First of all thanks for applying to Cerebral.

I'll start with spec and glyphs. Spec is fine, although you should replace your arcane barrage glyph with arcane missiles glyph (you should be using arcane missiles (when missile barrage proc) to clear Arcane blast stacks.). have nothing else to add for the arcane spec, altough i would recommend you to try out fire since it is a lot better than arcane in DS because of the the amount of movement and fights with adds.

now the gear and reforges. You are a little bit below the haste "soft" cap, which is 1505haste unbuffed (you'll reach 2005 with the 500haste from the tier set bonus, and 2005 is the soft haste cap). i recommend you to change just some of your reforges to get that little bit of haste. for example reforge the crit instead of the haste on your head and boots. other than that you seem to understand the reforge prio and gems and enchants.

what "worries" me a little is your lack of experience, you pretty much only have experience in DS with this char. lets hope it is enough for you to know how to play that class and pull good numbers and all that a mage is required to do in certain fights.

I have nothing else to add, will let Ruskin take a look at the app too, I may have missed something.

GL with app,
Magúz

Hello and thanks for applying to Cerebral,

My first question would be why are you not playing Fire? Whilst I respect everyone's decision to play whatever spec they want, pretty much every fight in Dragon Soul benefits fire my a large margin over arcane as most fights either have movement involved or the ability to multi-dot.

Anyway moving onto your arcane spec. First of all you need to replace the Arcane Barrage glyph with Arcane Missiles, nine times out of ten you will have a missiles proc to lose your stacks of Arcane Blast. The haste cap for Arcane Blast is 1268 with the 2pc set bonus, I can see you are over that however due to the large amount of haste on your gear I doubt you can reforge out of any more. Getting the valor points "Tentacular Belt" may allow you to drop some haste and get a little more mastery and crit.

What really does concern me more than anything is your experience of playing the character, you only have 6/8hc DS cleared this late in the expansion. You said in the application that you raidied in WoLK on your priest "Samoth", I presume that is the same on on this realm in the "Horde Defenders" guild. You said that you cleared everything on heroic from ToGC on heroic, I can see that you have cleared ToGC once on heroic and Halion once on heroic, these were on the same day, presumably a boost? As I find it hard to believe you progressed on these bosses and only killed them once and on the same day, the same with ICC heroic, you have not killed the bosses in there many times. I am not calling you a liar, however something is very fishy.

Thx for that guys Unfortunatly with my offciers having these concerns and i agree 100% they dont add up. Also playing a complete and utter waste of spec really isnt what we want just cause someone doesnt like fire.

Anyways GL finding a more suitable home.
