Fire or arcane 4.1 ?

[anon123]

Have anyone done some testing ? What is best now ? arcane or fire ?
And if arcane what is the rotation ?

[Chareoss]

obviously fire mage dps arcane for going when dps high rotation, full arcane movement large boss raiding fire wins does less dps.

Just me who had huuge problems following that? Looks like you just smashed a bunch of words in there.

For raiding i think that fire will be better on some bosses like chogall because we need the aoe and dragons breath

Total Fail.

Tested Arcane last night on a dummy in Org. Was able to pull a constant 15-17k DPS over about 4min. Sub-par geared. iLVL353.

What rotation did you use ?

Well arcane is better for boss's were u have short time to do dmg cuz arcane has massive Burn phase.. in the breaks of the boss fight u use the time to reg as much mana as possible...
Fire is the best for Aoe and okay for normal dps, but u have to watch ur mana aswell...
But im mainly Ice on my mage and I do very good dps on single target no mather if its a moving boss fight or standing still, and never have to think about my mana running out... which is a nice thing.!

Saw that video when it came out. It made my day, and I showed everyone i knew, even those who don't play WoW. +10 internets to you for showing it to me again.

English isn't your first language is it... Trust me, as a native english speaker, your first post made zero sense, and your second wasn't much better.

Yeah sorry, it's worded awfully.

Right, here's how I see it:

Changes to Arcane have only come in the form of CAST-TIME reduction. Effectively, this means that the DPS will be higher than it previously was, however it will also be less sustainable as mana issues have no beet addressed, A key feature of this build.

So what does this mean? Well, Arcane will now be much more viable on fights which involve a degree of movement, but not large amounts like Al'Akir. This is because DPS can be thrown out in large quantities when you have the opportunity to, and your mana regeneration / CD's tick down during the periods when you cannot (i.e. during movement) - thereby allowing for other nukes when the time is right.

Either way whatever specc will vary massively from fight to fight.

I'd recommend you have one talent specc as your main, and the other as your offspec. Inbetween bosses, you will need to neogitate with your RL to teleport to SW and reforge your gear so it complements your specc optimally for the next boss, only to be summoned back. There are a few addons out there which 'save' your reforge status on gear (similar to WoW gear sets in the character menu) and will make that a process which shouldnt take longer than a minute.

On topic, I will wait for more evidence from EJ before deciding which way to go in 4.1.

No. It was, infact, the most retarded sentance ever written.

EDIT: Correction:
