a video guide.
I have just lived and breathed Fire, this was brilliant to help shift over into Arcane! thank you Toegrinder!
The Goat
This helped me out so much more than the other guides. Images help so much! Great work!
Thank you A LOT man! I started Arcane Mage for the first time in Dragonflight and was very overwhelming to understand all the procs/passives etc. Coming from MM hunter were you just press 3 buttons when tbey shine and win lol.
And there are many guides in YT but this is the best one so far, very informative, visual and precise!
Keep that good work man! You definitely earnt my lile and sub!
This just completed your website (text) guide, and what is better than Toegrinder himself teach you :) We want more of you with video guide and such!
Thank you so much! You've answered basically every question that I've had after looking through some of the arcane guides out there. Everything is extremely clear and well explained. Thank you!
love the visualisations
Great video! I think you're the first to explain the arcane harmony stipulation on pull so clearly, so i appreciate that!
Great guide with in-depth detail of different scenarios
Hey, just wanted to say this was super helpful. Much appreciated :)
Thank you so much! This is so helpful as a new arcane mage player.
most informative guide out here there. Easy to follow and everything is well explained at a good phase
Excellent guide. Move whatever you were looking at during the video so that your eyes appear to be focusing on the viewers.
I've watched a lot of guides before, usually fire but sometimes others, and engaged with the mage community a lot. This is prob the best guide I've ever watched, for already knowing the abilities and core mage but wanting to properly understand min-max. Thank you.
I've watched this video like 20 times... thank you!!!
Hi! I was wondering what addon or weak aura you have that shows the spell you need to use that is scrolling across your screen?
Great work! Really in-depth details of every possible scenario. Really appreciate your work.
Such a great guide thank you! Been waiting for a video guide for years!
yo bro nice guide but one question you didn't mention presence of mind. Do I use it inside the burn with 2 stacks of np?
Great guide, thanks! Can always count on you for good content before a tier, really appreciate it.
Thank you
Just wanted to drop a comment to thank you for this extremely helpful video, and an enormous thank you for all you've done for the Mage community. The game as a whole is made significantly better with folks like you in it. Cheers!
Excellent guide! Highly recommend.
I’ve been an amazing frost mage in the days of old, I’ve been an all star fire mage in the days of recent, and now my time has come to finally learn arcane
As a long term fire-only mage, all I can say is thank you tons for this.
amazing guide Toe! Thank you so much for putting in the time to assist us Magicians
Wow thanks, thats the 4th guide im watching on yt after i read icy veins, even tho it seems everyone is saying the same i could follow you the best, definitly subbing and looking forwards to some content
Thank you
Extremely informative guide Toegrinder, appreciate it tons - really helped me out! :)
great job, especially for a first video guide. keep it up! :)
This is a God Tier guide ; Ty very much ; great job
Great work! Really looking forward to more UA-cam content from you =)
Thanks
Thanks so much for all your time and efforts!
Fantastic job. Informative, great explanations and thank you for the visualisation. Merry Christmas
really nice guide
Thank you
The available resources in the mage community are unmatched. When I joined altered time during BfA it got me to the highest level of WoW I’ve ever played. Thanks for the work
found out about mage-hub from Manather's video, great guide video, thank you very much.
Amazing guide! Thanks for all your hard work on the video, and also on the website. These are invaluable tools for anybody seeking to get better at mage!
I needed this, thank you!
Thank you for doing this. It helps a lot, thank you very much :)
Good Stuff man
Thanks

Hey toe, what are you using to have this gcd yellow bar tracker ?
Video was good. Would certainly be great if you did more in the future. That's my feedback
This is super useful thank you!
thanks you man, really great visual
Great video, doubled my dps.
This is a very attractive man. Also thanks for the guide. Really helping out!
Great video. Keep up the great content!
Great video!
Absolute state of that tauren
It's pretty rough
You did an amazing work here, Toe. I already asked you in live but, can we have access to your main aura? Thanks a lot for the content!
This guy is a such a chad
Great guide! Thank you so much!💪
im finally getting to where i can do the opener without really thinking about it lol
Are you using a tell me when profile for the visual rotation or was that just added in post for the video? Does one exist to help keep track of the opener/burn rotation?
great guide :) at the end when you mention it's ok to hardcast missles when we have enough haste , would it technically be worth spamming arcane explosion to fish for as many clearcasting procs as possible since were gonna be evocating to full anyway before the pull . even on pulls when you shouldnt cast missles on pull , its seems safer to know for sure you'll have clearcasting for touch of the magi rather then assuming you'll get them from surge.
Prepull technically you can AE to get one clearcasting, you cannot get multiple as AE will consume them
Sick vid !
Thanks for the helpful video, man!
great video man that helped me alot :)
When do i use my on Use Trinket? in the ST opener? and racial?
great guide, just a question when do you want to use your trinket/racial during your cds ?
After Arcane surge
Thanks a lot for this guide, tons of info and very detailed. I just have one question about Time-Breaching Talon, when should I use this trinket? After surge or before starting burst?
wow that was very helpful thanks
Toegrinder- thanks for the content- really appreciate it. Mage-hub is an AWESOME resource. Thanks for making my wow-life easier =)
Any macro recommendations for using our use trinkets?
Awesome guide, thanks a lot. Comparing what I see on magehub vs wowhead some things you didnt talk about (which makes me wonder how relevant they are / useful when looking to kinda understand where both guide writers are coming from) - clipping arcane missiles and then the arcane barrage macro + weakaura they mention in the wowhead guide.

Hi mate! Tnx for a great video! A question! Can you update WA for Fire/frost aswell? :)
Ty for the video! How would u set up a short burn? Maximum AOE or single damage in 10 sec?
Does anyone know how to go about getting the floating combat text seen here?
Thank you very much !
Thanks very much for taking the time to make a video on top of your site! Stupid question, is the dungeon talent tree the best for M0’s and M+? Thanks again!
I create them with M+ in mind, though I imagine its completely fine in M0s (I played Frost for most of them)
@@Toegrinder Yeah awesome, I am trying to learn Frost atm for keys. Are you planning on doing a video version of your Frost guide?
@@MrBaiKn Yes, but I plan on doing Fire next
Hey Toe, any tips on how to manage mana after the 1st burn with double lust?
if you're struggling with mana refresh NT at 4 charges and barrage right away
Let's fucking go
Great guide, learned a lot from this! Also, is there any chance that you would share your ui? ^^
something that isnt clicking for me is why touch of magi is cast after arcane surge - wouldnt you want the arcane surge to be in the window of magi as its a big damage spike?
What are your thoughts on Azure Arcanic Amplifier trinket for m+. The one that procs 2.5k ish crit, seems to proc rather often.
I've been using it. It's good because its very accessible but it should get outclasses by raid/m+ trinkets when the season starts
Your UI is so clean, any chance you can pass it along? Also thanks for a great guide. Edit: The raid and dungeon import shows exact same talents for me?
Hey toegrinder great video, just a quick question, in the video you say mastery is 5th stat in priority but your mage hub says it’s 1st (after intellect obv)
Which one would you say was more accurate now you’ve had chance to see logs etc
Cheers man
really good video
Great guide keep it up
"if you dont know me, im the most gigachad daddy mage in all of Azeroth."
I was like... renapar?
OOOOH RUNE OF POWER
appreciate this guide a lot. Thanks for putting a lot of work into this. Any chance we get to see this in action? For me, I'd love to see it streamed in m+ and see how we compare with other classes in m+
I'll be uploading/streaming raid/m+ when the season starts
do you use arcane barrage right after touch of the magi? or do you use arcane missiles, arcane blast x2, arcane missiles, arcane blast x2 and then arcane barrage? and why is that?
Would you use your trinkets/pots at start of ramping for your arcane surge burn?
Yes though usually pot usage is a fight by fight basis which is why I didnt mention it. I should've mentioned trinkets. Generally start of arcane surge but it depends on the trinket
good content! thank you
What about crafted gear with sparks? Is molten spell blade good? Which embellished gear should be created first?
you dont do any second Barrage in the Touch window? u just let touch expire and then u throw the 2nd barrage?
your aoe section is completely different to the one on icy veins and wowhead, which is one is correct?
Seems like mana gem build sims a lot higher on anything 3+ targets. Why is basically nobody running that build though? Is it less in reality vs sims?
Where do u use Arcane barrage on 20 stack buff? Isn't it more beneficial to use it at the end of Magi instead of an arcane blast?
