Make combust undispelable

PLEASE GOD, theres no enought players in this game, not enought RMPs, we have to play different comps, and if EVERYONE isnt in a Cc, fire cant burst, cuz every class has a purge.

PLEASE, make it undispelable, IT DOSNT help the PROS, only us, the noobs! pros playes perfects rmps, or rogue mage, that aways burst inside ccs, we noobs, need to burst sometimes aoe, and a 2 minut cd its down on the trash cuz every purger purges it!

PLEASE

Sure just make the crit chance 50% instead of 100% or dont let fire mages cast 2 spells at once.

They only need about 4 of those seconds to end someone in its current form

I’m not even sure what that’d do for most people because an uncovered bust is and will continue to be answered with defensives or reliable cc rather than cointossing purges on the mage, especially when the bulk of the damage comes in the first 1-3 globals.

The first 2 3 globals are 100% chance crit anyway!

And Everyone that has a purge and are not on cc SPANS purge!

Fire dmg its reduced by half cuz off all the crits, with no crits, we have NO dmg at all.

NO other class has a purgeable burst! NO OTHER, the only purgeable that i agree its power infuse, cuz its one you can give to other people.

No cooldown with 2 minuts cd should be purgeable!

I dont car about dispel on my alter time, ice block, etc, but when you go for a setup and your burst just get purged cuz someone trinket purge, its insane.

Did you get rng’d or not have any purge protection up

Because trinket purge isn’t generally reliable outside of Klepto

If only the you or the rogue you play with had enough cc to cross cc and cover your combust.

We are forced to play with rogues by the fact mages dont have a stun, and IF we hit outside a stun, our burst its purged.
Arcane and frost are not purgeable anymore, even the procs, and its not OP!

It dosnt help to nerf rmp, it just makes worst the life of the noob mages. those under 1800, cuz not everyone can perfect cross cc.

AND, its coming solo shufle, how the hell we going to cross cc in there? thats my point.

When arcane and frost gets DB, im prob switching, it means, a lot of people will not be forced to play fire cuz of pre cc.

Dont let fire die!

If you think even an ounce of that, that fire is in shambles or close to the grave ethat you’re screaming to not let fire die, you REALLY dont know how to play your class

Honestly I wish they’d redesign combustion to be a harsh undispellable DoT that stuns on initial impact. In turn a buff to fire’s sustain (single target and cleave) damage so that it is more threatening on a consistent basis would be fun. Maybe make living bomb baseline too and build some great interactions off it with pyro and phoenix flames in DF.

Fire feels more fitting to be a quasi-DoT/proc burst spec than what it is now.

Sit in lfg and stay days waiting for the perfect comp to it work!
If you need to play with what is up to you, if you dont have the whole day to find a group, its a pain been purged every burst.
Ele afli and heals are meta now, when theres 2 shamys, its so bad to play, 3 kicks, 2 purges…

Combust being purgeable does seem dumb to me at this point. Balance the spec in other ways imo. Also wasn’t one of their reasonings for making certain spells undispellable was they were talented into? Combust now needs to be chosen as a talent in DF.

i hate mage scum but yeah it is a little silly to just have ur biggest cd purged like that.

is it like a lore thing? i thought mages were masters of magic? kind of weird their magic is purgable but other casters arent.

Against all odds they’ve somehow been making the spec work.

It’s ebbed and flowed over the years where caster cd’s were dispellable and then weren’t then were again etc. At some point I distinctly remember the devs stating if a cd is talented into it shouldn’t be purgeable. Just recently they made multiple caster cd’s from mage/lock undispellable but left fire out and at the time nobody cared because they were beyond overpowered for so long and could easily cross cc targets to avoid a purge, but at his point with solo shuffle coming up I’d rather just have uniformity with regards to offensive cd’s and balance the spec in a different ways.

I dont think its OP, when FIRE is op, its a setup of the comp, and DOSNT matter if its purgeable or not!

It beem purgeable, again, just makes worst the life of the noobs, that need to play any comp it founds.
The noobs like me that like world pvp, and you are 1v1 against any class, like, DH, HUNTER, Shamans, priests, warlocks, other mages, and your BURST, thats the moment you do real dmg, just get puff, purged.

It makes me so mad! And theres no counter play to this.

My point its, beem purgeable dont balance the class, it just hurts the noob mages.

The god mages play perfect cross cc, and are UNSTOPABLE, no counter play.

Im no god, i just get purged, and mad!

its so crazy that every single mage player is just born with epic gaming abilities.

they should do a study on them one of these days

Hot take: Rogue/mage isn’t nearly as strong as it used to be.

I feel like that has been established.

Fire mage combust is all instant damage outside of the decision to cast a tinder fireball.

If fire mages needed to cast for burst then I’d be down to make bust longer duration and unpurgable.

Fire mage is probably the worst design spec in the entire game they need to like triple fireball and scorch damage and make the mastery dot way more important and nerf fireblast It should be the mage spec focused on solid consistent damage with comp versatility instead of running for 90 seconds then pressing db sheep and combust and repeating

I’ve never liked the fact that some class’s major offensive cooldowns are dispellable and others aren’t.
