What is the dps sequence for an arcane mage? My frost mages just spammed frostbolt which made boxing pretty easy. If arcane was that easy it may be worth trying.

Arcane Blast x3, then Arcane missles. Just castsequence it.Quote:

Its pretty awesome DPS, even at 75.
Does arcane missles break follow still? I remember having that problem in BC with my 3 mages when I did arcane back then.
With the changes that they made to deep freeze has anyone been able to find a way to add it to their /click macro rotation? I did some testing on a target dummy but it didn't work very well because the dummys aren't actually immune to stuns.
Since we are sliding over to arcane here, I dropped that since my button spamming didnt work well with Arcane Missile as it's channeled and my button spamming interrupted that - Is there a way to fix that?
/castsequence [nochanneling] arcane missiles,
something like that
or you can add " /stopmacro [channeling] " at the start of your macro. I use that on my boomkins.Quote:

Even with a decent click macro I don't see how you could not end up doing nothing at times from either clipping your channel or not having your click timing EXACTLY right and end up waiting for a couple seconds after the missiles (i think there's a proc to cast them at like 2.5 sec vs normal 5 sec)
This is what I'm using on my (lvl 76) arcane mage:
/castsequence [nochanneling] reset=combat/target Arcane Barrage, Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Blast, Arcane Missiles
Reading the above posts, maybe I should dump the arcane barrage, but all my other characters start their dps rotations with instant casts too, meaning I can use it while they're still moving into position during trash etc.
I dont use click macro's at all, so if you're looking for something specific to that I cant help you I'm afraid.
does the [nochanneling] keep you from interrupting another channel with a cast?
