I'm sorry, but i strongly disagree with whatever was said about arcane blast. The problem is not that the 2pc t5 is too good, or that arcane blast dps is very solid in a vacuum, the problem is that shadow priests are too good. If shadow priests didn't give 20k mana per fight then the arcane spec would tank, hard.
Um, if Shadow Priests were a lot worse, then Arcane Blast would need even bigger improvements than it does now. Arcane should not need a particular set bonus to be competitive(but different) with Fire, it just should be, period.

There shouldn't be one-pve-spec, there should be a whole wide array of viable pve specs with different characteristics, it is downright absurd and wrong for deep Fire to be the only one, and that's why people are trying so hard to make Arcane viable, because it's an interesting other option.

Personally I don't see why "spam Fireball" has to be the only option for a dps maximizing pve Mage, our class is one dimensional enough as it is.

<Vontre> I removed the cooldown on evo
<sancus> and what happened?
<Vontre> DPS went down rofl
