Hello everyone! You can find a link to the logs for this encounter here if you would like: classic.warcraftlogs.com/reports/VcfkX1jJ3T7nLHay#fight=19&type=damage-done I play far from perfectly here but feel free to let me know in the comments if you have any questions about this boss or about Fire Mage in general! =)
Thanks! I'm not sure what the Merfin Addon is, but I can list all of my weakaura here if that helps. The main Boss Mechanic Weakauras are part of the "fojji pack", which unfortunately I cannot share due to it being paywalled, but the rest are: Luxthos Fire Mage Suite: wago.io/LuxthosMageCata Fire Mage Combust Helper: wago.io/PxSwZ2JUR/55 Hot Steak / Impact Alert (You will have to follow the instructions on the wago page to install the custom graphics for this one to work): wago.io/7EJeIbAXx Cata Ignite Predictor: wago.io/BQbLNlIWo I've edited and moved them around a bit but that should be everything that you see here, I hope that helps! =)
How big is your combustion hit? I have problems with that, sometimes I do 6k, other times 8k, other times 13k. I think I should remove my professions and put Engineering and Tailoring as God intended so that my mage really performs.
It depends: around the time that this was recorded 6-10k would be a typical Combustion, maybe 11-12k at the high end. Now that I have better gear that would be a very low Combustion and I can usually get anywhere from 12-17k, although I have gotten up to 27k per tick for my biggest Combustions. Having the weakaura to track your current Ignite damage really helps to know if it's worth Combusting or not, but it really comes down to a lot of RNG if you get a bunch of good crits in a row or not. Tailoring is definitely really nice for the embroideries, and if I wanted to be extra tryhard I would track the Lightweave proc (and my trinket proc) so that I knew if I had the additional Int/Spell Power Buff active, and then pop my Engineering Synapse Springs Tinker to amp my Pyroblast / Living Bomb DoT for an even bigger Combust. Engineering is definitely nice too for the free damage from the Saronite Bombs / Goblin Sapper Charge, but I often forget to even use them lol.
@@SigsPlays Do you still remember your stats from back then? I'm getting better at crits and I feel like I'm dealing more crits against adds than bosses. And I've managed to cap the hit, my haste is 10% and my crit with the shield reaches 27% normal, counting the raid buffs 33%, and if I add the benefits of glyphs or mage passives, it should reach around 45% approximately, and even so the pyroblast doesn't come out as often as I saw you. And adding to my biggest mistake, I chose the worst race for a magician, I chose human.
@@onisupremacy8446 Oh no lol, I wish that I didn't have to be a Worgen but that 1% Crit is too nice to pass up. I don't remember my exact stat %s, but you can see the raw stat number on the logs for this fight here: classic.warcraftlogs.com/reports/VcfkX1jJ3T7nLHay#fight=19&type=summary&source=2 Unfortunately it doesn't show Mastery but I try to have as little Mastery as possible. Currently with AI and Molten Armor I'm sitting at around 12.5% Haste (a little high, but I actually like that I can get my casts off a bit quicker), and ~27.5% Crit, with about 10.8 Mastery and being Hit Capped. And then beyond that I just stack as much Int as possible. It's definitely just RNG though, I have some pulls where my full opener crits and I combust and burst to like 65K + DPS by 30 seconds into the fight, and other pulls where I will literally go 1.5 minutes without getting a single Hot Streak proc. It can be really feast or famine, which is part of what makes the spec so fun, but also quite annoying lol.
@@SigsPlays Hahaha, it's amazing how much luck you rely on with Mage, thanks a lot for the advice. Finally, could you tell me the name of that Ignition WA? I think it would be very useful to know the damage it generates. Excellent battle by the way, one of the best Mages I've seen.
@@onisupremacy8446 Sure thing! This is the whole suite that tracks all DoTs that will contribute to Combust, and it lights up / makes a sound at various thresholds to let you know to Combust: wago.io/PxSwZ2JUR/55 I also have one that is just a bar, which you can find here: wago.io/LXNkv9Tug And thanks for the compliment - and good luck out there! =)
Hey there - the addon is called WeakAuras 2, you can find a download link here if you'd like: www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/weakauras-2 And you can find the specific weakaura here: Hot Steak / Impact Alert: wago.io/7EJeIbAXx (Keep in mind that you will have to follow the instructions on the wago page to install the custom graphics for this one to work) In case you (or anyone else reading this) isn't familiar with the Weakauras addon, I'll post my faq blurb for it here too: After installing the Addon go to the Wago link for the Weakaura above and click "Copy Import String" in the red oval near the top of the page. Then in the in-game chat box type "/wa" (without the quotes) and press enter. Next, click Import near the top of the Weakauras settings window that should appear, then simply press ctrl + v to paste the weakaura string that you just copied from the Wago website, and then click the red "Import" button down at the bottom. You will also have to follow the instructions on the wago.io page to install the custom graphics. After that you should see the "fire scope" icons when you get an Impact or Hot Streak proc. You can also adjust the size and position of the graphic from the Weakauras settings menu if you'd like. I hope that helps! =)

Hi, nicely done. Are the weakauras you are using based on the Merfin Addon?
Thanks! I'm not sure what the Merfin Addon is, but I can list all of my weakaura here if that helps.
The main Boss Mechanic Weakauras are part of the "fojji pack", which unfortunately I cannot share due to it being paywalled, but the rest are:
Luxthos Fire Mage Suite: wago.io/LuxthosMageCata
Fire Mage Combust Helper: wago.io/PxSwZ2JUR/55
Hot Steak / Impact Alert (You will have to follow the instructions on the wago page to install the custom graphics for this one to work): wago.io/7EJeIbAXx
Cata Ignite Predictor: wago.io/BQbLNlIWo
I've edited and moved them around a bit but that should be everything that you see here, I hope that helps! =)

Hi buddy, what addon are u using when you have an instant pyroblast and get those fiery things that kinda look like a fire-scope? :)
Hey there - the addon is called WeakAuras 2, you can find a download link here if you'd like:
www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/weakauras-2
And you can find the specific weakaura here:
Hot Steak / Impact Alert: wago.io/7EJeIbAXx
(Keep in mind that you will have to follow the instructions on the wago page to install the custom graphics for this one to work)
In case you (or anyone else reading this) isn't familiar with the Weakauras addon, I'll post my faq blurb for it here too:
After installing the Addon go to the Wago link for the Weakaura above and click "Copy Import String" in the red oval near the top of the page.

@@SigsPlays thanks man!
@@vClemmE My pleasure!
