I was messing around with Rune of power and overpowered talents for arcane expecting my arcane blast to do a lot of damage. but it really doesn’t seem like those talents stack because I don’t seem to be doing that much more damage even with both of these talents and my on use trinket.
Does anyone know if you can only have one damage buff at once or if these don’t stack? I was really hoping to hit some fat arcane blasts however I legit feel like I hardly do any more damage. .
They definitely stack. You might just be seeing crit vs non crit. Or rng with other temporary buffs. I can hit ~450k blasts when my buffs line up.
Looking at your gear, you stack Crit vers and use Equipoise X3? In PvP?
I look forward to this a little. Right now I top out at 320k ish for crits but I’d assume more int and equipoise will remedy this
I don’t really pvp so I can’t comment on that in particular. For stats, just follow sim for gear tbh. Crit and vers do tend to come out on top, but stat weights change as other gear changes. Equipoise x3 for pve for sure.
Raw damage on blasts isn’t really the main goal, but yeah it is satisfying. Mainly I need weapon enchant and surging vitality to proc during cooldowns. And there are other races/trinkets/gear choices you could make if you wanted more max damage that wouldn’t result in more actual dps. For example you could use balefire instead of manifesto. I would also prefer to drop some mastery for more haste/crit probably.
Oh definitely. Ultimately the goal is the end dps number for min maxing which means adjusting efficiency of the full rotation to maximize burst and Artifact traits into the maximum possible damage. But the meme goal to me sometimes is “imagine if I did this amount of an AB on an actual player”
