I think I love you. I’d kiss you but I don’t want a sexual harassment lawsuit!

Sirroco it is moving forward as primary dps and sigils for burn with 59 nuke loaded just because. I think I could swing 110-130 dps now instead of 100-120! Even more impressive burns. Manastorm is a bit better dmg per mana but with the mana drain may be more aggro for marginal efficiency and I skipped getting it because rains were trash.

Now I gotta go to temple of rob to respec (at least until I raid again)

Doesn't really have anything to do with max dps, but in terms of consistent dps a Wizard with a Rend robe and Epic feels really nice. Unfourtinately once you get to this point you are pretty much done ever needing sustained or group dps anyway since you are probably just logging the wizard on for a raid pop anyway...

56dps sustained without any mana use is respectable. 14 sec click time vs 17 on mage boots (which are less dps chain cast to start with). Is also nice. With this robe and the right tempo and group setup wizards do work well. Better than most scrub dps classes you will invite to a 51-60 group for sure knowing the wizard can also burn.

I wish such an item could be found outside of VP as easily as a mage could get their pets 51-60. It would make wizards viable.

By the time the wizard has it, however, they have no need for groups ☹️

What I have noticed in mediocre “high end groups” is that most “dps” hover between 45 and 70 dps at best, raid geared twinks notwithstanding.

A wizard with such a robe would outperform most xp group mouth breathers by a mile.

This is pretty much the wizard class in general though provided you are ok with being lonely and quad kiting. AFK gameplay (quad kite burn mana bar repeat) solo is typically better or almost as good as even optimal groups in terms of exp gains for leveling.

And yea unless your some kind of amazing raid twink you would almost never normally have a Rend robe 50-59 and when you have it grouping becomes even less optimal for you because you can literally kill almost anything that doesnt summon with just Root and robe click

I love it! I prefer Sirocco because the fire seems to land better, especially in Velious. But yeah Manastorm is technically better for sure. I'm curious what your parses would be with evocation spec. I took conjuration from the get go on Green and never changed it, knowing that I could use conj. nukes and it would effect pets/rods/coth etc.
