[FIRE] Legion Beta Megathread

How does CM and crit % work under Combustion? Is it our character sheet % crit that gets converted into mastery or is it our "hidden" CM total crit?

[Deiae]

It is rating. Crit to mastery is just so your gear's crit rating isn't wasted.

[BiggestNoob]

That's a needed change, actually.

You know, you take that for granted but Warrior has a 100% crit ability that doesn't give them anything for their crit rating. Of course they don't stack crit like Fire, but still.

"grating you Mastery equal to your critical strike STAT". Unless there is a funny mechanism going on that doesn't match the description, I believe he is correct.

I think this change is interesting. We have 5% more Ignite dmg during Combustion, but outside it, we will have to fish a little more for HU proc. Also, it increase the potential dmg of Dragon's Breath and Flame Strike.

I also think it is needed in some ways. In beta, my mage has > 50% crit with just pre-raid gears. So if later on, if I can stack around 70% crit, I can potentially become a God.

Completely fine with this change tbh. I love both Cinderstorm and DB and welcome an increase to their oomph (particularly because the DB legendary is so awesome). Yes it will be a slight overall damage nerf for many people, but I think we can live with that.

I'm not really sure what you are saying here. Combustion just takes your crit rating and adds it to your mastery rating. You can try this out for yourself and see, it doesn't take the passive crit we get or anything. So ignite damage does not increase during combustion since ignite can't crit.

This change helped our AOE dmg though which is kinda cool. Im fine with it overall.

Yeah, just tested. Believe you are right.

On other note, will Cinderstorm be the best lvl 100 talent with this change?

[Shadow Fox]

Curious.
How much Crit Rating = 1% Crit at 110?

I can't seem to find that information... :S

[Ganimah]

All depends on boss fight, I would think. If there are more than 2 to do damage to, I would take Cinderstorm. Otherwise, Kindling is still best for single target, IMO, as getting more combustions per fight is optimal.

Fire's legendaries got a few buffs today. A lot of other class legendaries got nerfed too.

Koralon's Burning Touch: 250% > 350%
Marquee Bindings of the Sun King: 200% > 300%

No changes to the helm though.

if im not mistaken, it should be something like 350 pr 1% crit.

[Deleted]

It is 350.

thats odd coz the legendaries show the new buffed stats on beta, maybe the adventure guide hasnt been updated, the items themselves show the new stats tho atleast for me.
