This is how ik you are a troll. And yes you can barrage while moving but currently you want to spellqueue that right after a blast. Our AoE is def not stupid strong after the initial arcane surge (1.5min cd which is capped at 5 targets, which is intended for Single Target). That is by far the highest damage ability we have for aoe followed by aether attuned missiles which is average then orb if there are a lot of enemies. If anything they should have buffed arcane explosion and orbs.

I wouldnt call myself a specialist but I do mythic raid / pvp from time to time and do well enough but I guess I dont “understand the spec”
Sunfury needed a nerf
Ive done over 30 dungeons and have been top dps every time. Doing more damage than the other two dps combined usually.
Every once in a while a ret paladin, fury warrior, or ele sham will give me a run for my money up until the first boss. Sunfury single target is so strong i end up blowing them out of the water by the end of the run.

He is full of it. Average arcane aoe outside arcane surge windows is closer to 500-600k. It’s absolute garbage.
Arcane is getting destroyed because of raid tuning as usual, while nothing is done about their M+ performance.
Obviously. Wasn’t trying to type out the entire rotation bud. Was just trying to explain a little on how ez the gameplay is. But go off queen.
Or… and I know this might hurt your ego. You just don’t know how to play?
I’ve been messing around on my retardin for years but I leveled a warrior for the first time ever because I thought that the Mountain Thane hero tree looked neat and, omfg, Fury has got to be the most goated spec in the game, lmao. Not only is it ridiculous easy to play but the gameplay loop is actually enjoyable and the toolkit is amazing in terms of ST, AoE, and defensives. They’re probably in for some nerfs too.
yeah same…it literally means nothing. Every boss is basically dying right after arcane soul. People have only seen our burst damage lol. You will then be using filler rotation in mythic+ and raids for about 1 minute that will reduce our dps by sometimes more than half of what you are currently seeing then you will see a moderate resurgence in the dps when you can arcane surge again. They will end up buffing both the ST and AoE most likely when they realize they tuned us down because of heroics…

Go project elsewhere, nobody’s buying your slop.
Yeah, our dps will go down when bosses live longer than our burn phase, but thats also true for a lot of classes. We will also get to the point where we get two burn phases.
Im not worried, honestly. As someone who has played arcane for several expansions now, arcane is still in a really great spot comparatively.
It had the potential to be great for those who could play it well in single target only. The AoE is awful unless you are gonna mention heroic trash pulls when using arcane surge. Might be the worst AoE in the game in mythic+ because the few talent choices arcane has for aoe are a joke and so are orbs/explosion/aether atune/barrage multi hits/touch of magi does no aoe dmg/shift does no aoe dmg. The nerfs are simply done by someone who has no idea what they are doing.

Arcane has more nerfs coming, delusional if you think otherwise lol!
Womp womp.
dude u bragged about doing 1 mil dps in dungeons during huge aoe pulls…people are quadrupling that now. Arcane is a ST only spec that can do slightly more dps in aoe
Just ignore him, he’s a heroic raider with a couple of 10’s acting like he’s keystone hero. Let him boast to someone who cares.
Ya’ll seriously want to nerf Arcane single target? It is what it has going for it! And as others have pointed out, these are dungeons where things die in less than a minute, so all we are seeing is burst and not sustain.
Arcane soul getting nerfed is just so lame.
Arcane phoenix getting a 10% nerf is also very lame because that is the closest I’ll ever get to Alar, The Phoenix God who just doesn’t want to drop for me.
People really afraid of our 1.1 to 1.4 second Arcane Blasts which hit less than instants? Craziness. The mages are never united.
Oh no, what are these changes and where can I find out about them?
Logs are free to check buddy. I outclass you in every category. This is actually hilarious because you have some of the WORST stats I have ever seen. Literally one of the worst players in the world. You have little man syndrome.
I ranked 458 in M+ last season. Only missed keystone hero 1 season in DF… I can actually back the stuff I say… meanwhile youre ranked over 22000 in Heroic raids? No M+ at all. Sit down boo boo.
Also just started playing Arcane so this shows how easy it is… Anyone complaining about the difficulty has the IQ of a bird.

Wasn’t bragging. Was stating a fact. Quit being so insecure. Yea… that tends to happen as gear iLvls increase throughout an xpac… you new here?

Arcane’s AoE is very inconsistent. Lots of RNG involved and a lot of it depends on the trash not being blown up in 5 seconds. It’s really hard to get a proper feel for it in heroic dungeons where most of the trash falls over instantly. We’ll have a better idea of what it’s like when the season starts and M+ trash lives long enough to actually use Touch of the Magi consistently.
