    Patch 5.1 destruction.

    With the change on Conflagration, does any one know how much of a dps increase we are gonna see? And how many ember bits we get per confla? cause even if it gives twice as much as incinnerate, we can only cast 2 per six incinnerate rotation. I really can't imagine it being that big a difference.

    Mages are balanced. It's just that they aren't balanced for Azeroth.

    I assume it's just a single ember bit for hits and two for crits, like Incinerate. So it probably won't make much of a difference considering you only get a Conflag every 12 seconds. So on average it'll probably give you an extra ember every 120 seconds, maybe a little less if your crit is good.

    And that, my dear friend, is why LFR is good, both in gameplay and gear. It lets you taste the carrot.

    Haven't played Destro for a while but I still think it has 2 charges, so it's 2 conflags/12secs.

    It only recharges one at a time, so while you do indeed start out with 2 charges, you'll only have one every 12 seconds on average for the rest of the fight.

    FnB Conflag on 7/8adds will be free now, that is one.

    as for DPS, it will give 1 chaosbolt more every 70-90 seconds, that's 300k extra damage, 200k every minute, under 4k dps gain from simple extra chaosbolt. (at 80k dps level)
    that means 5% buff from that, and there is the other thing:
    casting chaosbolt gets you a lot of mana regen, maybe enough to make mana regen enough for 100% dps uptime, thats another 3-5% dps.
