SUNFURY IS BACK! Fire and Arcane Gameplay Review in Undermine(d) raid 11.1 PTR - World of Warcraft

Aaaaaaaaaaaand it's nerfed...

Really thinking about picking up ele this tier

Man I love the look of fire but am absolutely trash with it

i switch to BM for season 2 hope i don't regret it

I just decided to shift from mage, cuz I gave up on most interesting spec for me, arcane. And now they do something I’m happy, but not so much 😅

Hello and thank you. I wonder if you could share all your UI and weakaura for mage. pls

They should definitely rework SS it's really frustrating to play when your output mostly depends on procs rather than how well you execute your rotation

Spriest over-performing? Lol that is shocking

I’m playing wow for 18 years for now. I’ve played every single class and spec in the game and I hopped back and forth from class to class, being mad all the time because I was wanted to stick with one class for many seasons… Except of mage. I don’t know how that happened and why, but I’ve never gravitated towards even giving mage a try in past 17 years. Until very end of Dragonflight season 2, when I had nothing else interesting to do in the game and I had every single class geared full mythic track. Except of mage… Well, as I had nothing else to do I decided to level mage for the first time. I only had time to get basic gear for my mage before DF S3 came out. So I hopped back onto other characters that I was going to gear first for my mythic raid and keys, but as season went through I suddenly found myself logging in onto my mage more and more, and other characters less and less. DF S4 I ended with only 2 classes geared. Mage and DK. TWW S1 - mage is the only class I’m playing ever. I do not want to even log onto other classes at all. Mage is so genius of a class… When you talk about this and that being bad and annoying about mage I’m so confused and every time I wonder… Wait, does this class can be any better? I’m so excited about long time mage players being happy about the changes because this probably means that absolute genius of a class will get even better. In so many years it was only one class I’ve never played and exactly this class turned out to be soooo fun to play for me. IDK why I typed this BTW, just had random passion to do so 😅

The last time we said we loved the gameplay (Sunfury Arcane), blizzard had the big brain idea to gut double dipping and proceeded to fuck everything up.

SF is so fun, please let it be op

Mr. Preheat, can you make a new vid for Dev Evoker pls!! I need an updated insight on Devastation :(

aslong as fire sunfury is pretty good is enough for me to resub

If i want to Play sunfury on Mm+ should i Play haste/versa or haste/mastery? Thank you

Thank the lord. Spellslinger Arcane was obnoxious in group content. Sunfury mobility rotation is clutch in M+

too late already quit the game. getting too old for the over-convoluted rotations. Would probably have arthritis by the time the xp is over. I did enjoy sunfury arcane after not playing arcane at all since the end of WOD. but unfortunately the funner, more synergetic specs they like to nerf into the ground forcing you to play the broken specs with wonky rotations. If i wanted to concern myself with a bunch of if and when factors I would have become a programmer.

I’m thinking about maining mage for once just because I’m interested in all 3 specs. Either that or I stick with my Ele Sham

I'm literally a mage fanboy, I always first pick wizard/mage classes in any game i play. So I've always played mage. Recently my guild stopped raiding, but as long as we were raiding I felt like I'm missing something in my rotations, my damage was always lacking. I've tried all specs and by far my worse is fire. So, since I'm feeling frustrated I'm going to give the fel mage a chance while trying to keep up both mage and wl up to mythic standards. I just hope i don't have to play affli warlock instead of destro.

evocation and SP should pause intuition duration cuz it feels horrid that it can proc from each channeling start and by the time its done you lost the buff

Personally I’m real exited for Frostfire Frost Mage, wanna see how the chances are going to impact the hero talent.
On a side note, happy to hear “positive” review (overall) of the class going foreward into 11.1!

I'm glad blizzard hasn't stopped looking for a solution to the void left by the double dipping for Arcane, I'm excited for Sunfury Arcane and those Arcane Soul windows! Hope we don't end up ignoring clearcasting procs like we did for a while with Fingers of Frost, It's not very fun to be swimming in resources that you can't spend.

Holy shit is that Tom Selleck? Where did Preheat go?

After watching the PTR vids and knowing Blizz loves fire, I got one to 630 just in case for S2. It's cool to see arcane is looking better. Would be nice to play arcane again.

Sunfury is the most fun gameplay arcane and fire. So I’m very happy

Looking forward to a SF fire M+ guide. It was so fun in 11.0

cool video but cant help to notice.. is your camera background GOONSHIRE INN??

fire is back? lets give it 2 weeks

'Arcane is constantly changing.' is the saddest sentence to me in this. I am not giving up on it, I love the role behind it but the thing is Blizzard is struggling with finding a clear gameplay for it.

isnt intuition going away in 11.1?

Glad to hear some positivity about Arcane, there has been so much dooming around the spec as of late.

What is the addon your using to see your cast time in the mid of screen?

Ok, I hate to ask a stupid question but, what are you using to get your rotation, cast bars and whatever else is in the middle of your screen there to look so clean and readable? I have problems keeping track of everything because my sh*t is just all over the place.

was fire mage nerfed? i cant see any nerfs unless it was frostfire? keep seeing people say mage is nerfed again

Where the talent builds at = (

YOu will be forever remebered as the wow kamala guy.

Fire mage was peak in Shadowlands. It just gets more and more complicated for no reason.

please no more arcane ever again

did i just hear sunkings blessing is gone? 😏

6 to 3 seconds should not make a big difference assuming you dont have 0% haste. I may give sunfury a try, really liked it at the start of the expansion but it got nerfed into shit.

As if to confirm frostfire fire is dead they removed the empowered bolt from SKB combustions, which just feels terrible. Back to Sunfury for sure.

When we get a new video for Evoker? :(

When we get a new video for Evoker? :(

started sf arcane then played ss frost in the season 1, looks like I will too go back to sf fire in s2 !

Haven't played WoW for 15 years, and just had a sudden nostalgia spike for my Blood Elf fire mage. This looks pretty fun, might pay a month to try this out.
And the fact that they added Sunfury-themed fire spells is damn cool, I always liked Kael'thas and I think they did him really dirty in TBC.

I will miss Frostfire fire mage so much, It was so satisfying to play

I just found you, but you play mage and evoker which are my mains, so you've earned a subscribe :D

Would be awesome if you made the same guide for Arcane mage.

Nice vid snowflake

we're a week+ into 11.1 and sunfury arcane feels so weak compared to every other ranged spec =/ the gameplay is wonderful, I love intuition, but the TUNING is @ss lol. arcane needs a 7-8% aura buff for all damage at this point~

Obviously how Im guessing to play may not end up being the playstyle in the end. We may end up holding Glorious Incandescence for intuition or other buffs (or something cringe like that) but so far its feeling good.

Flameshaper Devastation Guide is next! Then Sunfury Fire guide for 11.1. Let me know what you want to see next!
