    What spec.. AGAIN!

    Hey Swizzle.

    I did read the forum rules but to be honest none of the 3 threads about each spec is helpful when it comes to my question.
    also the post I made didn't really go against you rules because my question wasn't about fire or frost spec, but about which of the 3 spec is most useful in raid. so to be honest there should be a thread about comparing the 3 specs. "which, there by the way is missing on MMO-champion".

    so next time spare me of the crappy sarcasm.

    Have nice day..

    For DS in current gear it goess pretty much like this:

    Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire

    Heroic spine progress arcane for bursting tendons

    Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire, Fire

    Makes sense...

    Now if i want to know more about fire then the Fire Compendium is very useful.
    but picking one of the 3 specs then the compendium doesn't really help because they mainly discusses the spec that the compendium is about.

    So just an idea make a thread / sticky about pros and cons for each spec.
    and then people can use the compendiums after when they have chosen there spec.

    Smart, defy the mod.

    Amusing.

    What Spec? Fire, Arcane or Frost.
    The sticky points you to the 3 threads that discuss each spec. A little bit of personal initiative, legwork and common sense will lead you to some conclusions about each spec, and let YOU make your own decisions about the pros and cons of each spec, because that can be completely subjective.

    The Search function on the forum will also let you find previous threads where this has been discussed/answered endlessly.

    As the sticky says, keeping the board clear of these kinds of threads lets there be more threads on the front page to discuss actually interesting things about Mages. The forum isn't your personal spec builder.

    Pinpointing the specs , but these are my opinions.
    Frost- Significantly lower damage than the other 2 specs but lot`s of utility, almost useless in DS.
    Arcane- A spec not focusing your rotation but instead toying on your mana and cooldowns. Quite dull to play but is situationally a strong spec and easy to learn.
    Fire- Mechanics focus on critting and keeping DoTs up. Little too much RNG but otherwise the spec is very enjoyable. On par with arcane on any DS boss excluding spine hc, comes a lot ahead if there are multiple targets or lots of movement.

    Well, someone just went about handling his situation the wrong way. There is no answer to your question, all three specs bring something to a raid. Our stickies do explain what each spec can do, and if they don't...guess what? They would if you asked the question there where it should go.

    Now, not only will this thread be locked...AGAIN, but you are also not supposed to talk about mod actions in public. So, that adds another offense.

    Please try to be constructive and respectful to our forums, our posters, and even our mods.
