So all the other broken stuff is ok because it doesn’t happen in the opener? They literally just nerfed rogue and hunter because people were raging about get knocked from stealth.
Lol its all good though no need to rehash this out. Just gotta git gud.
Im not here to justify why its ok or not just telling you why it happened
Cast combustion which can be casted while casting other spell and isnt on the GCD:
Get free instantly Rune of Power for +40% dmg while also getting +100% crit from combust
Infernal Cascade conduit: Get 12.6% fire damage increase for each fireblast up to 2stacks. So 25.2% fire damage.
Can play the crit = damage increase legendary for even more burst damage
Or triune to protect Combust, doesn’t matter you cast meteor double fireblast pyro and your target is dead from a single gcd.
So you get a total of 65.2% damage increase (without the damage legendary) and 100% crit chance on 1.75 crit modifier.
Add Dark Archangel for more fun.
Cooldowns stacking congrats you need nerfs aswell.
I know right? I honestly don’t know how some ppl can defend it.
I mean don’t gut the ability, but tune it a bit ffs. Make it 50% crit chance or make it a 6 sec duration or something. It lasts 12sec ffs. That is an eternity in the current meta.
Hahaha yeah also hpal is the worst healer in the game, please buff us !!
This mage is cooked…
I mean everyone wanted swifty macros back and cooldown stacking so here we are.
Fire is just an evolved fury warrior from legion lul. Your dampen nightmares have been solved
Whaa 5 globals to do damage feels bad!
Careful what you wish for ig
It’s not combust that needs a nerf. Combust only increase crit to 100% and increase their mastery for equal to their crit rating. But ignite isnt a big part of their damage anymore so that part is hardly noticable.
It’s the conjonction of Rune of Power that get used instantly when they press Combustion and Infernal Cascade conduit. It’s additional 65% damage that make it so OP.
It’s Rune of Power and Infernal Cascade that needs a massive nerf.
Because getting 100% crit and 65% damage every 45sec is dumb.
Man I’m not going to pretend to be an expert at balancing the game lol. I just know something needs to be tuned. Nevermind the fact that they can combust every 45secs or something with that stupid talent that lowers the cd when they cast fireballs.
Is a Mage main really coming onto the forums saying “not strong enough to nerf” when you’re literally the most oppressive DPS in the game currently?
How could this possibly go wrong.
I agree unnerf rogue.
This isn’t a good way to show you don’t need a nerf. There aren’t many classes that can easily break 1600+ when severely undergeared in 2s. Most of my undergeared alts can’t break 1400 because of being 1 shot.
The fact that you can hit 1600 as an undergeared fire mage actually speaks volumes about how good it is.
this is a pretty piss poor excuse considering the arena world championship took place near the end of BFA and it was riddled with warlocks…
Tell Blizzard not me
MM’s are paper and flop easy. Mages have the output and are the tankiest spec in the game right now.
Mages heal and absorb so much you’d think they are paladins.
Double fire mage + hpal @ 3k is a joke i can’t even believe it’s real.
i mean, the entire point of that post was telling you that blizzard leaving warlocks the way they were in bfa s4 wasn’t because it was the end of the expansion, it’s because for some reason blizzard deliberately lets some classes be ridiculous for incredibly long periods of time, but nerfs other classes almost instantaneously… never understood that
Pure speculation. The last season of expansions has historically been untouched balance wise.
I agree OP Combust is definitely needs to be nerfed.
Combustion is a bit too strong, but do you really take the skill capped videos as law lol?
Go back and watch their videos from a few months back, when they said holy pala was at best going to be B tier.
Grain of salt, my friend.
