With 1.6 just a few days away many of the “jobless” magi are dusting themselves off, or working their way up the ranks in order to fill in that new position. The circus is coming to town and looking for qualified jugglers, yes you heard me correctly jugglers. Where Mages used to have a set rotation come 1.6 we are now a “priority” calling, and mostly with our DoT spells.
Pyromancer and Warlock would not be something you see matched together and working very well up until now, but with the buffs to both tree’s its seeming instant casts are a magi bread and butter. With the changes in both tree’s we can work out synergy between the 2, which is nice because this gives the ability to mix and match many soul combo’s some that aren’t mentioned yet.
Changes to both tree’s are what make both of them together a lethal force:
Pyromancer
- Improved Flame Bolt – Increases damage to all spells by 10% (Up from 10% from Fire spells)
- Spark – Reduces the Global Cooldown of spells by .1/.2/.3/.4/.5seconds (NEW)
Warlock
- Improved Mage Armor – Increases mage damage by 2/4/6/8/10% (Changed from only effected by Warlock Armor)
- Neddra’s Influence – Increases damage done by death and fire DoT’s by 5/10/15% and additional .5/11.5% per point spent in the tree (changed from only Death DoT’s)
These changes spawn a few builds for the new “DoT Juggler” move over Stormcaller.Elementalist there’s a new show in town.
