Playing Arcane is a roller-coaster ride

BUFF! wait no NERF! No, buff! major rotation change after major rotation change.

I play a couple of instruments. Something that makes that fun is that I can develop my skills over time, over the years.

I don’t think the people in charge how unsatisfying it is to constantly have the rotation being changed. It’s changed in a major way what, 4 times since the TWW launched?

Every time you change it around like this you are basically assigning me a ton of homework and time in front of the target dummy. I’m really getting tired of it.

We are used to it. I’ve been arcane since pretty much The Burning Crusade.

I’m more miffed about the nerf to Arcane Barrage and Arcane Blast. Those weren’t needed.

I just want to deal consistent damage. Not to mention, these applying to PvP as well, just salt on the wound.

I’m a bit newer, since Shadowlands.

I really wish they would do one thing within the constraints of this new system. I wish they would change the cap to 3 stacks of Aethervision instead of two. Unless I’m doing something wrong, it would make the rotation more satisfying from a gameplay prospective, instead of a power prospective since one would blast-blast, missiles, blast, barrage instead of alternating between blast barrage and barrage blast.

The reason this is important is barrage blast will often drop arcane charges. So instead one might have to over cap, which feels really unsatisfying.

Having it go to 3 stacks takes this issue away.
