Balnazzar is RNG, most runs he'll go down no problem others there will be deaths. Shadow protection from the priest and fire ward help out.

Oooo...i forgot about those..what else...? It seems like i dont do enough damage maybe..i get him down to half health in balazaar stage and then everyone dies.....i didnt use shadow protection no fire ward..gonna try using those next time.
Are you guys running frost or fire on your mages for dungeon farming? I hit 60 very recently on my mmmmp team and still have my leveling aoe build.
Frost is better for trash groups with shatter/cone of cold, I run fire though since I find it more fun and it's good for burning down bosses. Fire does need better gear though and there are several bosses/trash in BRD/UBRS that are fire immune/resistant.
I'd stick with frost until you gear up. Instant flamestrike/blastwave is a thing to behold though.
It's something like this
Some people go the Arcane Power route, I didn't like it because it basically locks you down to a 3 minute cooldown and you miss out on 3% fire crit, 7% fire damage and Blast Wave for trash. I also PVP a lot too. The AP build is great for bosses and a bigger mana pool - in the end it's all about how you like to play. With AP I felt chained to the cooldown and killing trash was boring.
No i agree..i absolutely love Pyro POM but i also love blastwave.....somehow i missed the combination of points and didjt think both were possible...now i get the best of both worlds. I rarely use AP so its not an issue....are you able to down Balazaar with this build without AP? This is peefect since its a pve dungeon and pvp build in one. Im not raiding atm so being fire doesnt bother me. Mainly farming strat live.
Yeah, but maybe one out of every four runs I'll get a random death or two. The main thing is to get fire ward/scorch debuff up and keep the 'tank' at full health before he transforms. I don't really bother with him right now since I don't need his loot and the recipe he drops doesn't go for much on my server so it's not worth the durability loss.
Orbs/epics when I'm doing Strat, I leave group loot on so it doesn't take as much time. When I get bored I hit up Winterspring for a few Eye of Shadow, then the Crusader enchant in EPL. If you farm the same thing over and over you can crash the market so I like to spread it out and keep things fresh.
