Hey guys, just a video talking about the state of Mages in the second raid tier of Shadowlands, Sanctum of Domination, SoD. A week and a half passed, long enough to make the first assessments of what’s good and what’s bad for your guilds progression.

I farmed 40+ lvls of renown and arcane mage is so boring
Also thematically not that fun
can you do the same video for M+? i would really enjoy this 🙂
nice video too
I've been playing as fire and been doing decent in my guild. The higher tier guild I also run with I tend to have some fights where I do better than frost and others no so much heh. Soulrender is probably the worst for me as fire mage, I can't get anything to line up with the adds.
I miss fire 🙁
My guild is currently progging mythic eye and even though me and the other arcane mage are topping the meters, that fight just doesn’t feel good to play as an arcane mage. Orbs not hitting the boss, ordinance taking 2 years to give you the buff, just not fun.
Attempting final 3 on heroic tonight as Frost. Fingers crossed!
🎶im just a dreamer🎶
Progression heroic with my guild as fire. We are 2 mages in the raid team, my raid lead who is a frost mage, and me as fire. We are a little bit apart in dps but he is also a way better player than me. Fire is still pretty severe in terms of items. Don't even bother without int increase trinkets… The burst cd dependency is problematic on some fights in there, especially Fatescribe. That dude is a nightmare to line up cd with. Essentially we decided the best thing to do was just to use it whenever its up and try to pump as many combusts out during the fight, either use it for aoe cleave on adds or for ST on boss. It is also nice on a lot of fights to have scorch and frenetic speed. Fire is a decent pick on many of the fights that are more mechanic heavy, it won't pop out the best dmg, but will have a lot of good movement and utility. Such as a cheat death and ofc iceblock etc.
It's kind of nice to see other specs do well in an expansion, someone has to come in last place, right?
How do you swap for arcanr if you are venthyr Frost? Are they really switching covenant?
warlock is to strong but blizzard think warlock is bad
I'm still fire. Excited to see what the new Dreamweaver tree plays like next week.
Nice one!
It just feels unfair to me that rogues cried a little bit in CN and ended the tier with one of their specs being really strong (sin) and have 2 very strong specs rn, while mages , because they 're more popular, get this dead tiers like this one or BoD. I'm progressing as fire and while I do decently, I'm parsing 95s and I'm still 2nd,3rd to some fights ,below our havoc and our BM. Good players ,but nothing special 🙂
Can you make a video about m+ I’m really confused right now back in 9.0 i was fire nightfae now i switched to vynther frost but i see kyrian arcane is just better than frost
Ive played all Mage Specs now but dunno, Frost is just boring with 0 change in rotation even with CDs and the Procs dont feel exciting, Arcane (Kyrian especially) has a Changer in rotation every 45 seconds but the in between is sooo boring and not exciting and it feels awful if you need to move and lose sooo much dmg in your CDs. Ill be swapping back to fire next Week because in my Opinion Fire is the most fun Spec, it has a Super fun CD Rotation for AoE and ST and also this excitement when you get Hotstreak feels also sooo good. Atleast thats my PoV
Mage could do with a bit of a buff.
Man forget about mages. Fury warrior is at the bottom of the charts. Even with sinful surge, I feel super weak. No wonder Ive been queueing for SoD premades for 3 days and received no invites
