Why should I use a burst macro as an Arcane Mage?
Burst macros ensure all your offensive cooldowns and trinkets are activated simultaneously, maximizing the damage window. This precision is crucial for Arcane Mage's highly-CD-dependent burst cycles.
What do /use 13 and /use 14 mean in these macros?
/use 13 and /use 14 refer to your top and bottom trinket slots, respectively. This allows the macro to automatically activate any on-use trinkets you have equipped.
Can I add other spells to these burst macros?
It is generally not recommended to add core rotational spells like Arcane Blast to burst macros. Burst macros are designed to activate cooldowns and trinkets, allowing you to manually weave in your damage rotation for optimal play.
