Arcane Mage DPS Simulations — Shadowlands Pre-Patch 9.0.1
On this page, you will find a number of useful simulation results for your Arcane Mages in World of Warcraft — Shadowlands Pre-Patch 9.0.1.
How to sim your Arcane Mage
With the advent of certain tools such as Raidbots, simulating your character has now become simple enough that we can recommend even the average player to do so. It is through advanced simulations that many of the recommendations in this guide are found, and by doing your own you can easily figure out what talents you should be using with your particular gearing combination, what gear to equip, what Legendaries to equip and more. Below there is a video guiding you on how to sim your character.
Keep in mind that the following simulations are done with the default T24 Mythic profile. Your own DPS gains will be different. It is always better to simulate your own character.
