      In fact I'm so lazy I use a keyboard macro which spams 1 for me
      Since I'm too lazy to even target the mob, I made it an in game macro which cast frostbolt at target of target. Then I target another raid member before turning on the keyboard macro.
      I'm too lazy to move my character also so I put the said character on follow while autospam frostbolting macro

    Found an error. The mage didn't deliberately run into the whelp pits to gather all the whelps to arcane explosion and massively boost his dps.

    • @Flufferz626
      @Flufferz626 4 роки тому +37

      You mean run into whelps, blink out of them while Onyxia is still in phase 2, pray to God some warrior cleaves them for you, then your crit frostbolt lands right as she transitions to phase 3 so now you're the tank for a bit (aka till you die out wipe the raid).
      I uh...yeah. Might've done something similar

    Even better than pressing 1 button is to set up Razer Synapse (or similar program) to play a continuous macro that presses the Frostbolt key 50-100 times a second. So basically stand in position, press the key that activates that macro and just stand still. i got sore fingers from button mashing and this helped me alot.

    Accurate for both classic and retail. Most braindead ranged class in the game, though fire spec is the proper equivalent in retail. Just wait for procs, movement is trivial due to blinks while other classes have to fend off at melee range or walk to avoid attacks. Warlocks get gateways in retail, but much higher cooldown plus setup or a sprint that burns through health lol.

    I like the meme but honestly, what class isn't boring AF to play in Vanilla? "Rotations" are generally like 1-3 abilities at most, and there isn't a single class that has to make any kind of decisionmaking or resource management beyond dump rage when you have rage/dump combo points when you have 5 of them/use big cooldown and then continue single button spam with bigger numbers. At least Mages are fun to play outside of raids.
