Augury of the Primal Flame, Mechanic Question

I’m trying to decide on this trinket as rdps but Wowhead and Google aren’t clear.

When it procs, does the proc dmg go on an AoE around your char? Or can a dot on the mob burst from around them?

Trying to figure out if I need to play in melee for this trinket or not.
Ty.

It does say ‘nearby’

Embrace your melee priest life! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I use it as a melee but I’m not sure which it is. Is the trinket available on the caster loot table in LFR? That’s usually a big indication.

Can you test it on the dummies to see if it’s near you or near the target you’ve hit?

Well, the thing is, I don’t want to use my 2 bullions then realize I have to be in melee.

The wording sometimes on items in the game isn’t clear.

And yes on my mage it shows up in the vendor but there are other trinkets in game that work for all classes so Idk.

Mostly just need to know where the AoE originates from.

I would think your class discord is a better place to ask. But you never know you may get an answer here.

However if it’s on the loot table for all then I’d presume it works for all. I simply don’t know if it’s a trinket casters use. Sorry.

I picked a ranged class at random and the trinket is listed, albeit lower down but it’s there.

I presume it works at ranged without needing to be in melee range.

If it’s Shadow Priest however

Nearby to the target of the spell. It’s fine but most casters don’t have crit interactions like DH to truly make it potent. Better off buying something that gives stats with your bullion.

Shadow half your spell interactions can’t crit and you really just want other things. F is an exaggeration but getting it at all is incorrect.

Each discord and various guides all have recommended purchases.

It is worth having a look through to see what trinkets are more valuable to you.

it’s around your target of course. As frost mage you always get full value from every proc sinc one glacial will cover the bonus damage :smiley:
but there are better options - I got it in last season as a power move more than the actual value of dps but it simmed OK

Thank you, bless your heart <3

Cheers, I might get it.

It’s listed as S-tier for fire mage but the list (on wowhead) there’s more than 2 trinkets in top tier.
