[Mage] Cast through spellreflects

[Fwaky]

This is a very simple and elegant exploit i discovered the otherday.

If this is a repost, i failed to find anything while searching for:
Spellreflect
Mage exploit
Cast through immune
Scorch

Here is what you do, when you see a mob cast a spell that reflects spells, just start spamming scorch. It goes through the shield at a rate of about 95%.

I'm not sure this works on warriors, as i ahvent got the opportunity to test it..

[Flail]

You're starting the scorch over 3.5 seconds after spell reflect has been put up.

Dont know, but the mods are on a ****ing deleting binge.

Hm, nice gonna try it out whenever i get scorch on my mage... (usually plays rogue as main )

Elaborate please? Scorch is a 1.5 second cast, invoking the global CD, making it as effective as an instant spell after the initial cast. How is that 3.5 seconds after Spell Reflect? o_o

Generally against warriors, mages make sure to either ice lance, or rank one fireball (since the rank 1 frost bolt applies a slowing debuff that doesn't allow the mage to kite very well -- unless of course, you're impact/frost, then by all means, ice lance away).

Against PVE mobs, I'll be sure to test this out, thank you <3.

You elaborated too much. Make that first part more concise ^^

For tips against warriors, you can CoC when the reflect comes up, it only lasts 5 seconds. Or you can wait 3 seconds and start a frostbolt.

Just use a ice lance perhaps?

[pabby]

i usually just flame strike ;p

[Happy2k]

Im melee..

[Zacaria]

i could see this as actually being helpful, good work

[nerfavari]

uh , spell reflects on alot of mobs have a 50% chance to reflect, its not always 100%
this is nothing new that our scorch made it through the shield a few times

When i see warriors do spellreflect i cast CoR rank1[curse of recklessness-lock]

now that is a cheat =p

Ice Lance gets reflected.. it's a missile type spell, so it reflects.. scorch has no bolt or missile style shot, so it doesn't reflect. Common sense.

[Navivan]

it does not work vs warriors, you get the scorch back at you, just tested it

[Hiselor]

WAIT!

Use arcane explosion to remove se spälreflecxt!
