  1. Wow this guide was WAY better than I'd have ever expected. Well done. Would kindling or pyroclasm be better for the harder mythic fights like painsmith/sylvanus?

  2. Thank you for this. I've been struggling with Kyrian Arcane and using frost as a crutch on harder content. Too bad I spent some dust crafting so I'd need to get more dust. What are your thoughts on SKB fire as compared to Venthyr Frost or Kyrian arcane? Or, haha, Kyrian fire? Radiant spark is nice in that it is a short cooldown, so it would likely be available for the SKB combust.

  3. Meanwhile I am sitting here with regular 24s combustions going mini-big-mini as venthyr.

    Tested both playstyle, NF is definately a bit stronger, but Venthyr feels so much smoother with on demand fire blasts

  4. is it worth it to switch to fire? i currently play venth frost mage, and i have been wanting to give fire a try, but i never wanted to switch my covenents because im screwed if i end up not liking fire, and am worried that i wont preform as well as fire since frost seems a lot less punishing for a mistake. but fire seems so much more enjoyable, i just never known if it was worth it to either play venth fire, or switch to nf

  5. Off topic, but are you using a masque skin for your weakauras and actionbars? If so, what is it called? Also amazing video. There are so many conflicting statements I hear about the rotation, shifting power (when to use), and so on… This helped immensely. Thank you!

  6. As a Mage name Natsu I have always been a follower of the Fire Dragon Igneel and will never stray from the path of burning ashes. May Fire reign supreme once more…P.S I have been decline many raiding guildies because I remained Fire "eat @#$%" LOL

  7. Hey man, really great guide, diving only into what's important. I have an issue though: when trying to enter skb combust without heating up (hardcast pyro > scorch (with IB inside it) > pyro I only get heating up instead of hot streak most of the time. My guess is that I'm not using the first instant pyro fast enough so the end of the scorch cast hits into the proc and doesn't give heating up. Is there a a trick do to with input lag or something else? (i have a couple days on fire mage, i dont know the tricks if any)

  8. After playing fire mage for years this is the first time that i'm confused.Everything is perfect when i do my first combustion and then the SKB one but when my 2nd normal combustion is coming off cd i just don't have enough charges of either fire blast or phoenix flame and shifting power is always like 15 seconds on cd when i go into my 2nd normal combustion so i can't use it to get charges back.(Assuming by myself that i don't delay normal combustion cause it will be a waste). I have been practising it for almost 2 days on either heroic or dummy but i just can't figure it out.If i do a hero pull everything is fine but without it i'm having the above problem.(As kindling overall).Maybe is there a limit on how many charges you use into the SKB combustion? I have been trying to get 2 infernal cascade straight away and then phoenix flame for the final pyro.I would really appreciate any advice if you can. Thank you ! <3

  9. Thanks for the guide preheet. lotta helpful info here. When have you found is the best time to use shadowed orb?

    im venthyr fire atm and looking at some parses from dylemma with SKB it would appear pyroblast prepull into fireblast, mirrors, orb–> combust is best but it feels strange to do orb outside of prepull
