[Arcane] Lei shen trinket vs volatile talisman

[Deleted]

Hi,

I'm currently wondering what would be best between those 2 trinkets for an arcane mage. Any thoughts?
My in-game name is ælunæ on Eu-Elune, if anyone would like to see on armory.
My current stats weigh are:
intel: 5.26
haste: 3.41
crit: 2.19

Thanks

Mages aren't a DoT Class. What spec you are is irrelevant.

Talisman >>>>>>>>>> Lei Shen

last time i checked, one damage over time spell did not consitute a class as being a "dot class", the only spec a mage has that has more DoT components than pure damage components was fire, and even then it only has 2 DoTs excluding the bomb spell chosen, pyroblast DoT and combustion cooldown, as far as the trickets go, from what i have read and what i understand, the lei shen trinket isn't that great for arcane, fire and frost gain alot more benefit overall compared to the free rep trinket, so stick to the rep trinket for now and keep the lei shen trinket for fire/frost if u ever play them.

That's probably why he said they aren't a dot class.

Did you even read what you quoted? Go on, do it.... DO IT. And don't edit your post, I want you to keep that foot in your mouth for the remainder of the day.

Your advice for using Lei Shen trinket for Fire/Frost is not good either, which is why I said, "What spec you are is irrelevant". Lei Shen's trinket is that bad for mages.
