That’s the problem, surviving combust… :confused:

i think the problem is your class. demonhunters are very squishy in pvp atm in general. when people see a DH most people shout to focus that guy

What exactly are your expectations when you come to the mage forums to complain about mages? Are you expecting we all will be like “Ok, he kinda has a point, lets all stop globalling people from this point forward.”

Just purge combustion, what’s the problem?

Yea I try that, but then they have 30 other buffs that gets consumed first.

What…did you let him cast a Greater Pyroblast on you or something…you do know that is a 4 second cast and it can’t proc an insta cast.

Yes, but hard to stop when you get poly/sap spammed, even a dr poly is 5 seconds i think

Should mean that combustion is broken and needs to be fixed which is nothing new. Fire is still not even close to the most broken spec but Combustion in pvp is dumb… boring playstyle boring to play boring to fight and clearly overtuned.

Outside of combust, they do pretty garbo burst damage.
Rogues can reset and do similar levels of burst just coming out of stealth. I don’t know about post-nerf rogues because I haven’t played after reset, but rogue mage is probably the strongest mage 2s comp right now.

If you’re letting yourself get hit by a gpyro, then that’s already a problem. LoS it, stun it, kick it. Avoid getting hit by a 4 second cast that takes 35% of your health. If you can cast blur and darkness, you’re not stunned. This means you have the ability to LoS, or try to LoS. DH’s aren’t really in the best spot, but there’s plenty of classes that do similar if not more burst right now.

To kill someone from 100% to 0% when they use 0 defensive CD’s I need to Gpyro, Combust (off GCD), Meteor (1GCD), Flame Blast x 2 (off GCD), Pyro (1GCD), Pheonix Flames (1GCD), Flame Blast (off GCD), Pyro (1GCD) + 1 or 2 more GCDs of casts to get a Third Pyro. This means about 4-7 GCDs before they mange to kill you on their own. 1.5 seconds per GCD means a minimum of 6 seconds (with 0 haste). You must blink really slowly. Of course lining it up perfectly gives you probably half that time, but still… You see combust, pop a defensive. It’s like seeing ret wings. Pop a defensive and turtle til you stablize.

The meta is bursty. Learn to deal with it. There’s plenty of DH’s that are above 2k and they’ve figured out ways to not lose to 1500 mage rogue teams.
