Please tell me why is this the most annoying spell to use in dungeons? Anyone else feel the same ?

I’ve stopped using it completely and not noticed any real loss in my dps.
There’s so much stuff to dodge and interact with in M0 (and presumably more so once M+ drops), you’re best off just using Incanter’s Flow.

Incanter’s Flow is superior on average. Gives you lot of mobility and you never have to think about it, while if you use rune of power at the wrong time your dps goes down the drain.

It doesnt fit frost aswell. Also its forced pick for pvp which is even worse lol. They are going to remove dt because its hard for balance but most hunters love this spell. And they still keep rop that is the worst designed spell ever. They balance the whole class about this awfull clunky spell. Class loose nothing if they delete it and adjust dmg. Finally I will be able to do dmg when I need to do it instead of “well. I have all cds up. Just need to cast rune so I can start. Oh sht, I was pulled out of rune with some random mob ability. Okay, blink back. Oh god, now enormous voidzone spawned right on my rune. Okay, its gone, im on rune now. Ah, it disappeared and pack already died? Nvm. Next time I will start my dmg”. The worst feeling ever. No any class have such frustrating ability. Im not even talking about rune in pvp that is also mandatory for burst. Blizz makes 3 supermobile fun spec with high burst. Blizz gives them rune of power so they need to stay on the one place even as frost and fire. Blizz

Increase its area and make it instant cast off the global cd. Skill is fixed.
I just use IF
people keep saying it has more range than it looks like we’re idiots that can’t see it. i think a mage shouldn’t have that kind of spell. boring and takes fun out of m+. remove it completely and add something that we carry & gives buff to everyone around us so we can go and help healers with that. like aoe pi but less powerful.

I wish they would finally let this garbage go. It’s incredible how stubborn and stupid Blizzard is when it comes to acting on stuff that is reviled by the community. I hated the MoP lvl100 talents from the very beginning and it’s just so incredibly incredibly sad how ingrained this stinking sh*t has become in our class.
I’ll throw a big party when they finally realize it’s the most boring and bullsh… spell in the game and it ruins the class as a whole because it’s so strong they have to design the class around it. Incancters Flow even still being in the game as this pseudo alternative is such a joke.
But yea … new talents! Choices! Right?
To be clear, I generally love having talent trees back and thinking about which combinations may be fun, it’s just a huge failure on Blizzard’s part that they are so MASSIVELY incompetent at tuning. I mean we’re not talking about a few % DPS difference between different builds, we’re talking about Mages being trash tier to begin with and then having the option to be even more trash by taking any other build than SKB. And then the buffs that are already hilariously undertuned only buff SKB builds as well. Flamestrike? What’s that?
What a humongous disappointment. Glad I only bought a month of subscription.
Maybe in 12 months the game will be in a more playable state

I don’t usually post and complain in any game, but this spell is complete and utter garbage and it single-handedly makes Mage unfun because of what it entails. I hope and pray Blizzard removes it forever from the game and purges it from the code. Most frustrating, annoying and dumb spell in the entire game.
Blizzard, please, just remove this spell from existence.

Yea its pathetic in dungeons.
Soon as you place a rune of power, aoe deliberatly targets you and goes over it.
Not a one time thing as have seen it countless times using it in dungeons.
Then there is the fact that incanters flow does comparable damage with no need to glue your char to one spot. So the 40% damage increase vs 20% random increase is just silly.
If rune of power did a much higher percentage then it would be worth using, currently its not.

For frost maybe, but arcane…rop is must have I think.
What about some online petition and deliver it to blizz? 
Its clear that they dont read these topics at all…
I dont get it, you have a choise and its stated that IF is better in some cases, especially when you need to move a lot. Why get rid of it when you already have an option that overall is just as good or even better?
If its the case that RoP is always better but only if you can time it correctly then honnestly, you know what the issue is and its not RoP. You have an option, use it instead, dont get rid of something because its not working out for you. At this point its you that are stubborn, not blizz!

Not just in PVE, its garbage in pvp as well.
Delete RoP.

No one likes ROP. There are hundreds of posts indicating that. I would prefer to roll the bones over ROP any day.

Stop confusing “i dont like” with “no one likes”. Just read the second post on this topic and you were already proven wrong.
You already have another option to use, why bring in a skill from another class? Its even passive so you dont even have to do anything!

The only problem with Rune of Power is when I forget to use it.
Other than that, it’s fine.

Hyperbole proven wrong.

Wow Congratz you pointed out that a hyperbole so obvious that even you recognized it as a stylistic choice is not technically 100% true. Amazing man. Let’s close down the forums, smarty mcsmugface here will definitely find a totally meaningless reply to dispell any concerns you might want to bring up.
