| worldofwarcraft.tgn.tv — Fire Mage DPS rundown (episode 18 of 22) in World of Warcraft Cataclysm! We look at the spec and rotation for a Fire Mage, andanalyze the testing results via Recount. All testing is done against a raid boss dummy with no buffs besides basic class abilities. Gear is level 333 premade junk. Fire is a very, very simple rotation. Spam your primary nuke while reacting to the rare Hot Streak proc and manage about three cooldowns. I've tested both Frostfire Bolt and Fireball, each with their respective glyph, and found that Frostfire Bolt currently does more DPS. There is also an RNG factor to consider, so the gulf may not be as large as the data shows (due to mana pool problems with Fire, the sample size is only a bit over 1M damage, instead of 2-3M as I prefer to do). The addon used to track cooldowns and debuffs is DoTimer. Setup tutorial here: www.youtube.com |
