Look the Paladin can’t do damage if he’s dead so it’s understandably the best defensive strat - just melt him. I’ll even dark arch and PI you.

Such a great feeling. Also felt nice having the dot class aspect to the normal dh gameplay.
GOOD COMS!
This is the positivity I need while playing arena.
“Are you sending it?”
“Yeah one sec.”
“Okay DA and PI. Go nuts”

Dunno why Blizz can’t just have PVE only abilities, it’s fine.
Living Bomb should just stay in PVE, that’s what choice nodes are for.
I’m not really disputing whether or not it was worth to run. More so wondering why people are just now talking about it this interaction and the damage buff not being tested. I’m sure that even before the damage buff, it would’ve been possible to cheese and explode a team for half their health instead of all of it. Why was nobody ever talking about it before?
Maybe, Kalv said he did try it a few times prior to buff. No one was talking about it because no one plays fire anymore really and no one wants to run around trying to flamestrike people with a PVE build.
Its an awfully clunky ability thats not fun to weave or use even with @cursor macros or @player (on yourself).
I can do half the health of an entire team as full mastery with combust from 55 yards if its not dispelled and they are stacking and thats a lot less effort then trying to play that clunky weird pve build and spam FS lol.
Don’t take my word at it though go hit some training dummies, dont use pyroblast just weave flamestrikes with or without an @cursor or @player macro. No matter how you do it, its not smooth or enjoyable.
FB FB flamestrike, pf fb flamestrike. Goofy as heck to constantly do.
Why bother when you can play DH and 123 zug someone much faster with far less effort or gimmick involved. Or destro for that matter.
If fire was some immortal livegod spec that killed everything by existing you would have likely seen more of it or attempts at it perhaps though.
Most ppl CBA’d to try and play glass fire and try to gimmick people tldr.

Try having one your main healing abilities on hpriest use this same cast template
Yeah I don’t think the instant cast spell is really comparable to the one with a 3-3.5s cast time.
Luckily holy doesn’t have to mash it with 2 other instants 20x a minute
Esp cus fire is so spammy. Spamming FB/PF on combust and weaving Flamestrike every other global nonstop is so clunky, ontop of everything else your doing.
casual fire mages outdpsing everyone else by miles while being tunneled, seems good to me
Aren’t those flamestrikes instant?
Ya but the default ability is a click to confirm AOE reticle. Even with a @cursor macro just feels weird to be hitting people and mouse aiming an AOE nonstop while you DPS.
Some folks might not mind the constant 5-6x in 10 seconds flamestrike cursor aiming but to me while doing rotation it feels very unnatural. Fireblast being off global i think contributes it since your doing it so fast. Mind you I’ve also been playing mage a long time so its muscle memory doing combust rotation, dropping pyroblast to flamestrike instead where you normally hit pyroblast also feels a bit jarring.
Yes yes I’m sure. I ask because you’re replying to a post describing flamestrike as a cast time
thats cuz some of us didn’t know flamestrike was part of hot streak, don’t have to call me out gosh
Hey I don’t even know if there’s video of mages actually casting it when the pets are thick enough on the ground. Maybe that’s real too, I’m just trying to connect dots
Yes its instant with hot streak, can be hardcasted, There is also a newer talent that lets it have a chance equal to your crit chance to contribute to hotstreak where before it did not.
Hyperthermia also allows you to spam it as fast as you can for 5 seconds.
IF your running Sun Kings Blessing after 8 hotstreaks your next hardcast flamestrike does 260% increased damage and gives combust for 6 seconds. This stacks with world in flames so you can center mass crit a hardcast for big dam. Someone had mentioned getting a 335k crit with it so…big dam?
For those unfamiliar World in Flames honor talent increases damage of flamestrike up to 200% with the highest damage being in center.

Sun king sounds like a bg clip generator for sure
