I felt after the outcry of other players (non-Mages) after the Firelands era: the spec was turned a bit "overengineered" so it seemed to have had a bit of annoying rotations for a while (especially that targeted rune of power that felt like the clunkiest thing in the entire game). However: I noticed now it is automatically placed and I suspect some guides about rotations "overengineer" the suggested talents picked because they give extreme weight to simulation results when players may actually get better numbers if they make their own optimal style so I don't know; what do you think?
