Well I just hit 22 (Yups i know low and inexperienced) got Scorch and was wondering whether this spell loses effectiveness?
If i'm fighting a hard mob (Level or 2 above me) I generally open with a Frost Bolt, Fireball and then scorch at least once if not twice before the mob is upon me. Then I throw in Arcane Missiles once or twice all the while Fire Blasting when its available and its normally deaded. This leaves Frost Nova and Blink open if i ever get into trouble or if i'm getting hit hard i Frost Nova back of a few feet and carry on scorching.
Mobs my level or lower i just Frost Bolt and Scorch using Fire Blast when its there. I Get a new fire ball at Level 24 and so it might change to Frost Bolt, Fireball, Scorch. We shall see though. This seems to be very mana efficient at the moment good fun all round. All the scorching also leads to quite a few clear casts.
I was wondering how everyone else normally kills stuffs though so please share any killamajiggering techiniques you use and feel free to bash my method in a polite and constructive manner ^^.
The build i was thinking about using is (Bashing of the talent is welcome in the same way as above);
Fire Magic 30 Pts
Impact 5/5
Ignite 5/5
Improved Fire Blast 5/5
Flame Throwing 2/2
Incinerate 2/2
Burning Soul 3/3
Improved Scorch 5/5
Critical Mass 3/3
Arcane Magic 21 Pts
Improved Arcane Missile 5/5
Arcane Concentration 5/5
Improved Arcane Explosion 5/5
Evocation 1/1
Improved Mana Shield 2/2
Improved Counterspell 2/2
Presence of Mind 1/1
I'm unsure about the points in Flame Throwing but apart from that i'm quite looking forward to trying it out...
On a closing note i realise that builds and killamajiggering all come down to personal choice but this has given me something to do on an other wise very boring morning at work.
Rawr!
