The second aura recommended is Twincast Aura.<\/p>\n<p><u>Sustained aDPS<\/u> via a Spell-Rotation \u2013 An optimized rotation encompassing four spells that refresh in the same order. Example: Double-Grip Rotation below:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Ecliptic Reinforcement<\/li>\n<li>Mindreap<\/li>\n<li>Throttling Grip<\/li>\n<li>Throttling Grip<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><u>aDPS Burn<\/u> \u2013 This is where you activate special abilities coordinated with other players during a \u201cFULL BURN\u201d call. Many top-tier raid guilds full burn as often as they can, but there may be certain situations where you need save them (briefly) for specific points during an event.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Forceful Rejuvenation<\/li>\n<li>Ecliptic Reinforcement<\/li>\n<li>Illusions of Grandeur<\/li>\n<li>Improved Twincast<\/li>\n<li>Calculated Insanity (AA)<\/li>\n<li>Social Key: IoG + ITC + CI + FA (and group announcement)<\/li>\n<li>Mindreap<\/li>\n<li>Chromatic Haze<\/li>\n<li>Social Key: Chromatic Haze (and group announcement)<\/li>\n<li>Robe Clicky Item<\/li>\n<li>Throttling Grip<\/li>\n<li>Mind Vortex<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>It is important to not skip a beat on burns and general sustained aDPS.

Your Illusions of Grandeur AA is single-handedly the most desired, activated ability for all casters in your group when unleashed during a full burn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: rgb(0, 213, 237);\">Combate Innates<\/p>\n<p><u>Mana Rebirth<\/u> &#8211; This is a single-target mana-strike buff. It works with Mana Radix Aura. Unfortunately, due to it&#8217;s recast time, it&#8217;s not worth upkeeping mid-combat. You may end up casting less damage spells. However, you can toss it on casters and hybrids (along with NPT) while waiting around buffing before an event is triggered. Note that it lasts 4 minutes and has 20 procs of use. Any twincast spells will consume two procs.<\/p>\n<p><u>Night&#8217;s Perpetual Terror<\/u> &#8211; Any caster that melees should have priority in receiving this buff. Casters are capable at achieving higher crit damage procs with this short-term buff than all other classes. Hybrids would be the next category of classes that benefit after casters. Pure melee classes receive low benefits, damage-wise.

The only time you want to use this over Mana Radix Aura is if you are dealing with a lot of personal runaway-emotes on an event where the bulk of the group is standing in a stationary spot. One such place I can think of is the Doomshade raid event in ToL.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-5 fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-six\" id=\"four\"><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-left fusion-no-large-visibility fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-small-visibility\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#ed1c24;\"><\/div><\/div><span class=\"awb-title-spacer fusion-no-large-visibility fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-small-visibility\"><\/span><h6 class=\"title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Burns<\/h6><span class=\"awb-title-spacer\"><\/span><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-right\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#ed1c24;\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>Before you burn, make sure mobs are tashed FIRST.

That&#8217;s why you need to be careful to not waste your Spire of Enchantment ability.

Keep in mind that certain abilities do other things beyond simply raising Crit Chance rates. These include spell damage modifiers, weapon-proc damage modifiers, etc. In fact, casters in your group care more about your Illusions of Grandeur ability more so than any other aDPS ability they receive during a burn &#8211; regardless if they are over the Crit Chance rate cap.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #00d5ed;\">ENC, RNG and BRD do Things for DoT Crit Chance Rates<\/p>\n<p>This is helpful to understand for your personal DPS. You may find yourself being way over the 100% Crit Chance rate for DDs, but yet narrowly at the cap for DoTs. If you&#8217;ve studied the chart, enchanters have the lowest Crit <span style=\"color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);\">Chance rate out of all three DoT caster classes.

While everyone sits around, gets buffed and waits for an event to get triggered, this is the time to discuss your burn plan. Do you burn right off the bat? Do you wait 2 minutes into the event when there are a wave of adds that can optimally be burned down with AEs? Things like that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #00d5ed;\">Burns are Based Around the Availability of ITC<\/p>\n<p>Most burns for casters are centered around the availability of Improved Twincast &#8211; not IoG. Study your reuse timers below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Chromatic Haze &#8211; has a 10 min reuse time.<\/li>\n<li>Illusions of Grandeur &#8211; has a 12 min reuse time.<\/li>\n<li>Improved Twincast &#8211; has a 15 min reuse time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your caster group&#8217;s burns are most impactful when all abilities are used together with ITC. ITC guarantees a spell lands twice for double the damage. Just because your CH and IoG are back up sooner, that does NOT mean you should just go ahead and use it without ITC.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: rgb(0, 213, 237);\">Wait 3 More Minutes for ITC or Not?<\/p>\n<p>The exception to the ITC rule is when an event can potentially be over before it&#8217;s off cooldown. Sometimes, squeezing in that last IoG and CH might make or break the needed DPS to finish off a difficult encounter regardless if ITC is down. This is a judgment call you have to make.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: rgb(0, 213, 237);\">Druid Group Wolf <\/p>\n<p>Group Spirit of the Great Wolf is a druid ability that lasts 4:00 min and has a 7:30 min reuse time. If your raid team takes on average 17 minutes to complete an event, then your druid should be using this ability from the start and immediately off-cooldown each time.<\/p>\n<p><i>How does this tie in with enchanter burns? <\/i><\/p>\n<p>If you are burning at the start of an event, then your next burn with ITC will be ready again at the 15:00 mark of the event. Your druid&#8217;s third wolf will be ready at the exact same time. It&#8217;s something worth thinking about if you are unsure how a second round of burns will align with it.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike true burn abilities with 10 or more minute timers, druid&#8217;s group wolf is recommended to be used more often than not due to it&#8217;s constant aDPS rather than skipping out on it for the sake of perfect burn alignment. At best, you can hold off a minute on burning if you know their next group wolf will be back up off cooldown (for this reason, I keep a group wolf GINA trigger).<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-9 fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-six\" id=\"eight\"><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-left fusion-no-large-visibility fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-small-visibility\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#ed1c24;\"><\/div><\/div><span class=\"awb-title-spacer fusion-no-large-visibility fusion-no-medium-visibility fusion-no-small-visibility\"><\/span><h6 class=\"title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Guidelines<\/h6><span class=\"awb-title-spacer\"><\/span><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-right\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-single sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#ed1c24;\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\"><p>aDPS can be a confusing subject for new enchanters. Here are some quick guidelines to help you along the way.<\/p>\n<p>1. All caster burns rely on Illusions of Grandeur, Chromatic Haze and Improved Twincast.<\/p>\n<p>2. All caster burns are centered around the availability of your group&#8217;s Improved Twincast.<\/p>\n<p>3. When burning, after IoG wears off, follow up with Spire of Enchantment.<\/p>\n<p>4. Use Spire of Enchantment off cooldown, each time, during non-IoG periods.<\/p>\n<p>5. Druids are predictable, as they should be using Group Wolf each time off cooldown.<\/p>\n<p>6. Use a GINA trigger to keep track of druid Group Wolf timers\/refresh.<\/p>\n<p>7. Know your refresh timers.

Imprison a bard. Chain that sucker to your ankles.<\/p>\n<p>8. Lastly, always discuss a burn plan with your group.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: rgb(0, 213, 237);\">Help! My Raid Group Sucks!<\/p>\n<p>This may have little to do with your aDPS burns and more to do with other&#8217;s lack of timing. <span style=\"color: var(--body_typography-color); font-family: var(--body_typography-font-family); font-size: var(--body_typography-font-size); font-style: var(--body_typography-font-style,normal); font-weight: var(--body_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--body_typography-letter-spacing);\">You are not expected to know how other classes play and burn. However, I have gotten quite a few messages about what I &#8220;think&#8221; should be going on right before and after I hit Chromatic Haze.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>1. Druids &#8211; They use a spell called Nature&#8217;s Sweltering Wrath that needs to land before you instantly activate Chromatic Haze.<\/p>\n<p>2. Magicians &#8211; They need to finish unleashing their pets (ie: Host of Elements) before you activate CH. Then they will cast an &#8220;&#8230;of Many&#8221; spell immediately when CH is activated.<\/p>\n<p>3. Necromancers &#8211; They are a DoT class and only care about IoG. Keep in mind that CH affects only DDs, so it doesn&#8217;t concern them much.<\/p>\n<p>4.
