Original Post:
thanks solbergb , your answer comes down to the point my discussion was about.
|
If there are a lot of mobs and the instant fire spells are degrading, arcane explosion's better until it gets capped, then flame strike starts looking better, because the DOT isn't capped, nor are any crits you get (and crits are more likely with fire spells for a fire mage)
|
i'll explain what i mean by chaincasting fs. Flamstrike has a 3 sec cast. takes about 1 sec to aim nicely. Flamestrike ticks for 8 secs. So chaincasting would be reapplying FS 4 secs into the old one restarting the new cast when the old ones ends.
that leaves 3-4 secs in the FS rotation for "other" AoE
Could that way op dps-ing kickout more dps then doinging the "normal way" FS >> BW>> DB >> AE-ing
in this discussion threat is not really an issue since we use pally tanks
