Message to User:

You have violated multiple forums rules in your post. Specifically, you violated rules 1, 6, and 7. Please go and re-read the forum rules: http://elitistjerks.com/f75/a54-foru...dated_7_14_10/ before posting again.

Questions of this nature should go to SQSA thread, not Arcane thread. Furthermore, if you had read SQSA thread and the OP of the Arcane thread, you would not have needed to ask your question.

Finally, it should be noted that EJ class mechanics forums are a place for in depth discussions of the class mechanics, especially end game class mechanics. They are not a Q&A forums for asking how to play a spec outside of the explicitly designated threads. Hopefully this reminder and your rereading of the forum rules will result in better and infraction free participation from you in the future. Regards,

Original Post:

so i've been following de thread, and i've been trying to understand the mechanichs of thearcane mage game play in terms of the mana conservation phase, i've also been testing a lot in the dummy to see how can i up my dps a bit more but, i have a question, at what point does mastery become less usefull and i should start reforgin to crit? i know there are no static values to thism but i've seen diferent types of well geared mages, ones who stack crit, others who stack mastery, and in my tests the diference has not been so high, with mastery my dps is dependant on the amount of mana i have, with crit i can spam more AB and when running low i can use Orb spam AM and have more mana to get to a burn phase. BTW i'm almost hit capped (16.70%)

Also i would like to know your thoughs on using theralion's mirror compared to using the moonwell chalise with the DarkMoon Card: Volcano.

Thanx
