4.3 Arcane Mage Rotation

[snazzybucket]

how do you outlast your evocate/mana gem cd i go oom after like 20-30 sec

[peter123peter1234]

you did wrong fro mstart by useing gem -.- nice guide

[TheDoodoohead2222]

i smell hacks you would be oom in 20secs spamming like that

[deadman903]

[M4N451995]

rotation? lol

[Fekkenation]

is your damage that low because you have very high spirit and low intellect?

[JKole614]

ive been gearing my arcane mage going for critical hit after int.. should i be focusing on haste instead?? let me kno

[ntantis]

@JKole614 u should be at 17% hit so reforge to hit rating.. also u dont need critical focus on haste after hit cap

[jeppepeppe22]

With that gear, that haste and that spamming ab you would have vent oom on 30 sec. Played arcane mage long enought to know that.

[asusmobo123]

@jeppepeppe22 Except I vent oom after my ewocation cd refreshed. Ze math may be hard to understant, vut trust me!

[SheedaBihacC1]

I dont see any rotation

[asusmobo123]

@SheedaBihacC1 Really?

[Nyqv1sT]

@asusmobo123 Yes you only spam AB xDDD noooooooooooooob

[PolariserPro]

fake



[Grivonix]

Chuck norris kann auch nur den roundhouse kick, beschwert euch an seiner rota!!^^ Ne aber hat was lustiges, kleinen gnom mit ololol mucke und die 1 taste am vergewaltigen xD

[DieKalteCola]

Do you hear the range? -> Spamm spamm spamm arcaneblast spamm spamm spamm -> do you hear the range? ---- Nice rotation bro! >.<

[runeguy277]

i love how the title says "rotation" and all he is doing is casting the same spell.

[blackhand95]

wow the arcane rot changed so what is it your adding the 3 button to your rot?

[noofeeling]

is it not better to use Arcane power then mirror image? after what I remember Arcane power will remove global cd of Mirror Image and 1 other spell?

[MultiSanguinius555]

wtf faceroll much ...

[TheSpaceGaudet]

What song is this?

[tony19923]

i bet you made a lot of macros for that rotation :))

[idlebabe1]

how can you even fail as a arcane mage, its so fucking boring

[bewaredrev]

1. Roll arcane mage

2. Get arcane blast

3. Get an autoclicker

4. Profit

[TheBlackwolfbg]

damn i can't imagine just spamming one button hole the time must be really boring, i prefer my feral druid xd

[SuperSpable]

I like to spam Arcane Blast repeatedly too to get high dps but it seems to eat my mana quickly. How do you sustain it for so long?

[SuperSpable]

How are you getting your mana back? Is your spirit just that high?

[asusmobo123]

@SuperSpable Yeah unless something changed, spirit is not the stat you want to be talking about as a mage, lol. The high mp5 was from the glyphed mage armor. As well, the base cost of AB is 167, iirc.

@FMandito It is the Quartz addon for the cast bar.

[SuperSpable]

@asusmobo123 Exactly what glyph are you using? I can't find a 'Glyph of Mage Shield.' Thanks for the clarification and help.

[FMandito]

What addon is that? Like the one that makes your casting bars look like that?

[3testes]

@FMandito quartz

[MrTrystan2000]

Ok

Step 1: Spam "Arcane Blast".

cool bro ty for the rotation

[EvoVulzian]

@Lordstew hes not making a dps display vid the bloody video even says rotation

[55kikao]

what is the macro for arcane blast?

[MrModernMikrowaveLP]

i stoped playing mage because its too boring

[klicker1112]

nice rotation.....arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast-arcane blast

real skill <3

[StormCloud025]

Mana is for noobs

[icedragonSg]

outlasting your evocation cooldown means your way too low in haste which the soft cap is your most important stat after int.

[asusmobo123]

@icedragonSg 34% haste.

[mvpmickey1]

Heres Opener-burn phase (last till 60%mana): AB spam till 4xStack+enchant proc > Blow Cd macro > spam AB till 60% mana is consumed >evo

Conservation phase after evo (last 2 min): AB spam till 80% >flame orb>Missile spam till 98% mana+ab to proc missile> once you reach 98% do 5x AB+Missile rotation

2nd Burn phase (last till 60% mana): you notice Miror image(3min cd) is not used on the 2nd burn so you use it with orb on the conservation phase to proc more missile and catch up with deeps

[jifyum07]

what a boring, talentless class

[vade89]

Lol what rotation?

[tennisplayer08031996]

spamming arcane blast has been possible since day 1 of cata, you just need to time your mana regen cds

[LordStew]

You guys suck. He's level 80.

us.battle.net/wow/en/character­/anvilmar/Gnometrius/simple

[Gizmotrold]

whats the macros for ur nr 1 

[waterwings69]

This guy cant be level 80 he is hitting like a fucking truck

[MrMatte1910]

Thumbs up for the epic music!

[wipatso]

bullshit,... you can't just spam arcaneblast and not go oom. thats imposible you'l go oom in secocnds.

[aaktiv]

Im not sure but is it 3 arcane blast then followed by another arcane blast then another arcane blast and so on?

[colebones]

only has 62k mana how and he is totaly 85 lol

[tommyrogu3]

new arcane mage rotation 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1....

[maumau47]

Lol at the chat

[RetailCrownza]

Where did you get that casting bar, I'd love to have it.

[tjpessego]

if he was 85 the dummy at lvl 80 would be green.

but ok.. if u say that he is 85..

-.-

[z3roo0]

how can any1 stand playing mage? really?

[Jacon04]

@z3roo0 i know, i find them so boring to play 

[theCTCamp]

why not... first off fight the raid dummy for dps checking, secondly... with hitting the 85 dummy... your numbers SUCK.

[asusmobo123]

@theCTCamp Because 16.85% hit isn't enough eh? Post up your video of six minutes at the target dummy., lol.

[theCTCamp]

@asusmobo123 has nothing to do with actually hitting it, I was referring to how much dmg you were doing to the lvl 85 dummy. Raid dummies have just like bosses, more resistance, if you want to check your real dmg, hit them.

[asusmobo123]

@theCTCamp Moot point. Both Gnome and the dummy are level 80.

[schamiw]

@asusmobo123 you win.

[howdougetoutofhere]

oh yeah, hes level 80, no flame orb, no ring of frost, not time warp, a huge amount of haste from the cata boes. yep. level 80.

[Heikyheyhey]

how you can take arkan spam and youre mana is not empty? how do you take this?

[JohnnyGX2]

you know hes not 85 because the lv of the dummy hes attacking its not green but yellow which means within a 2 lv difference

[atomicxblue]

music is annoying

[blackmaba1000]

holy shit this music is making  Crazzy!!

[Roguekillz2urall]

Rofl I like how people are straight out convinced he's not level 80. You can use power torrent at level 80. You can pull that dps at level 80. You can do all that shit at level 80. And really, let's face it. The difference between Arcane mage at level 85 and this is arcane missiles. Don't act like Mages are actually really complex and complicated rofl. I have one, I know how you can jerk off and watch porn while topping DPS in a 5 man at the same time.

[maikopl]

hes not 80, hes 85, I dont think you can rock power torrent at 80 lol

[asusmobo123]

@maikopl Heh, you would have really loved the 60 twink with the High Powered Bolt Gun.

[McMorphandouche]

@maikopl power torrent doesnt require a level, just the weapon, alot of the early cata dungeons drop gear that only requires level 78, but have an item level high enough for the enchant

[666Undeadangel]

@maikopl You can just you need a cata weapon high item lvl

[HisBaldness]

@shangtsungkakunglao comments like these are some of the most frustrating to respond to.. i cant even

[bobbydylan099]

damn bro arcane mages look hard

[Wingedbornmage]

@bobbydylan099 It's hard for you n00bs to look at. :P

[bananguden]

This is bad

[shangtsungakakunglao]

U call this Rotation ? is this the only spell mages have ?

where is ur fireball and ur mirror images in the burn phase when u activate arcane might ... do u know how 2 play a mage?

and 25k dps on a level 80 target is pretty shitty

[narutorasengantube]

@shangtsungakakunglao its not easy for mages to do high dps on dummies...I can't sustain 25k on dummies..but I have world of log parses on every fl boss and 5 heroic..

[bigfatjerkoff]

Best rotation ever. I just pve'd and won hard.

[morgenix123]

You lvl 80?!

[Edja4ka]

OOOh wow!!!!

EEEEPIC - ONE BUTTON SMASH o.0

[MrVignax]

Do you have arcane power glyphed? if so dont put mirror images and arcane power in 1 macro or else the mirror images will spawn without taking a snapshot of your arcane power

[milhouse0800]

you are 100 percent lvl 85 i play a mage too and the bufs and the damage that you make there is typicali the bigining 85 noob

[asusmobo123]

@milhouse0800 If I was an 85, I'd be oom in 30 seconds.

[Jds87909]

@milhouse0800 Hes not the dumbie hes targetting would be green to him if he was lvl 85 its yellow so its around his lvl range atleast when I click on it on my lvl 85 its green

[mackelol123]

hard rotations i cant remember them

[urgimar]

Really?

[Zaimoen91]

People are tards not realizing that being 80 makes ab spammable without oom:ing

Sure, arcmage is easy but not as easy as this

/lockplayer

[MrFurii]

Omg you got mail.... wondering what it could be! Hmmm 

[TheXxmoviesxx]

omg! arcane mage is so hard!? i dont understand why people are doing 35k dps with this spec!

[korvable]

Just a question, how did you get a 1,1 sec cast time on your arcane blast?

[TriggerFRESH]

should arcane blast be in the rotation? cuz arcane is really complex 

[TheMasko24]

if you're lvl 80, why do you have the 359 Alchemy trinket buff?

[asusmobo123]

@TheMasko24 Trinket "requires level 80."

[BlueBowzzer]

"But mana management is HARDDRDRDRD"

seriously. shut the fuck up.

[MarcusCoker1]

WTF same move all vid

[MrBerserkerHero]

wow +70 k and you are lvl 80 pewww

[rockzorzlawl]

Thanks man, really helped!

[forthewin345]

i see you have ALOT of haste and can still be sustainable. Do you have spirit gear?

[gunotplaya213]

yeah arcane is f'ed now...Fire FTW

[MrFuckTheWorld1337]

I don´t think i understand what do u do after Arcane Blast???

[DesertSmeagle]

The most complex and difficult rotation in the game...no doubt

[anj244]

Thats what ruining the game, blizzard should change it couse ppl like u are getting more and more retarded by spamming 1 button...but wait there are more skills, u should check them.

[themetalkid1996]

so... 22k dps at lvl 80? 

[soulrisk1010]

is this what pve had became since cata? Glad I quit..

[VoteOrDie90]

lol Rotation? spam arcane blast xD

[antimatter9999]

A lot of classes are like this, at lower levels everything is unbalanced but when you get to endgame things balance but still are not perfect.

[RareNoob]

when you look closely at 3:51 you can see him using arcane blast

[kyje1808]

Ever since i started playing wow back in BC Ive always enjoyed fire spec more than arcane.Sadly I am losing interest in raiding with my mage now b/c Blizzard seems to favorite arcane every exp since BC. I don't understand why arcane is favorited so much more then fire by the game programmers. Fire is a much funner spec but the massive dps variances it has needs to be fixed.

[EVERYTHING1001]

Just imagine he did that amount of damage in Wotlk-times.

[pwchhades]

ohhhhhhhhhhh amazing graphs hahaha

[sinborn41214]

shit like this is why I stopped playing. might as well just keybind AB to your spacebar

[Tysausrei]

I don't know, man.

I think you could have pressed the Arcane Blast button a bit harder.

[muminsum]

I liked the part when you used arcane blast...

[epikjacob]

thanks for making all 5 thousand morons who watched this think that this is what all mages do.

[TheVekNilashGoblin]

@epikjacob it is

[BlueBowzzer]

@epikjacob we all know thats all arcane mages have to do to be top dps. u may say mana management is hard, but for retards who dont know how to do that can still pull 20k dps. thats just sad

[epikjacob]

@BlueBowzzer yeah if they spam it they will be top dps, but when it costs like 400% more mana each cast you will oom pretty quick. thats why theres somewhat of a rotation to get rid of the 4 stack arcane blast buff. I don't play wow anymore fyi, and i still know more than you.

[lukeboppers]

@epikjacob just hope my raid grp doesn't watch this... lol

[OssianWikmalm]

@epikjacob No ofc mages do other stuff, they do Food, Water and portals too :D

[LP187q]

@epikjacob I know right, its as if they think we dont use the other spell too!

[Schoenmann3]

They should give Arcane Barrage a 4% Haste Buff after being cast, or something... (And it stacks 5 times ;D - 5 stacks being 20% similar to Frosts' Icy Veins)

That would make the Arcane Rotation a bit more interesting.

[jonlacoste]

Is hard to be a mage.. right?

[alexhulten]

lololol, you are OP man.. 21 k dps in lvl 80 is just fucked up

[alexhulten]

* with

[alexhulten]

i think there is something wierd, i can post a video if my 381 ilvl arcane mage that cant do this with ure buffs. AB is not spammable

[asusmobo123]

@alexhulten I'm level 80, not 85.

[GamesdeEntertainment]

@asusmobo123 youre lvl 80 of cours xD

[IrreCreepz]

@alexhulten then you´re bad :S can do that with my like 360 ilvl mage, (i mean not like him) but thats the "zomg rofl oololol dps combo" where you use most of the cds, and spam ab, when youre oom, just use the manareg spell, then use normal rota ^^

[obione738]

@alexhulten- What do you call your burn phase that lasts 3/4ths of the fight?

[alexhulten]

@obione738 im sorry mate, i dont understand youre question.

[samskarapriestess]

Hi dear Mage

Armory link so I can use ur spec.

-3

[CorghVosc]

This is disgusting...just more incentive to laugh at arcane mages that think it's a tough spec to manage

[bleachisgreat963]

@CorghVosc arcane is the easiest dps and cd mangment in game atm..lol don't kid your self. I also play an arcane mage only for the simplicity

[CorghVosc]

@bleachisgreat963 I'm not sure if you realize you're agreeing with me...lol.

[darkmerino]

On the 0:58 you gain you mana bar complete, how you do these? Trinket? potion not cause you use volcanic. I don´t understad how you gain a lot of mana and not drain it. Armory?

[asusmobo123]

@darkmerino What you saw was the end of the Volcanic Potion which inflated my mana pool. The insane mp5 is from the glyphed mage armor and my high intellect, as well the base ab cost being 167, nearly five times less than a level 85. Hence why they cannot spam ab with only double the mana.

[DarkkrowRogue]

@darkmerino Arcane mage talent,forgot the name , you get + % base mana on any skill and then when it ends you get ur mana back

[Carllejerwik]

how cant u be oom ?:O

[MegaHeyheyhey10]

ty for the macro man i like it a lot i was looking for this casue i dont want to waste time clicking on all that shit so this is a good macro for my pvp/pve mage

[CAHOakaPsycho]

The hardest dps rotation in the entire game.

[Lecreuset871]

the bm hunter of BC is now an arcane mage in cataclysm

[usmcpound]

seriously? just spam arcane blast?

[TheRet665]

@usmcpound

yes and arcane missles when it procs

[Rg1527]

Its not ready yet.......

[mthormone]

Fascinating...

[Zhqrxt]

1. Lvl 80

2. I wouldnt mind a patch with 2-3 more arcane spells - then the whiners could go " omg Mages gets all the dev`s attention" instead of "omg one button spec!"

[pietato]

Nice. Blizzard suck so hard at balancing anything.
