Talent Builds Discussion

[MrBlueMonkie]

WoW just WoW, very nice wish I had seen this before. I did my Protection Pally talent from the first page of this post but had to correct a spelling mistakes. Loaded and looks good so far. Now I just need to do a Holy Priest one.

Looking for a fire Mage build, getting bored with arcane

Looking for a fire Mage build, getting bored with arcane

Let me suggest to wait until you have 40% crit unbuffed. Fire is very crit dependent

[1manarmy]

I should have specified, that I was looking for a level 80 fire build that I could raid in and do dailies. Decked out in ICC and T10 gear

[Kamchak]

OK... the fire build in the wowpopular seems to be a pretty good raid build for me.
I change to fire everytime I do ICC; it moves my crit from around 32% to 54%.
The fire spec is much more interesting to play, if Im not tired.

Living Bomb FTW!!

[1manarmy]

can you copy and paste your fire build in these forums for me pretty please

[Kamchak]

I used the build off wowpopular.com for talents/mage/raid.
Dont select the fire spec under mage; stick with raid under the toon class specs.
Then pull up the top fire build.
Again I have to stress here..... have 40% crit outside of other class buffs and/or ICC zone buffs, or it wont be beneficial.
Glyph of molten armor helps a lot with crit %.

Fire rotation, multiple mobs (3 or more):
Living bomb all mobs
Fireblast rank 8
Fireblast rank 9
Blizzard

Rotation for single target:
Living bomb
scorch
frostfire till proc
pyroblast

Keep living bomb and scortch on at all times for either multiple or single targets.
Magenuggets is excellent for this.

Note: In ICC or above it is rarely a good idea to AoE. Best choice is select tank target (left-click tank or tank icon on left) then hit f key to target what he/she is on. Keep that process up till dead (you or mobs, lol).
Getting aggro from tank(s) is a very bad idea, and makes their job and the healers job much harder.

Sooo, I stopped reading this thread many months ago, think it was page umm... 10 to 13 range. If you ask me this thread is not really usable by end customers. Not because it is a bad idea by ANY means, simply because it is all mashed up. Think of a smoothy made from talent builds. I think that Zygor needs to help the mods re-do this entire thread. Make it a tree structure with a branch for each class. That way when I want to go look at mages I dont have to page through 28 pages of other junk.

---> Root Thread (Custom Talent Builds)
---------> Paladin
--------->---------> Prot
--------->---------> Ret
--------->---------> Holy
---------> Mage
--------->---------> Fire
--------->---------> Frost
--------->---------> Arcane
---------> Lock
--------->---------> ....
--------->---------> ....
---------> Druid
and so on.

Then again this may have been suggested several times already but hey, I am not going to go back through 28 pages of posts myself cause I really don't care about custom built talent trees ... I research and come up with my own, not using the Zygor talent advisor. Sooo... this is just an idea to make things more usable for end users is all

[Kamchak]

I like that idea myself.
Would need to have this done twice though, with the cata changes coming out soon.

This is ea great spec for PvP as a Death Knight both in Arena or BG's.
If you play this build right its awesome. Like me, I got 2400 rating in 2v2 Using this spec. I play DK + Resto Shaman. One EPIC set-up if youre resto shammy is good. Test out this spec in BG's an try to learn how to play it right. And BTW Corpse Explosion is AWESOME! It hits for around 7k when I use it so be sure to pop it when ur nuking targets and when they reach around 10k HP blow corpse explosion and then they should die from your auto attack right after. Good luck!
And btw, Im not gonna tell you how to play DK with this spec, you will have to find it out yourself how it works for you to play in PvP.

How to make .lua Files

Alright so I tried doing a build and saved it as build01.lua. It's not showing up as a build ingame. And the file is being saved as a text file. How do I make it a .lua file to be able to use it?

[Halfass]

Re: .lua Files

Alright so I found notepad++ that seems to work except the new problem is that when I made a Build01.lua file it procedded to wipe all mt talents guids from the addon and I just had to do a re-install to get even the stock ones back.

So here's the deal. I am looking for three builds:

1) Druid Healer
2) Priest Healer
3) Paladin Healer

If anybody can, post these builds, with glyphs and how to install them so that I don't loose all the talent builds.

[cabby]

If you're running windows just use the regular Notepad program. When you chose save as you need to set the type to 'all' and then when you name it Build01.lua it should save properly.
