It seems that if you have the Rondurmancy talent node selected sometimes it refuses to go above 3 Spellfire Spheres even if you cast your 6 ABs/ABarr in combat and never goes beyond 3 while out of combat. I’ve found that if you unlearn it and then learn it again it fixes the issue but it’s temporary and it breaks again after the phoenix consumes the Spellfire Spheres. Has anyone else experienced this?
Edit: One month later this is finally getting fixed but it took Blizzard devs watching in real time during the Race to World First how annoying it was.

Same here…I got 5 spheres a few times but then it just stopped going past 3. I ended up using the other talent since Rondurmancy is totally bugged.
If not mistaken the other one is also bugged and it’s not doing the casts.

I’m glad I found this post because I thought I was doing something wrong whenever my spheres were stuck at 3 instead of 5!
I was genuinely surprised no one else mentioned it given how many people seem to be playing Sunfury. All I see in town and in dungeons are Spellfire Orbs everywhere, lol.
I’ve been stuck at 3 spheres for 2 days. Reporting as a bug now.
It worked until like 78 and then it’s totally bugged for me as well.
I think they did something weird with the coding where it can only go up to 3 passively, just like warlock soul shards, and up to 5 only while in combat but forgot to mention that in the tooltip for Rondurmancy. They’re always recycling old code (just like they recycle old model rigs and other assets) and probably used the soul shards code as a starting point, modifying it for the spellfire orbs but ended up breaking it in the process so it gets stuck at 3 even when in combat. That seems to be the most likely explanation anyway.
Bumping this because it’s bothering me so much. Sometimes I get stuck at 4 (?) which is so weird looking but like give me my 5! Ignite the Future ain’t happening. I also can’t play Frostfire because Living Bomb sucks so can you make one thing work?
This is also a really stupid mechanic - like why should Fire and Arcane be excited when someone has to pee between pulls
