It really does. Surprisingly, the damage of arcane is pretty decent in PvP… And I think Blizzard knows arcane numbers are kinda junk in PVE since they buffed blast, missiles and barrage for PvP only.
All the spells need to hit significantly harder, and I think we could do this if we severely cull damage procs, so our base damage is higher and we have only a couple or handful modifiers.
Look at our talent tree, peppered and littered with damage amplifiers, procs upon procs that rely on other procs, etc,… It’s nasty.
Arcane feels like a mess. Definitely needs a redo.
