Yes, i think it works, mirror images will show up on second click!

Note:The examples above are EXTREMELY situational,but still use Mirrors (when you don't have 4pT10)if you're gonna die.They do have a cooldown,but having them on a macro with Combustion and IV and/or trinks will activate them.Not sure if you'll need to hit the macro a 2nd time,I spam buttons so I don't really notice,but feel free to test and tell me how it went.
If you need anything ask,the only class threads I chek are this an paladin.
Now something harder!Quote:

Spoiler:Show
And also, how can i add it here as well? Nomod = normal cast, with shift = in focus, and also a possibility to cast it on mouse cursor target, but without mod alt.
Spoiler:Show
So ok, i desided to respec 1 more time, considered your suggestions, and also included blast wave and dragon's breath in build, cuz it is just 2 points, but u get 2 awesome controlling skills (kiting mobs, helping to save someone in party, world pvp to survive etc); ur opinion?Quote:

What you're asking now might as well be a bot....Quote:

Mmm bot? You know me, i can just change spell names using some template :DQuote:

But the idea sounds so good! You can spam it on enemies you want and u really need while running on some bg without spending 1-3 seconds to change target etc etc. It is still great, but after u showed me this way to play (using mouse cursor target) - it feels like i really want those 2 spells on 1 button work same way!
I mean, u already improved my ingame possibilities so hard, like i can control not just 1-2 enemies, but as much as i want! You kinda solved all paragraphs in my help request, you know.
1) You gave me some AWESOME macroses
2) You improved my ingame situation control
3) I don't need to find addons which work in similar way anymore
4) You improved my mage expirience as well, i think i can damage now much, much harder!
Yeah it's great,the reason for Dragon's Breath and BL is for either VDW adds,they ar an AMAZING CC effect and for RS 25hc if your boomies are not enough or your guild prefers doing it with more mages rather than boomkins(talking about 25hc tho).You're good to go with that spec :)
Yay!Quote:

How should i cap my characteristics? I mean, something like 2800sp, 45% crit, 10% haste and 10% hit? And what about stats - do i need some items with spirit at all?
Also, in pve, is frostfire bolt glyph really better than scorch glyph? (3% dmg and +2% crit vs +20% dmg)
There are 3 ways to go at it when it comes to stats.You can either crit stack(20 crit on all yellow,12 sp 10 crit on red,12 sp 10 spirit on blue).With this you gonna lack a fair bit of sp on end-game but you gonna have more crit resulting statistically in more Hot Streak procs.
Or you can go with sth I find to be far better.Reds are 23 sp and if a socket bonus is below 5 sp,don't gem it properly,just insert 23 sp,yellow-12 sp 12 crit,blue 12 sp 10 spirit.
As for gear,spirit gear is not bad,escpecially f you have no other,hwoever,on BiS gear you will not have a single spirit item,and now since old molten/new warmane decided to ''fix''(it was not a bug) the T9 2p bonus having spirit items when you're high gear is even less usefull
Let me explain how this works and what people did sometimes for more crit.2p T9 gave you 15% more spirit converted into crit rating on molten armor,more mana regen on mage armor and more armor on frost/ice armor.The thing is you could swap pieces of T10 with T9,cast molten armor,then put T10 back and the extra % crit remained(it was ~1-2% usually,not bad for a fire mage).Now it does not work,so you don't really have to bother bringing T9 gear with you.Some mages really liked to go with say festergut 25hc belt and wand from vdw when this was around,but now that way of playing will be even worse.
Your BiS gears are as follows:
Head:T10
Neck:Chocker
Shoulder:T10
Chest:T10
Back:RS 25hc
Wrist:RS 25hc
Hands:T10
Belt:Marrowgar 25hc
Legs:T10
Boots:Festergut 25hc
Ring:Loop of the endless labyrinth(hc)
Ring:Ashen band of bla bla bla
Trinket:Charred twilight scale
Trinket:Phylactery of the nameless lich
Weapon:LK 25hc
OH: BPC 25hc
wand:Rotface 25hc
The % in hit ,you have 3% from frost talants.If you're alliance and want to capitalize on more sp/crit or w/e you'll have 1 % from dranei and boomkins,spriests and 1 more class i think give you another 3%.So you have 7% from outside sources.The spell hit cap is exactly 17%(note this is for your hit cap,not your images,your images will always have misses).So if you're alliance you'll need 10% hit,if you're horde you'll need 11%(this is of course if you want to maximize,if not just go 11% and you'll not have issues with hit)
As for how your stats will look like,while i had my mage I had
3376 SP
53,32% crit(with T9 thing)
32,54% haste = 1067 haste rating
10,41% hit from items
WOWQuote:

You should whrite your own guide i think, get my bet - it will be pretty damn popular!
Well there already is a very good guide,the first things I learned were from Faelarin's guide(i hope i'm not misspeling his name) and after that there isn't all that much to being a mage in PvE.Plus I don't really have to time to write freely,thanks for the support tho :D and good luck with raiding :).
Sidenote:the stats from my mage that I mentioned up top are not for the BiS list,you'll have higher stats with that list.

Taloring? Enchanting? Jewelry?
