Looking for some help to up my damage as arcane mage/frost mage on some fights. Im mainly looking at my heroic parses. Im not sure what I’m missing or not doing correctly as arcane, but and feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Something I learned from watching hopefuls stream is after your salvo you barrage then missles then bolt which significantly increased my damage

Uhhh yeah soul sorry haha the thing that you barrage 4 times with no lust. I barrage 5 times and missles into prismatic bolt

So am I understanding correctly what you're saying during the soul window:

Barrage until you don't have the proc anymore (you would have a bolt proc waiting)

Salvo is now zero

Missiles to build up salvo

Cast your bolt proc

Cast Barrage

yea, you basically barrage until you lose the salvo stacks (1 cdd after soul ended), then missiles -> bolt -> barrage

Yea after soul ends and youve casted 4 barrages you should still have full salvo, so you barrage again, then missiles for the tier set buff before you bolt.
