Mage WotLK Updates

Some recent changes to WotLK for Mages:

Focus Magic
2 mages can now cast it on each other and get 3% static and 3% procced crit each. De facto a 6% crit talent now.

Mirror Image
Base damage and sclaing on Fire Blast slightly lowered. Crit modifier down to +50%.
Details on the bottom of the post.
Also - updated Water Elemental Scaling info.

Also - you should use them in a macro that casts "1) IV/AP/Comb 2) Trinket 3) Mirror Image 4) Frostbolt/Fireball".
That way, you can circumvent the odd GCD on no-GCD spells.

Recent Changes
Several mages can now cast Focus Magic on each other and gain both, the static 3% and the procced 3% crit.

Frostfire Bolt DoT not scaling anymore.
Living Bomb affected by Master of Elements and Burnout Mana.
Mirror Image scaling info at the bottom of the post.

Mirror Image put all abilities that are off the GCD on a fixed 1.5s GCD. Abilities on the GCD are not affected.
It affects all clicky trinkets, Counterspell and Icy Veins, Cold Snap and similar spells.

Judgement of Wisdom currently has no cooldown, 25% proc rate and returns 1% max. Mana on beta.

About Archmagus

Archmagus was created in 2006, when many of our friends were interested in the fine details about how to play a mage. Much of our time not playing WoW was spent researching and analyzing the nuances of spell rotation, gear selection, and overall fine-tuning of maximizing our Mage's performance.
