Tips: Arcane Power and how to Crack it.

07/04/2009


OK hi everyone today I'm going to talk a little about arcane and in pvp mainly. To start i want to say that iv moved away from FFB and iv been playing with Arcane for the last 2 weeks getting my hatefull gear doing BG's and arena.
Now to start il give you a link to my current spec it is 62/9/0 Talent calc - http://tinyurl.com/clobx5.
.
.
Check out the spec and have a look, there a few thing you can do to change this spec i would stay with the 62 in arcane for now as it works great, But you don't have to run fire. You could drop the 9 in fire and dump them into frost if that's what you prefer. it has its advantages both ways 9 in frost or fire, with frost your going to use your Pom(presence of mind) and frost bolt for a nice freeze effect or like me il using it for an instant fireball for the more damage.
.
.
Ok lets help you out here so you see a spec like this and ask " well that's all great but what do i do with it, what skills and rotations do i use"? ok no prob i got you covered.
.
[ i may make a video to explain this a little better at some point in the near future]
.
Ok so what do you go about doing in Pvp, BG's for example? ok so you in a BG and you see druid first off think about running druids are very hard to take, well good ones anyway same with hunters. Never put [SLOW] on a hunter he will eat you for it. use your slow on melee classes only or people trying to run away, eg: paladin, warriors, death knights and rogues. So you have slow on a guy this is what i will normally do: Slow - POM - Fireball - Arcane Barrage - Fire blast, using Arcane Barrage and fireblast when ever you can if they are on recharge use arcane missile but on if at range.
.
One more thing ALWAYS keep your distance remember you have cloth not plate that's what slow,blink and frost nova are for. ok if at any time you have a melee right up on you, freeze, slow blink trinket. one more great thing with this if you hit ice block and need to get away hit ice block again to get out and hit invisibility asap, this spec has an instant invis its great for escaping alive. Also remember to EVOCATE its 2 Min's CD now so you it as much as possible you can even SHEEP then Evocate then start your damage on them again.
.
Tip for killing healers, ok so you see a paladin, priest or what ever is healing, you wanna hit him as hard as possible once he is near to 50% hit Counter spell this will silence him for 3 seconds and 8 times out of 10 he wont get a heal off quick enough before hes dead when silence ends. This is the main prob with druids the fast heals are hard to deal with if you don't do enough damage your not going to get him down while hes silenced.
.
Few Very Important! tips for this spec: When you use this use Blink ALOT when you cast blink for 3 seconds you have 30% less chance to be hit it helps allot. Remember to keep up you mana gems when you trying to survive the only thing is mana shield so you going to need to pop them alot. Evocate is also on a 2min CD so you can use that allot and it helps for keeping you and your damage up! You're Invisibility if now instant and will get you out of allot sticky spots. your Counter Spell silences the target for 3 seconds shut down the most crucial spells also stop healers from healing at vital points, trust me a healer not being able to heal for 3 seconds if allot.
Ok to summarise that chunk of text.
.
Melee = Snow them down and keep distance with [SLOW] [FROST NOVA] [BLINK] (instant frostbolt if you spec 9 into frost or Fireball if 9 in fire)
.
Healers = Do as much damage as possible same your pom till you need to do big damage EG: use [Arcane Barrage] [Fire Blast] and [Arcane Missiles] once down to 50% ish hit [Counter Spell] And use [PoM] and instant [Fireball or Frostbolt] and do as much damage as possible.
.
Ranges Dps = Do more damage than they do and do it quicker, with this spec you will trust me, also using [Counter Spell] to stop spells like Fear and Mana Burn.
.
.
I will come back and write some more about this there so much to this spec and its all good news.
