    Idea for Firemage?

    It's not that complicated, I guess, but I'm no pro so I would like to read your opinions:

    Would it solve the problems firemages have if they have a spell similiar to Shamans Lavaburst? Something like

    Igniting Blow
    2 Sec Cast, 8 Seconds Cooldown
    Deals x to y Fire Damage. If "Living Bomb" is on the target, Igniting Blow will be a critical Hit.


    Would give the tree a bit more consisty, what do you think?

    Depends on the value - For example, a Fireblast crit hits hard and when talented has a good chance at critting. Yet, it would be considered "bad" to use that to fish for a hot streak proc.

    Yeah, there's room in the LB->FB->Proc! rotation for additional spells, but unless it brings something to the table and can be shown to be a consistent DPS increase, it'll be just another spell we don't use...
    Just another bad mage playing his class badly...
    Worst Mage EVAR!

    No, because you would only use that IF your previous Fireball/Pyroblast had been a Critical strike, even then it would need to deal more damage than Fireball/Pyroblast to be worth the GCD loss.
