Hey Kotton,
I'm interested in your AA spec and your spell rotation in ROK raids to parse 4k. I need to increase my dps and to date haven't found a good way to go about doing that. It seems I'm still paranoid about watching for cures and heals and don't spend enough time healing. What's your approach?
Thanks,
Laz
4k with T8 Raid gear (the T1/T2 stuff, not in VP yet), 76% Spell Crit, An Illy (time compression) and a Troub in the mage group. Thats an ideal situation. Both my INT and WIS are about at 1100 Buffed. ALso I will never hit 4k on a named... only on trash.. I have to heal more for them.
For AAs I went down the AGI line for AOE block and that heal ability. (6-4-4-8-1)
INT for Crit, Disruption, and Infusion (4-4-8-8-1)
In the Fury Tree I Went down the energy vortex line (Great ability), I wouldn't worry so much about putting points in the fire/lightning AOEs.
Also some great benefits in the Animal form line, The Fae Flames casting reduction is great for infusion procs and the INT add ons.
Basically its NUKE, NUKE, DOT, DOT, and in between Use all your beneficial group AEs to proc infusion.
-Your 2 Big nukes cause your most dmg, use them whenever they are up, the second they are up. THen Dots then Infusion procs to fill the space.
-Remember Infusion Procs on every beneficial spell per person, so only use group heals/buffs to get a proc off of every group member. I even put a lvl 14 group heal up on my bar cause it doesn't use hardly any pwr at 80, yet still procs infusion the same.
-During a raid my group only gets healed when I am by chance casting a heal to proc more damage. Hibernate, Group Heal, Group Regen. Fae Flames and Pact of the Cheetah also group proc it. Since Pact has a long recast make sure you use it when Energy Vortex is up to get the most out of it.
- Also remember INT is your spell power, however WIS is your Power Pool, don't sacrifice 2 much WIS for INT or you will run out of power QUICK.
It took me a long time to figure out how to make a fury DPS, hope this helps put you in the right direction.
