Boomkin, Frost Mage Comp

[Mezmarz]

Me and a buddy are looking to roll a Boomkin Frost Mage comp for the next season after messing around with a Lock Holy Pally just to get a feel for arenas. Any thoughts on this comp? Things that will give us problems and strats to be the most effective?

Thanks for any advice

cleaves will give you a lot of problems but if you time your ccs/damage cooldowns well you should pretty much kill whatever you want to whenever you want to.

Yea we figured the burst would be pretty powerful just weren't quite sure where we would run into issues.

You will have problems against cleaves, and will struggle agains every compo that have a rogue in it. Also, its so easy too lock down boomkin when he pop hes cds, too easy. It may work to around 2k, but will most likely stop there. Spicy Chicken will work better

Why Fire over Frost?

Why Fire over Frost?

Dragons Breath and more burst. Leaving a Fire Mage alone is a hugely bad idea too so people who train the boomkin will most likely lose.

good to know

Becuase its actually a pretty decent setup. It is kinda obvious that 2 DoT classes will do better then 1 DoT class and one burst class. Also, fire mage have nice burst including the DoT's

Ok while playing Lock Hpal we mainly only saw frost mages and they gave us alot of issues so we just figured Frost was the pvp spec but I see your point with the multiple dots adding pressure along with the burst. Should be fun at least.
