How does arcane play in TWW?

Does it play similar to how it played in Dragonflight? I havent played in a while but I remember it being very punishing, Playing around windows, Not carpal tunnel friendly. Does it still play the same? Spellslinger seems a little more friendly?

It isn’t as concerned with stacking cooldowns. There’s no more double Time Warp, and Arcane Missiles is only usable when Clearcasting procs. Arcane Blast still hits like a truck on four charges.

Thank you for the response, Anymore insight from you veteran arcane mages? Been trying to watch as much as I can on Spellslinger Arcane. Preheats youtube videos has been a godsend. But still sounds quite complex in order to compete?

It’s actually not that complex. You got 3 cooldowns to work around (Evocation, Arcane Surge, Touch of the Magi), and your rotation for AoE is very straight forward with building and expending arcane charges for phat arcane barrages.

ST is gonna be a bit more nuanced with TWW arcane cause you gotta know when to pick your spots to spend arcane charges on arcane barrage vs keeping them for arcane blast.
