Loved arcane in Legion!

I wish they would give Hunter this level of visual satisfaction.

agreed, I can't play hunter for that reason. visually doesn't feel like I'm doing anything

I love Arcane except one glaring issue, which is arcane explosion. For the love of god just make this spell not melee range! Just turn into into a 25ft frontal cone similar to Evoker Fire Breath or something! The rotation of Arcane is fun and rewarding when you get it, but having to stand in melee range makes it feel so much worse and for no reason. There are so many ways they can change that one spell or just replace it with something to not force melee range. So frustrating!

Agree with this. Want to try something completely new this exp and arcane seems like a good choice but... melee range arcane explosion...no please.

don't need to play into arcane explosion at all

Such a fun spec

Arcane has always been my favourite spec. I just wish they would make Presence of Mind how it used to be. I love running around instant sheeping people. It makes you feel like an actual powerful sorcerer.

For sure that feels awesome but in terms of counter play it’s probably good to have a cast time haha

Can you make a vid of best race/class combo for tww?

Should I swap mains supa? I’ve been making balance ever expansion but other classes hero specs looks so much better. Thinking of going arcane mage.

Go for it, arcane is super fun. And it has all the bells of mage utility.

I'd like to have some new looks tô my warrior spells...

I'm confused. His mana bar didn't seem to go down at all. Is there no burn phase now?

Hey @supatease, Forget the meta! I'm looking for pure PvP fun in TWW across arenas, solo shuffle, RBGs, and open world. What spec brings you the biggest smile based on satisfying gameplay? Thanks!

I think it may be worthwhile to take your points out of arcane debilitation and put them into enlightened and aether attunement. Echo'ing a +100% damage arcane missiles with magi's spark seems pretty strong for funnel!

Always loved the visuals of arcane, also loved arcane in leveling dungeons but in M+ where there is so much more to do than concentrate to your rotation arcane was too much for me. So i'm hyped for this. Gonna main arcane mage as my DPS char in TWW since rogue seems to be very disapointing.

Are all specs gonna be aoe specs in TWW? I haven't really been following but it looks like everything does aoe damage now. Are we all going to be cleaving in the middle of the map pve style?

It's already like that in the current Dragonflight patch so yes, its going to just be AoE wars

I know we have got a lot from arcane and v excited to play it but I hope they change those splinter animations when they form above your head because they look not great xD

Looks like fun but how does this all of the aoe work in a pvp setting where enemies are crowd controlled which might break ?

what's a macro for not canceling arcane missiles but still queueing up the next ability to use after it?

@StrobeFireStudios

you could use a /castsequence macro but it would be too tempting to spam the button. i dont think there's a way to force a channel spell to complete while spamming a macro with a channelled spell in the sequence.

You can do /stopmakro [channeling] in front of other abilities or edit cast conditions to /cast [@target, nochanneling] but this will just prevent you from canceling missiles and not automatically queue another spell. You also should cancel missiles at the last sliver of the cast bar s.th. the last missile spawns but you already are doing something else.

Can you make a tier list for races in pvp?

Mages are truely the main character of WOW.

Chrono shift is easy to get- even with your build. You have the talent point in the “5% arcane explosion/blast damage” which is entirely useless- as you demonstrated you’re almost never casting arcane blast, and the static cloud talent more than makes up for it.

arcane mages should have a cheat death over alter time, rework it to reverse time from death like cauterize type

Blizz could remove some of the knobacks/micro-CC/slows in the game by casters, since most have huge mobility, don't need to stand still while casting and big (broken) shields. Retail is just a melee hell overall and TWW seems it will only makes things worse.

feels bugged atm, i dont even play arcane and i was cooking in beta m+

Is mana control still a thing?

Mana hasn't been a thing for offensive casting for 3 or 4 expansions. Mana only affects healers.

If it's fun to play, what's wrong with enjoying it

I don't like that they made missiles impossible to cast without proc. Now we have to spam blast? This is impossible in pvp. And it has bad animation, despite the fact that the rest of the class’s animations are excellent.

With the "The War Within" update, the Arcane Mage has been nerfed and is no longer fun to play.

Can’t believe they took away Icey nov and supernova so fucking dumb, literally ruins arcane , they really want to make us a one spell school class ..

First

I don't like arcane explosion. I wish it wasn't their core gameplay.

The War Within? More like THE WAR IF AOE SPEED PLAY.....pass

I really like the mechanics, BUT the splinters looks like made of cotton candy. 😭 Can't believe blizzard missing another oportunit to give some lightning flavour to arcane. Make the splinters solid and sharp purple crystals with blue lightning around. Blue crystals and purple lightning for Frost. In the same way, Arcane Missiles/Blast/Explosion can just have some crackling energy when hit the target. But Arcane Barrage was the first missing opportunit to give a Arcane Lightning spell, call down purple/blue lightning bolts instead of spyrals bolts. Arcane mage energize the target, and gain arcane charges, until make them a conduit to finish with Arcane Barrage. Even Chrono Shift makes more sense with it, cause if a lightning strikes you, at least you will be dazed. 🥲
