Only been playing since BfA so these shiny little gems are all new to me.
I know it’s been alluded to in other posts - but when is actually a good time to use these? 10% gets me all of almost one AB or AM. A 2 min CD seems so long for such a small boost.
Being actually helpful in executing situation seems like it would be infrequent.
In terms of burn/conserve, I could use during AP to stay above 70% longer for Equipoise/Enlightened. Or use just at end of burn for an extra AB/AM before Evocation. Either way would sync with the AP CD. I feel like the former probably gives more boost overall, particularly if you are running Overpowered, as you get closer to 2 free blasts as opposed to 1 + Equipoise boost.
Or some other use? Would love to know people’s thoughts
I tend to save mine for when I get a trinket/VoP/Time Anomaly proc while I’m at low mana, so I get more use from the proc instead of it going to waste during Evocation.
Wat? It’s a class kit tool like Healthstones for warlocks. Why the f would we be not allowed to use Mana Gems? 10% of mana too much? Can’t we eat our conjured food neither? Is that ANOTHER thing they f-d up since Wrath or just pre-patch being open and unpaid beta testing?
…Sometimes I feel lucky I ceased caring for PvP long ago. By this “logic” I should demand that DKs cannot use Death Grip or Paladins cannot use Divine Shield. You know, these things they can use EVERYWHERE ELSE, ALWAYS, but not in Arena. Cuz I say so.
