Mage accomplishments thread!!!Follow

I found out that a rogue is the best pet you can bring out against a lock.

Soloed H-SP (except for second boss).

I've had my epic flyer for about 10 months now (best investment ever imho), got my sweet, sweet bear mount a few weeks ago.

We got Kalecgos down for the first time about a month ago, that was an AWESOME feeling. That fight is such a pain to get the hang of (was for us at least).

Wearing 6 pieces of T6. Kind of a waste, but I never got the other drops to swap in to get back to just the 4pc bonus.

Like Anobix, I'm waiting for the staff and the trinket from Illidan. We've stopped doing Hyjal and the damn Tempest only ever dropped for us twice (curse our DKP-hoarding warlocks).

I'm with yas six string, those are really hard acts to follow, but here goes. I have finally replaced all but my cloak and one ring, and one trinket with t4 epics. I got the t5 shoulders the other night. I've found an awesome raiding guild and been running SSC, TK, and mount hyjal every week. Got the staff of infinite mysteries last week, and boots of blasphemy last night.

I have only ever played this mage in wow. No alts. They would have to nerf mages to the point of being sheeps ourselves before I stop playing one.

"flame on bitches" - Warlord Filterspawn

Topped the damage meters on Supremus (and he did follow me a few times), was also the same night my guild went to 3/6 BT.

Unfortunately for my mage her achievements are mainly raiding related, rep and rare drops get covered by my alts.

I actually have Hood of Hexing! on my mage now! Can i hear a w00t? Had to roll against a rl friend of mine... that kinda sucked tho.

Due to gearing my warrior up for arena (which I havent found a 2vs2 for yet) i've spend all of my badges on the nethers i needed for that bs mace. So now im looking to upgrade my spellstrike legs via an other route.

About time there was thread like this.

[Merciless Gladiator's Silk Pants]

His duplicity is hardly surprising! What Rabble!

Would love to raid with my mage, but could never seem to match my schedule up with my guild's...then they broke apart (having never moved past kara)...

Biggest accomplishment for me by far is my S3 Arena title. Just Challenger, but damn it, you don't see many mages with Challenger in 2v2, so I'm a happy wannabe Gladiator.

edit: rate up for everybody here. Fun thread. I like having our own twist on Weekend Goals.

Lmao bad armory time, i was messing around in a heroic shattered, went arcane missle, arcane explosion, and improved blizzard, changed back after the run. I use the fetish, and run 2/48/11 99% of time except for illidan/council. But aoe run of heroic shattered made it worth going aoe spec.

Even in my raid fire gear you will see me cap at 126-131 hit usually, 3 elemental shamans full time raid with us =)

Reason for the other gear in the instance i just stacked a bunch of crit for AE and was playing with different trinkets in arcane spec, usually run skull of guldan + hex shrunken head or serpent coil.

Speaking of this im having a hell of a time deciding on second trinket, when i need hit in the rare times i dont get ele shammy i of course go scb, but rest of time??? the hex head rated higher dps, but i dont think any of the spreadsheets take into consideration the effect of proccing the +spell dmg from scb while the skull is procced for the haste.
This with a bloodlust ive reached 1.2 second fireballs and wondering if the spell dmg stacked then wouldnt outweigh proccing the hex head separate. Havent had enough raids to try both since getting skull but its something to play with.

Yay!! today after many attempts poly turtle dropped for me, then got cloak of the illidari council. =)

Also first night of attempts on Brutallus, only a few tries and only 64% best but working out the threat issues and getting healing straightened out. DPS seems like its going to be fine, running about 24-26k raid dps without drum rotations or full dps consumables. Should be ok when we add the bloodlusts, destro pots, etc. I am dropping blast wave,dragons breath, and pyro for the fight to get one point to clearcast while keeping icy veins, and considering dropping inceneration to get 2 more points into clearcast. Love the fight so far though.

hey all

We are at M'uru at the momenent so I have been at Illi lots of time. Still a fun fight :)

Still need boots for t6 thow and A better weapon than my [The Maelstrom's Fury].

If u like to ask me for advice for sunwell then u welcome to post a Quistion.

Hi Troldeerind, thanks for the help=). The question a few posts ago is about the trinket combos, because I believe all of the spreadsheets just figure the dps of the trinkets for the procs as damage x (proc uptime/length of cooldown) or something to that affect. In this case the hex head is going to shine over the scb. But have you tried at all the scb being procced during the skull proc and would this put the scb on equal or better dps than using the hex head and skull and rotating procs. I know what the tc spreadsheets are going to say but i dont think they use a formula that puts the added haste being available during simultaneous use with only one of the two trinkets. Also if you dont mind what kind of dps are you running on brutallus before the molten fury. We havent gotten into molten fury yet but is 1700-1800 pre 20% going to throw me well into the 2000s once we get into that awesome 2million molten fury and start using the destros and bloodlusts?

Thanks.

My mage is just an alt (and mostly only a Daily runner at this point) so certainly can't compete with the BT/SWP guys around here, but I fell into a Kara pug the other day while still wearing mostly quested greens/blues. Got second in DPS on Attumen while decursing most of the fight, first on Moroes by about 7% and first on Maiden by about 6% before I had to go. Got a couple of purples to go along with my greens.

Was a fun little trip nonetheless.

Obtained Merc. Gladiator Silk Raiment yesterday after a very long pvp session.

And don't about where you in relation to other players. Yes, they might have better gear, but in the end, it's all about how much fun you are having in the game.

I finally got to 58, if that matters to anyone.

Oh yeah. I already did only a couple of quests and got some upgrades and my bonus fire damage went from around 30 to 100something lol. I'm liking it. Will need to get some minor enchants on the stuff, since I have a butt load of mats on my enchanter

I know its not a big deal but I was pretty excited about it...Dinged 40 last night. Its so funny cause all this time I have been riding around on my pinto horse ...ugly thing but boy he gets to to point B :-) and whilst I am riding around STV and Hillsbrad and Arathi I am wondering how in the world you WoW vets tolerated running around these places without a mount!!! I got mine at exactly lvl 30 and I dont know what I woulda done without it lol.

Yes, it's very grueling, especially when I don't really like PvP.

Anyways, completed S2 set, minus gloves, which I managed a while ago to get S3. Working on the off-set stuff now, but my hearts not really in it. I'm sure I'll burst into a PvP grind mood again soon.

I had a mage /point and /laugh at me, who was in full T6. As you can see from my sig, WoW is not my main game, so my time is spent mostly in FFXI. But I did have to wonder at how much time was spent getting that set that could have been spent doing something else....

Solo'd Gorlash (42 elite) at 40 a couple of days ago... When I started it and my opening pyro hit him for 5% of his HP I really didn't think I was going to make it =)

I killed Hogger, top that.

My 1st ever Tier item was the T6 Helm from Archimonde.

I hit 70, finally. Took me about 6 months, but I can fly now. :) WTB Tome of Conjure Food VIII :)

After procrastinating for what felt like forever, I finally put on my grinding hat and bought the 8000 honor PvP trinket, and the S2 legs.

My mage has been my main source of PvP.. even some arena action. But a major component (the trinket) was missing and I just didn't care for the longest time. Escape artist.. blink.. iceblock.. I don't need one.

But as time wore on I realized I could burn all of those and still need just one more. One more would have made the difference in so many fights.. so I went for it.

Anyways, that's all. S2 legs and trinket :) Yay.
