at least increase ignite about 20% change kindiling from reduction 1 sec to 1.5 for better refreshing
They are humiliating us on our own money. 6% buff when the spec is 25% away from Arcane. We are in the exact same position, last place, but just a bit closer to second to last.

Yeaaah ! We get a 6% buff !
Wait ! What ?
And at the same time many other classes get 5-20 % buff ?
So, will this make our dmg be great when comparing with others ?
Rather risk the oposite and putting fire-mage even further in the bottom. Hm???
And again buff ignite? The spell that do around 2-3 % of our total dmg.
That is so wierd tbh.
Why did they even do this rework centered around Living Bomb that nobody asked for. The last (much better) iteration lasted barely half an expansion. The plan must have been to rework it into a turd. That’s the only way the can call this a success.

I really like the Fire gameplay this expansion but its damage is just pitiful, you get fairly decent burst but then the sustain damage is like half that of Arcane, and the AoE is tank-level bad.

Aaaand…they buffed it. They truly love their mages.
We’re now 10 % above tanks instead of behind them on damage, yay.
Blizzard are so afraid of ignite shenanigans and living bomb scaling they re reluctant to give us proper buffs.
At this point a fire rework is warranted, because fire is either godlike or turbo garbage with how it works.

I can´t help love fire-mage. It has such fun playstyle and cole effects, so many possibilities to experimenting with that specc. But then we have this dmg-done in the end that pulls every fun away …
One problem might with tuning and scaling it correct might be the Ignite it self ?
I mean, when you check your dmg-done you often find Pyroblast being top, followed by Ignite very close behind but allmost every other dmg-abilities being far far behind.
The only reason you have Pyroblast in top is the huge number of procs, not for doing that much dmg it self. This means that scaling up the total fire-dmg some few % will mostly affect the total-dmg of Pyroblast and Ignites, two abilities that accelirate away from all other abilities even more.
So maybe Ignite-effect should be tuned down a little bit instead to make a “window” that opens up for some big, serious up-tuning on all other dmg-abilities instead.
With Living Bombs and Wake of Ashes doing such small part of total dmg, together with the proc-mechanisms that leads to very little use of Fireball, every tuning where they buff fire-dmg a certain % mostly being a question about buffing Pyroblast and Ignite in the end.
It would be easy to suggest a big tuning on every other abilities instead of an overall tuning, but I guess blizz is affraid that this might result with Ignite soon might pass even Pyroblast in total dmg.
I can´t see any other solution then a small remake, simply to get that “window” for better and more effective tunings to save this class / specc.
Agreed. Fire needs ALOT of buffs. You can literally spam phoenix flames & pyroblast with combustion + timewarp up and fully buffed, you still won’t barely move enemies healthbars.
Problem is that Blizzard devs have no idea what they’re doing. Totally clueless people. They all should be fired. End of it.

No fire buffs In sight, not even in 11.0.5. they could just remove the spec from the game if they hate it so much 
Buff fire ? …why?
Because not everyone is playing vs a computer. We want fire to be viable in pvp, where it’s underperforming as hell.
I don’t know what made that list but in the real world playing fire mage is the most apm and the least damage. Pyroblast needs about 30-40% buff, and I’m not exaggerating.

Show me logs where is fire first ? 
coz its ez when one guy push him with ton of buff on first place … let me show his log … TOp 100 players in the raid no one is fire so stop posting nonsense picture here
crazy idea my friend, maybe fire do not NEED to be rank one to be good? Fire is doing good in the raid and even competing for the rank one in boss damage on some bosses like for example on Rashan’nan.
let me check khaelt and then other spec like sham, pala , hunter
