Place two runes, in case you have to move forward or to the side. Pre Pot, Mirror Images, Arcane Blast once, then place your bomb(If it's a cleave fight, Living Bomb), Spread the bomb if you're able, stack your charges to 6, refresh your bomb, use your macro, then begin your AB + X rotation. For Troll Racial+Engineering Gloves/On Use Trinkets, you want to wait until you're at 6 stacks with 2 missile procs. Then Alter Time macro, which should consist of using a mana gem, using Arcane Power, and any On use(trinket/glove chant) you may have as well as racial, followed by alter time. Then AB+Missles as many as you can get off, (Pending Lust, Essence Trinket, and Troll Racial) followed by an Arcane barrage just before Alter time resets. At this point you're shitting on the raid in burst and continue your AB + X rotation. Enjoy, and never let your stacks fall off.
For Heroic Wind Lord you want to glyph Fire Blast, and Arcane Power (Having it glyphed lets you have it up for the entire reckless phase twice).

Have you guys tried Frost bomb in Wind lord HC?
I did in some of our kills and the dps compared to the other bombs is insane with adds being up all the time
The bad thing is it doesnt proc the Light of Cosmos trinket as arcane
Is this a big dps loss considering the FB higher dmg amount overall?
Follow what Eihwaz said.
I have 9.50% haste atm un-raid buffed, and I have a question. When I have alter time CDS up, should I re-apply tempest -> missilex2 -> Barr or Missilex2->Ab->Barrage HOWEVER! it's SUPER close to do the missilex2->blast->barr and if I get the SLIGHTEST of server lag I can lose my 6 stacks or will have to clip my missiles by 1-2 ticks.
Any advice on this?
Tempest should be reapplied before using the AT macro, that way you dont have any choice to make and it can't f*** up your AT rotation
Depends what haste procs you may or may not have. Just your gear, no lust.
Refresh Bomb > Alter Time > Missles > AB > Missles > Barrage
With Lust
Refresh Bomb > Alter Time > Missles > AB > Missles > AB Barrage
With lust and Troll racial
Refresh Bomb > Alter Time > AB > Missles > AB > Missles > AB > Barrage
p.s Magenuggets is really good for tracking Alter Time, and Arcanroo is excellent for tracking your bomb and Mana %

^+missiles is higher damage than Ab, so if you can only get 3 casts do 2x missiles and 1x ab. ofc like you said mis-ab-mis
i have missiles cast in my macro, though i have seen trolls have blast as macro cast, because during lust with berzerk i think they can get 3x Ab 2x Missile.

Even in raid with 5% haste, I feel like It comes insanely close that theres a 50/50 chance of abarring AFTER AT fades thus screwing me quite hard.
My haste is 4036 (9.50%) - Unbuffed.
With lust I normally AM->AB->AM->Barr and AT fades just before the halfway mark of my AB following my AT combo.
This is driving me nuts! >_<
edit: k, so on target dummy i've come to the conclusion it's just NOT possible to AM->AB->AM->Barr during AT.
I guess I just cannot do the AM->AB->AM->Barr combo until I get a little more haste...so I guess i'll be stuck with what i've been doing which is: Refresh Dot with trinket procs/Arcane Power->AM->AM->Barr

This makes no sense. I've got the same haste as you, and I have no trouble at all fitting in two AMs and an AB before barrage, without raid haste buff. Have you tried making a macro for your Arcane Power that has /cast Arcane Missiles as the last line? That might save you some time, since it'll start casting AM as soon as hit you your Arcane Power.
Yes I have that in my macro. its ap -> alter time -> cast missiles macro, I'm honestly ALMOST completely positive its due to server lag, I play on US-Darkspear and the realm crashes on a daily basis....because sometimes I get it off with like .5 seconds to spare, and sometimes it's just not even close.
I've also found it really annoying having to wait for the GCD before hitting my CD macro, otherwise missiles simply doesn't get casted. Because at my 6th charge, I'll hit NT to refresh it since it's just about to expire, and if I hit the macro RIGHT after, missiles doesnt get cast so the solution was to wait for the GCD from tempest, then hit the macro.
I guess it must be something to do with server lag, then. I mean, there's no way I can have more haste than you, so I don't see what other explanation there is.
Yeah Ive got it all figured out now, thanks Only annoying this is having to wait for NT gcd. cause if I hit nt->alter time macro right after missiles doesnt get casted.
