NEW INFO AFTER CHANGES & GAMEPLAY (updated guide coming soon): - Temporal Beacon now heals for 80% of arcane damage and is supposedly no longer split, but self healing is reduced to 40%. Hotfix on 12/2/23 also reduced Arcane Explosion healing by 80% - Upfront healing on Regeneration was halved on launch, so even more reason to rely on a good offensive arcane spell rotation - Entangled Causality has been completely removed for now - can use fire & frost spells freely without damage penalty - Arcane Wands do not currently heal through beacon (hopefully this gets adjusted because tooltip for beacon specifies "all arcane damage dealt by the caster") - Living Flame is Spellfire damage which counts as both fire and arcane so will proc Temporal Beacon for massive healing when under multiple targets - Regeneration not quite as mana intensive as expected (8 casts possible in a row at level 18 with 1k mana) - Temporal Beacon activates instantly so you can start the heal channel and instantly move if you don't need the initial heal on the target just the beacon - useful for putting beacon on your tank just before pull and topping off with a drink - Currently, any mage casting arcane spells within range of someone with a temporal beacon buff will proc healing off their damage. This seems a bit busted and I expect it will get adjusted Thanks for watching!

I'm extremely new to WOW and playing with a pretty hardcore group. Your style of presentation is so hopeful in learning rotations and the "why" behind the "what" you're supposed to be doing. Thanks so much!

Seems kinda like how discipline priest works in retail except with way more focus on mana.

Arcane mage healing sounds so big brain, I can't wait to try it out in dungeons and raids! I'm playing classic for the first time just because of how cool it sounds 😊 Thanks for your guides, i learned a lot from your casting tips video

I find it surprising how many comments I read that dislike the idea of mages being able to heal. Mages are typically capable of controlling magic in their world settings. Which would include causing damage and provide healing. Personally, I enjoy being able to play with something different from what we have had so far in SoD.

great explanations :D

Rewind time is lay on hands on a 30 second cooldown, raids might have 1 or 2 mages take those runes and just keep the buff alive on the tank while they dps. The loot will flow like spice.

Great video

do you think we'll be able to clearcast arcane surge? if so, i think spirit may go up in stat prio quite a bit. maybe even over int? thoughts?

Worth considering for the leg slot is Living Flame, which does Spellfire damage (i.e. Arcane/Fire), and might be possible to buff using AB.

I speculate that clearcasting buff hunting will be the choice to pop up mass regeneration 69% mana cost or 43% in single target regeneration otherwise is to risky to sit with lower 31% and 57%respectively mana when you have 10 ppls in raid in your group ...

Just random comment to boost the algorithm. Good luck!

Temporal Beacon has been updated. Allegedly no longer split, 40% is now 80%, and Tangled Causality is no more, but self healing is reduced by 50%. And the upfront healing on Regeneration has been cut in half.

I need to boost this video with a comment so when I'm Warlock tanking my Mage healers on average will be better.

No living flame?

warriors should have manaburn as an ability

What rune allows me to skip que times?

Surely this is more like Discipline, not Shadow?

Mana cost on regen is wayyy too much. Feels so bad to heal dm at 18. Feels like every pull i have to chug water vs priest being able to down rank and have a beer.

If we have dps-->healers, why would anyone use a classic healer?

It doesn't seem like it's going to be viable vs. all the other true healers. The spells cost way too much mana

I kinda feel like...this is just Blizzard copying Sage from FFXIV. Temporal Beacon is just Kardia, Regeneration is Diagnosis and Mass Regeneration is Prognosis.

Right wand looks like a big deal

private servers been doing stuff like this for decades lol

Mages could be support healer like druid but you should never have more then 1 mage healer in the raid.

mage healers looks bad too mana costy and not sustainable

way too much information,, next time just show a rotation

This mechanic was for smite healing for disc priest. I like the gameplay but I don’t really think mages should be healers. I’m upvoting shaman tanks and lock tanks (metamorphosis needs to be broken down to 2-3 runes) I down vote mage healers and rogue tanks.

Hope this crap fails miserably and they remove it. Classic + does not mean destroying class identity.

How about you just leave the healing to the healers you know the ones with all the abilities to heal, the ones that can heal and not have their major ability nerfed!

Lmao, I can't wait to destroy any mage dumb enough to use this crap in pvp.

I play mage and I promise you right now the only time I will be using a healing ability is for myself, I won't be healing anyone because I am a damn mage not a healer. If I get harrassed to heal all the time because too many people want to be tanks then i guess I will just quit

Oh that's right you can't use it to heal yourse4lf because if you do your dead anyways because all of your damage is nerfed by 50% for 5 mins after using the heals! This game is going to suck so bad, I really think we are all about to waste a couple of days of our lives for no reason at all
