I came back to the game fairly recently and have been playing catch up with my Druid and I just noticed last night that there is no fire aura. What happened? We got a new cold aura, but no fire. That doesn't make sense.
Why are you so concerned about the lower damage proc aura not being continued? That's not a rhetorical question, I'm curious because out of all the spells cut for TDS, this one gets asked about the most.
Because the Fire one has a better name. And Fury of Ro perhaps? I was actually wondering why everyone asked about the fire one as well, My only guess was because druids have so many fire debuffs and that could be seen as advantageous? I always used the fire one on my druid alt, I have no explanation for why. Maybe theres a bunch of people that are the same way?
Resists, perceived or real, people feel like fire lands more (plus the cheesey easy fire debuffs). I sometimes use it when ice aura is getting resisted, and blammo, resists tend to fall off. Obviously could just be perception / RNG, but it 'feels' that way. Mugs
While i would like to see an upgrade to wildspark also since chanters in tds raids cant always play both auras. Mana reciprocation is still superiour to a wizard Even factoring in a 15% increase which is what mana recip got. Based on 1000 casts of claw of the flameweaver ,flashchar,ethereal skyblaze combo only by a small margin 250k damage or so nothing to fret over.
OK i lied Twincast + Amp Aura + Wildflash (if it got a 15% upgrade) is slightly better pretty much only for wizards it seems. I'd guess all other classes the other would be better maybe except necro. I am not real sure if the damage from Amp aura crits or not. 1054 casts 147 flashchar === 15294 = 2248218 95 cloudburst ===== 17947= 1704965 374 claw------ 21666 = 8103084 380- ethereal skyblaze-- 33300 = 12654000 28 ethereal fuse---- (33300+29975)/2 x 28 = 885850 30- ethereal rimeblast--- 29975 = 899250 26495367- total damage 26495367 x .04 = 1059814.68 (Amp Aura) 2903 x 1.15 = 3338.45 3338.45 x 1054 = 3518726.3 Fury of ro = (1054 x .5) x 2000 = 1054000 Fury of Kerafyrm (1054 x .5) x 1550 = 816850 3518726.3 + 1059814.68 + 1054000 + 816850 6449390.98 total damage added Without Upgrade- 15% 1054 casts 147 flashchar === 15294 = 2248218 95 cloudburst ===== 17947= 1704965 374 claw------ 21666 = 8103084 380- ethereal skyblaze-- 33300 = 12654000 28 ethereal fuse---- (33300+29975)/2 x 28 = 885850 30- ethereal rimeblast--- 29975 = 899250 26495367- total damage 26495367 x .04 = 1059814.68 (Amp Aura) 2903 x 1054 = 3059762 Fury of ro = (1054 x .5) x 2000 = 1054000 Fury of Kerafyrm (1054 x .5) x 1550 = 816850 3059762 + 1059814.68 + 1054000 + 816850 5990426.68 total damage added 1054 casts 4137-- 1054--- 4360398 4551-- 105.4-- 477855 5006-- 10--- 50060 5507- 1-- 5507 4893820 Total Mana Recip Fury of Kerafyrm (1054 x .5) x 1550 = 816850 Mana Recip 4893820 + 816850 fury of kerafyrm 5710670 total added damage
to be a bit more specific, the damage is added into the base of the spell, thus allowing haze and IoG to effect it in addition to the critical modifiers that the player has (and i think foci effects but that is dammed hard to prove)
