FAQ
Why is a burst macro important for Fire Mages?
A burst macro for Fire Mages is crucial because it allows you to activate multiple damage-increasing abilities simultaneously. This maximizes the 'Combustion' window, delivering a large amount of damage in a short period.
What is the purpose of [@player] in a macro?
[@player] in a macro ensures that the spell is cast on your character directly. This is useful for self-buffs or defensive abilities like Ice Barrier, preventing accidental casts on targets.
Can I include more than one trinket or racial in a burst macro?
You can include multiple trinkets or racial abilities in a burst macro. The macro will attempt to use all specified items/abilities, but only those that are off cooldown and usable will activate.
