So now that Living Flame is gutted

HAHAHA BLINK INTO AN ENHANCE SHAMAN/ Rogue/ Warbringer warrior TO LIVING FLAME LMAO

Please at least play a mage a single time before you say such ridiculously stupid things.

It also has a movement speed nerf so you can simply walk away from it

You are suggesting mages, the squishiest class in the game, just soak melee damage, LMAO

You also failed to do simple math. 20 sec up time 60 sec CD, 10 sec up time 30 sec cd, it’s the same except you are penalized by having to cast it twice and ANY travel time is doubled.

Guess you have no choice then.

Time to reroll Arcane Surge to still dumpster people from a safe distance with no counterplay.

Yeah, I’d rather quit the game than play a no-skill 3 minute spec. Arcane surge should be completely reworked. Not fun to play or play against.

I never said they wern’t, I was commenting how some people said it wasn’t a nerf. It is .

You stil dont get it. I never said the dmg per tick hasnt changed.

I said if it ticked 100 dmg per sec lets say and the old version is 20 sec.

Travel time is 3 sec. at max range that mean you only get 17 ticks out of the old one = 1700 dmg (as an example)

New Version lasts 10 sec with same travel time 3 sec that means you only get 7 ticks out of it = 700 dmg. But you can cast it twice since cd is shorter that means total dmg is 1400 vs 1700 in old hypothetically.

So you simply

wait

until they are in your face

to press it

how is this too hard to figure out

Guess what, it will likely cause them to run away from you even.

You are also dismissing the potential scenario where they immune or avoid one cast, would you rather miss 1700 or just 700?

You have never played mage man, you simply have no idea what you are talking about.

If you spend a GCD NOT pressing blink or frost nova you will die.

It has 84% movespeed now, they just walk away and it does nothing.

The fact you think the will RUN AWAY FROM YOU FROM MELEE RANGE holy cow brother, just stop

It’s actually significantly stronger if you include the stealth buff from last week.

You are smoking raw milk if you think living flame is stronger now, lmao please learn what math is

Please do yourself a favor and subtract 1 gcd worth of damage of another spell from that 1400. Since you’re casting it an extra time, you lose the opportunity cost of another spell.

Its better in that sense but overall dmg is lower and in was talking about PVE no mage wil want to go in melee range of boss and cast it.

Yes and the Mana but that wasnt my case, I was just trying to prove that some said its not a dps nerf at all.

It’s just honestly hard to care about this thread after seeing all the actual % damage nerfs every other class gets. Like try going from viable to bottom of the charts. Mages are fine.

Rest in pieces

I know you’ve displayed you don’t understand math at all but assuming you are hit capped (not hard to do atm) you have a 99% chance of this not happening. You are making an argument for 1% of the time. Just pick up a book and stop playing so many video games if you cant figure out very basic math.

They bubble, ice block, blink, sprint, etc?

Skip the insults. I’m giving you free bumps.

So your entire argument is that it can be avoided? So now that its half the duration and significantly slower what do you think will happen far more often? ITS GOING TO BE AVOIDED DURRRRRRRRRRRR

They only difference is they no longer need to trade a 5 min cd to do so

Hey goofball, you wait till they use a gap closer on you, nova and living flame. And I do play a mage bud. Not gonna boast about all my titles but your over reacting big time. You can easily press living flame in melee range after a nova . Just get better and work on your positioning

Unfortunately you’re on the WoW forums. Scientists have been studying them for years but still haven’t found signs of intelligent life.

Freedom - Last longer than LF can’t be slowed or rooted just walks away

Decoy Totem - Same as Freedom

Imp Sprint - Same as Freedom

Warbringer - wait for nova to living flame? intercept or charge and it wont reach you

Blink - Just blink at any point once your are LF’d and it wont reach you

Shadowstep - Same as blink

Druid - Travel form, can’t even touch them anymore

Dispel - Priest just dispel any root or slow and walk away instant dotting you

Trinket - EVERYONE HAS IT!!!

Simply walk away, you can use FaPs or many more methods than I listed for you

You’re titles mean nothing if you don’t have common sense
