[PAID] [Mage] Portal - An Advanced Honorbuddy Mage Routine [PvE/PvP]

Arcane is the not the best choice for raiding heroic it was trade off because you can gem around it and frost so both can be used and thus be competitive on all fights. Frost for heavy movement and arcane for the rest it was not ideal but due to gear level it was the best option to progress, most heroic raiders I know are moving to fire when they get about 570+ ilvl but all 3 spec's are viable but if you need every last ounce of dps fire is the way to go as it performs in all situations.

Millz - does Portal use some of this logic?

When folks like Akraen etc are endorsing the guide...we can bet it is worth utilizing the information!

Yep Akraen is a great guy, he was(till he moved with half his guild) on my server, really fun to chat with the debate "magery" with. As to your question, short answer Yes, Long answer, you can see under Talents where you set the Min HP for the Mage bombs to be applied there is a % of additional power setting as well, this works very similar as Affdots Mage does, basically keeping an eye on your stats Int/Haste/Mastery etc.. and as they increase due to short term buffs/procs etc... the % goes up, you set what % to reapply it at. There is also some additional logic for alot of buffs are about to fall off and your bombs a close to expiring so it "reapplies early". BUT (again this is to my knowledge) it doesn't go the extra mile to add in the formula of how many ticks are left vs how many ticks would be left under the new gained or lost haste, vs how it would effect the overall dmg output vs the lost GCD for reapplying it. At the moment I dont know of any addon that does, not even Affdots does this. Basically it gives you a good snapshot, but won't be perfect.

TLDR: put the setting to where you feel is best depending on your gear/trinkets/procs available, and balance the strength of the reapply vs lost GCDs, perhaps 35% as a starting number, and go from there.
 
Can someone tell me why frostbolt doesn't work sometimes? Portal seems to work awesome sometimes and sometimes it dosent and I notice the filler Frostbolt doesn't cast. The mage just stands there. please post a solutions.

Easiest way to figure out what/why its doing that for you, is to attach a log to your post so it can be looked over and diagnose whats wrong, personally don't have that issue, so much easier to figure out what the issue is.

Certain things should be done every time no matter what gear right? Like any time Meta gem procs, instantly refresh bomb and do it again before it expires. Is stuff like that programmed? When you say 35% and go from there, would you typically move downward? I have been having it 20%, but really have no idea if that hurts DPS or helps. I have purebinding of immerseus, and black blood of ysarj trinkets, meta gem, cloak procs, engineer gloves, tailoring procs etc.
 
Is ti possible to have it automatically interrupt abilities for example EMbodied Gloom on Heroic SoO?

It should, with counterspell etc, but it'll only counterspell abilities which it deems to be interruptible, and if it can interrupt it, it'll do it on cooldown, regardless of what ability is being cast. It does favour the healing NPCs though.
