Fire Mage Sequence Spec Info
- Goal: Deliver sustained single-target DPS by maintaining Living Bomb, maximizing Fireball usage, and leveraging key cooldowns and procs (Pyroblast, Combustion, Inferno Blast) through mod keys. The sequence is designed for smooth core rotation and rapid access to burst or utility spells as needed.

Core Rotation Includes:
- Living Bomb – Keep up on the target at all times for continuous DoT and explosion damage.
- Fireball – Main filler spell; use when other abilities are on cooldown or when fishing for Heating Up/Hot Streak procs.

Modified Keys:
- Shift = Pyroblast – Use when you have Hot Streak procs for maximum impact.
- Alt = Combustion – Best used after a strong Ignite, typically following a crit Pyroblast.
- Ctrl = Inferno Blast – Use to secure Hot Streak or spread DoTs in multi-target situations.

Frost Mage Sequence Spec Info
- Goal: Deliver sustained single-target DPS by maintaining Living Bomb (if talented), maximizing Frostbolt usage, and leveraging key cooldowns and procs (Icy Veins, Ice Lance, Frostfire Bolt, Frozen Orb) through mod keys. The sequence is designed for smooth core rotation and rapid access to situational spells as needed.

Core Rotation Includes:
- Summon Water Elemental – Summoned if you have no pet, ensuring your Water Elemental is always available.
- Living Bomb – If talented, keep up on the target for continuous DoT and explosion damage.
- Frostbolt – Main filler spell; use when other abilities are on cooldown or when fishing for procs.
- Frozen Orb – Use on cooldown for high AoE and proc generation.

Modified Keys:
- Shift = Icy Veins – Major burst cooldown. Use for increased spell haste and burst phases.
- Alt = Ice Lance – Use when Fingers of Frost procs occur for instant, high-damage casts.
- Ctrl = Frostfire Bolt – Use whenever Brain Freeze procs.

Arcane Mage Sequence Spec Info
- Goal: Maximize sustained single-target DPS by maintaining Living Bomb (if talented), efficiently stacking and spending Arcane Charges, and ensuring rapid access to key procs and utility spells. This setup uses modifier keys for instant AoE, proc usage, and self-buff placement, while automating your core rotation for smooth and responsive gameplay.

Core Rotation Includes:
- Living Bomb – If talented, keep up on the target for continuous DoT and explosion damage (not core for all Arcane builds).
- Arcane Blast – Main filler spell; use to build Arcane Charges for increased damage.
- Arcane Barrage – Use to clear Arcane Charges for high burst damage or to avoid mana issues.

Modified Keys:
- Shift = Arcane Explosion – Instant AoE damage for multiple enemies or add waves.
- Alt = Arcane Missiles – Use when Clearcasting procs occur for instant, mana-efficient damage.
- Ctrl = Rune of Power – Place at your feet for increased spell damage while standing in it (self-cast).
