After looking at your gear and noticing both the 2 piece set bonus of T4 and an Alchemists Stone that no wonder mana regen is not a problem for you =)<BR/><BR/>But without those things mana regen is very sad for boomkins not blessed with such things and i would reccomend a spec change getting the full points in "Intensity" under the resto tree. Other than that I do say I enjoyed reading this blog and finally finding another boomkin that knows how to play his toon very very well and I did learn a few things. If you wish to look me up on the armory I am Panzeriv, Tauren Druid on Medivh of "The Stacked Deck."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967270980656617801.post-65539930913557530002007-07-23T11:06:00.000-04:002007-07-23T11:06:00.000-04:00Oh, i should have said my stats to incorporate sca...Oh, i should have said my stats to incorporate scaling:<BR/><BR/>Int: 470<BR/>+SD: 700<BR/><BR/>thx againHoofiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968942969340791590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967270980656617801.post-56649865850606748312007-07-23T10:39:00.000-04:002007-07-23T10:39:00.000-04:00Hey, nice blog...1 question though.

Beyond a 4% increase from talents, your armoury isnt showing any +gear - i think you may want to start rollin on some mage pieces, cos with talents, and without +hit gear, you are only lookin hitting a boss 97% of the time - i did some theory craftin, and your're losin about 15% dps over what you would have if you maxed hit rating.Merahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15598412942184440915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967270980656617801.post-75809207185655907842007-07-17T14:37:00.000-04:002007-07-17T14:37:00.000-04:00Yes, I'm the AC GM, and danke for the kind words.A...Yes, I'm the AC GM, and danke for the kind words.<BR/><BR/>As I mentioned, the global cooldown is "officially" 1.5 secs, but numerous times I have been able to spam 3-4 wraths consecutively without the .5 second delay in between. Why, I'm not sure. Sometimes it does indeed interrupt me with the "spell is not ready" thing. Most of the time it doesn't.<BR/><BR/>If you find yourself experiencing a hole in your casting because of the extra .5 seconds, a good thing to do would be to cast wrath until you crit, then cast Starfire whenever you do so.Fiordhraoihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14037886752789481418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967270980656617801.post-48266771810595471732007-07-17T13:11:00.000-04:002007-07-17T13:11:00.000-04:00Im resto atm, but since Im levelling an alt to be ...Im resto atm, but since Im levelling an alt to be balance - it looks fun, and is slightly unusual.<BR/><BR/>Am i wrong in thinking you are Gm of Aertherial Circle?

Occasiona...All I can offer is personal experience. Occasionally I'll go to hit wrath after Nature's grace and it will tell me "that spell isn't ready yet." Most of the time, it doesn't. I know that on a lucky string of crits I once pushed out 8 wraths in 10 seconds (and promptly pulled aggro). The global cooldown is supposedly 1.5 seconds. I'm not sure if there's some built in leeway or what, but it seems that it sometimes kicks in on me, but usually doesn't.<BR/><BR/>For the record, I normally hover around the 75-100ms latency area, so latency most likely isn't the cause.<BR/><BR/>All I can suggest is to try it out yourself. Go visit Dr. Boom and smack him until you're sure how it's working for you. :)Fiordhraoihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06914392035475614717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8967270980656617801.post-27797830145149802292007-07-17T04:14:00.000-04:002007-07-17T04:14:00.000-04:00Does Nature's Grace really reduce the cast time fo...Does Nature's Grace really reduce the cast time for Wrath spam? I think I have seen claims that it does not because of the global cooldown. Any convincing evidence either way?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07021186342867299627noreply@blogger.com
