Arcana - Lazyraider/Raidbot Arcane Mage CC

dozey said:
Had an issue with rune of power on elagon during an lfr test run. It kept casting rune of power after every arcane blast. I ran it twice and had the same issue. Its probably an issue with the floor but just a heads up.

As zardoz1 stated on his comment below its a game-bug. New version (2.1.2) is now supporting Incanter's ward, which is a viable option for the encounters that you get frequent damage.
Spec into Incanter's Ward, and dont forget to check Class Config if its enabled (enabled by default).
Talent changes NEED to restart HB.

Seems not to be the cc, cause other cc?s have the same problem with Elegon.
PS: Scorch weaving is dead with patch 5.2

That PTR change is just sad, blizz destroyed all the variety of playstyles, removed hybrid specs.
On a DPS perspective, it wont hurt much, scorch weaving is only a slight increase on single target fights. Next version will have option to select between these two playstyles.

mmh the burst phase seem to work fine with this CC, but when my mage goes down to 80% mana or less, it won't cast arcane barrage to destack. It just rotates with arcane blast and arcane missiles.

I checked the configuration, and if i check arcane barrage at min stack 6 it goes up to 6 stacks and automatically casts arcane barrage so this is far from being optimal ...

I think I meet all the requirements mentionned on the OP. If I missed something just tell me lol
 
any code gods out there help me 2 add use of enginering gloves in this cc :) cause im dumb an forget to click em
 
Really good CC now that I put the right talents lol

It could be better if it handled alter time better. It should wait to have 2 missiles proc to use alter time + arcane power imo.

Hello froggystyle,
Thank you for trying Arcana, I'm glad you are pleased with the damage.
I've added engineering gloves on the latest release(2.1.3). Also improved cooldown usage, thus higher dps.
Have fun with your mage

Hello Scoofz,
Its good you found the right path.
New version has improved alter time usage, rather than delaying cooldown to wait for double stacks, its checking the cooldown and get ready before cooldowns expire.
I'm sure you'll like it.

Strange error on start up

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: key
Bot Stopped! Reason: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: key
 
I was getting the previous error as well. Not sure what I did to fix it (turning AoE off? I dunno).

It's also never using Arcane Missile for me. It just spams Arcane Blast/Scorch @ 6 stacks.

Sorry for the Inconvenience, previous file packed as 2.1.3 was a faulty release with version number 2.1.2. Please download newly uploaded v2.1.3

Using newest Honorbuddy and downloaded the correct Arcana (2.1.3). Still getting the key error even after clearing cache and compiled assemblies. Tried using Tyrael and Raidbot.

EDIT: I figured it out. The bot won't start until you try to use a macro as listed in the OP, like this:

PHP: 
#showtooltip Blink 
/script SpellName="Blink"; 
/script MultiCastMT=2;

If you try to use the macro, nothing will happen (because the bot isn't running) but then you'll be able to start the bot (and then the macro will kick in) and you'll be good to go.


EDIT: This newest version still refuses to cast Arcane Missile for me though. It just casts Arcane Blast, Mage Bomb, RoP, and Scorch.

Having the same problem since last patch, need to use blink macro so that the CC can start. But now the burst phase is really good.

Another thing, it doesn't seem to use the mana gem very often. Is it on purpose? (I believe the more it uses the mana gem the more he can cast AB without scorch weaving)

Mana Gem usage improvement would be awesome!

edit*

after lfr testing....

"-Engineering Gloves is supported now. No setting, will be used on each cooldown as they are on a pretty short cooldown." -> dont work correct, never used my glove enchant

ilvl 471 avg 76k dps without pots and flask *like* :)

Hello,

-System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Issue is fixed.
-Engineering tinkers method, was there just forgot to put it in rotation. Fixed now (2.1.4)

About Mana Gem Usage;
Asking to improve that doesn't really help. Please explain the proper way to use it and why.

I also need advice on AoE rotation, When I try cleaving dummies I never get meaningful higher dps. tab-targeting to maintain DoT and using normal rotation is giving me the best dps.
If you are achieving significant dps boost on AoE please explain me how you do it, so I can code

@Endus, Please delete Arcana-Settings folder in your "Settings" folder. If this doesnt work, check your cooldown settings. Try with different cooldown settings and please report me the results so I can fix it.
It should and is working ok for me. But I suspect it's something about the cooldown setting.

Quote from noxxic arcane mage guide:

Alter Time: Use Alter Time when you have 2x Arcane Missiles, 6x Arcane Charge, and Arcane Power is up. When Alter Time is active, quickly use the Arcane Missiles procs and then spam Arcane Blast.
Click to expand...

The 2 arcane missiles proc gives mana free dps when you trigger the burn phase, then when alter time finishes you get the extra time on arcane power and 2 more free missiles. Not a big deal but might be a slight boost in DPS. (I noticed the burst phase was actually better when 2 procs were active.)

Btw, topped the meter at 130k at 480ilvl on un'sok LFR earlyer :) Ticked the fire blast option and it was like rock'n'roll lol
 
if u manually polymorph ur focus it still trys to cast ur rotation

To Do:
polymorph should be manually castable on focus
