Combustion on gcd

It needs to be on the gcd…

Casting Gpy and dealing 50% hp with only instant cast while gpy is in the air is just plain stupid.

I’d suggest these:

  1. Infernal Cascade nerf, 1 conduit giving ~25% bonus dmg during combustion is too much.
  2. Nerf Fireblast damage and maybe slightly Pyroblast.
  3. Buff Fireball and Scorch by a lot.
  4. Maybe nerf Meteor slightly.

Basically nerf Combustion window and buff consistant damage and incentivize casting during Combustion.

Meteor is awful. Does the same kinda dmg as a pyro.

Greater pyro has a 4sec cast… los, kick, stun. Combustion should 100 to 0 by its self anyway if you do it right.

Also, ironically, its the dps equal of greater heal…

All fire mage needs is infernal cascade nerf, I feel. On early level 60, my combustion burst skyrocketed once I got the conduit.

Combustion does not belong to the gcd. No, I don’t care about your pvp shenanigans, if you’ve ever played fire you know that combustion is off-gcd for a good reason. The spec would feel extremely clunky and I’d almost deem it unplayable if this change was made.

PS: I’d be extremely disappointed in seeing nerfs because of PvP. Fire is the only good mage spec for PvE right now, and if the damage gets nerfed because of something stupid like that, I’d expect a lot of counter buffs to keep our damage the same (at the very least).

Also Rune of power auto casting which combustion is stupid, I’d like to see Rune nerfed too.

I think this is a PvE change so that the opener doesn’t require too many gcds to get off before you can pump, especially as Arcane. In raids/m+, the instant rune felt good.

Yeah I understand, but when its used with Combustion in arena, Infernal Cascade it can 1 shot through CDs quite easily. I personally feel like its a gimmick, hope they nerf it in arena.

Putting combustion on gcd would change anything in pvp anyway? Just make it worse for pve. There’s a lot of classes that can 100-0 rn, it’s pvp as a whole needs sorting not combustion.

Heals need nerfing and the vers boost needs to apply to def only imo.

I didnt say Combustion needs sorting, I said Rune of power needs sorting.

You shouldn’t be criticising anyone, you’re saying people aren’t “proper Mages and are prats” while you’re at a 51% win rate at 1400cr with 205 Ilvl as a Fire Mage.

Fire is extremely good at the moment if you didn’t know and will most likely get nerfed, but Combustion is not what they should nerf.

I agree. Needs like a 50% nerf in pvp.

Agree with this too, just reduce it from 30% to 20% in pvp and it’ll probably be fine.

I will critize twerps like you who seem to think rating has anything to do with the above mentioned cry babie nerf posts.

I’m more using at to say you should be calling other people “not real mages or prats” when you yourself are a complete noob at the class.

No your just a poo head, you want to nerf instant rune of power when its only avail during combustion and was a needed change to make the class in general not clunky and useless.

Go on show us fire mages or any mage for that topping raid dps meters, you cant and wont because your a muppet more interested in screwing over mages in general just cause you prefer a different spec.

All 3 specs could do with a buff to make it a proper dps class again, not moronic nerfs because someone like you is jealous or wants to screw mages in general based on pvp which is not the reason anyone got into playing wow in the first place.

Because broken in PvP, thats why I want it to be nerfed, I don’t care about PvE, just nerf it in PvP only.

Yea pretty obvious mr 9/10 normal and barely a +6 in time, clearly your a scrub. See I can pull the lets look at someone’s stat page as well card.

See pve nerfs based on pvp are a joke.

And I will laugh at you for thinking one doesn’t affect the other. There is no real balance in pvp just now and till they tone done almost all the other classes that wont let you stand and cast in a rune of power, you can take your attitude and shove it where the sun don’t shine.

Just stop. The only one with a bad attitude here is you, and you’re also wrong in just about every conceivable way.

He’s right, you’re wrong. Stop it.

If something is too strong, it should get nerfed, simple as that
