This is the new Tier 8.5 (25-man) set for mages, to begin dropping in patch 3.1.x from the Ulduar raid instance. The two-set bonus in particular sounds interesting, as 350 addiitional spell power for 15 seconds along with the other spell damage bonuses from the Tier 7, 7.5, and 8 sets (and equivalents) could push unbuffed mage spell power into the 2500+ range. Makes me wonder what Tier 9 is going to look like..........

>And in theory if you get 2 pyro crits, you'd pop another hot streak

Naaah Pyro doesnt proc HS. Read the tooltip.

The (2) set bonus has a 25% chance to proc 350 Spellpower for 15 secs.
It only procs from Arcane blast, Frostbolt, Frostfire Bolt and Fireball.

Internal cd is still unknown

Now imagine this...2pc t7 with 2pc t8 is a rather meaty sp buff. WIth other trinkets like the sundial and dying curse and the arcane SP buff off your int...someone get me a napkin...im drooling

So will the 4p bonus reset the timer on the procs?

Forever to be known as the "owlbear" set.

Unless changed before moving to Live, the Tier 8 Mage sets look like the following:

ummhh.... why are they putting all that spirit and +spell hit... hope that t9 will be based more on +spell dmg and +crit.

Commento di alexencandar

Slight problem I see in the 4 piece bonus. Isn't it entirely pointless for arcane mages? Won't arcane barrage only do 2/3 the damage without the arcane blastx3 debuff?

I suppose I could just do what I'm doing currently, avoiding my set pieces and fetting better epics to compensate for it, just trying to confirm if this will indeed be viable or not.

Commento di 31389

This might be an odd question, but does anyone have any idea why the mage T8 sets are called "Kirin'dor Garb"? Shouldn't it be "Kirin Tor Garb", after the mage order of Dalaran?...

Part of the reason I ask is that this is the item set currently pictured on Rhonin in Dalaran.

Wait wait wait......

We're not gonna be wearing robes?

I quit.

The increased stats of the T8/8.5 gear is very welcome, especially from a FFB perspective with the Molten Armour spirit based crit multiplier being introduced.

I guess not everyone will be going after all the set pieces, but appearance-wise it does make a refreshing change to the standard caster dresses/robes that us 'squishies' have become accustomed to. It may be cloth, but it sure don't look like it!

Confirmed by Blue that CHEST and HEAD tier tokens will be purchasable with Emblems of Conquest, no word on # of emblems required for each though.

What are they trying to do? A mage without a dress? I mean cmon they went too far now... ;)

Commento di 203693

Known tokens locations as of 16th April@04:45AM are:

Head: Thorim.
Chest: Hodir.
Hands: Mimiron.
Leggings: Freya.
Spaulders: Unknown yet, but Ensidia has cleaned every boss except Yogg-saron at the time of writing, therefore it's safe to assume the spaulders drop off the one and only remaining boss; Yogg-saron.

This comment will probably get downrated over time as the database gets filled and links are being fixed between the items and their respective tokens but if you want the info in the meantime, at least... it's "there".

Commento di Linkedblade

For some reason this on Live, is called "Conqueror's Kirin Tor Garb," with all the pieces called "___ Kirin Tor ___."

And this is the same gear set that Rhonin is wearing in Dalaran, but he isn't wearing the helm. So this change makes perfect sense. . .

If you want to pass on 1 piece to get more off set pieces but still get 4-pc bonus, the best idea would be to throw out gloves, which you can replace with https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=45520 which are the only higher ilvl item than rest of the set (other slots only have 226 ilvl items discovered yet). Also Handwraps of the Vigilant, while lacking the hit and haste, have nice amount of crit rating, spirit (to use with molten armor) and 1 more socket.

Commento di Abomb

update for darkmicron's post about from 3.1 drops
pandora's plea (+108 intellect 850 spell power)
elemental focus stone (522 spell power) or living flame for 505 spell power put is from a use not a proc so it can be controlled
for a frost mage having your ice barrier, water elemental and mirror image i think ( correct me if I'm wrong)

Commento di Abomb

also for mages u can spell steal a buff called holy fury from bloodwarder mender in botanica for an aditional + 295 spell power which will be crazy

Commento di RogueLeader

Wondering if the 2 piece bonus would be worth breaking the T7 4 piece bonus:

T8 2 piece bonus: 350 spellpower for 15 seconds on casting Arcane Blast, Fireball, Frostbolt, or Frostfire Bolt. 25% proc chance, 45 second internal cooldown, so optimally 350 more spellpower for 1/3 of the time.

T7 4 piece bonus: 5% bonus critical damage, passive. 10,000 damage crits is a nice baseline, so that's 500 more damage, plus another 200 from Ignite if you have it.

Pretty hard call, sticking with the T7 4 piece for now.

Edit: trying this out now on trash and bosses as Frostfire, I believe the 2 piece T8 bonus is well worth breaking the 4 piece T7.

Edit Edit: obviously, the 4 piece T8 is amazing for dps; just watch your blue bar. :)

I'm seeing alot of helpful information but we are forgetting a big thing...
POOR UNDEAD MAGES! now they're going to look dumb :(

Commento di Kokorazashi

Just uploaded a screenie of my mage in full T8.5. The gear looks pretty badass on a Draenei, also, don't tell WoWHead, but I done this on the 3.2 PTR, with the Khadgar set, which uses the T8.5 set as a placeholder for the models. Still, a screenshot of T8.5 gear is a screenshot of T8.5 gear.

Commento di Norrinir

Just note, the 4-piece set bonus does not have internal cooldown. It is possible to work few times in row, allowing you to use the same proc more than twice.

Currently, it does not reset the duration of the proc, it only gives you chance to use the current proc again.

Just a side note: information based on PTR premades and comments about the effect itself. Just fyi: best streak I was able to get was 5 instant pyros in row.

Commento di SameN

Imo i don't think this set looks very mage like. We're is the robe? The hood? It's almost looking like the mage can take some heavy punches :S

Commento di 433905

Nice stats....but compare this to other Tier 8.5 sets. What looks cooler? Intimidation is a very important too

;-)

Commento di 250116

"i was talking to a mage on my server today about this... he said he was able to get 11 (yes eleven) pryos in a row"

im pretty sure the 4 peice buff does not reset the timer duration of hot streak, just does not consume the buff, so with the global cool down it would be impossible to get 11 in a row

Commento di 82878

Ya, to be honest, I actually liked the robes. My gnome looks funky with a tunic and pants. But I havent seen this set on a gnome yet, so hopefully it looks cool.

If anyone has any gnome pics please post them so I can see!

Commento di 72207

Can anyone tell me what would give me the highest DPS? The 4 piece bonus from this? The 4 piece bonus from 7.5? Or 2 pieces 7.5 and 2 pieces of 8.5 combo?

Commento di 226081

As of now the chest piece is bugged and covers not just the chest but also the pants, similar to how the Red/Green Winter Clothes show their graphics in both slots regardless of what is actually equipped in the pants slot. Just thought it was worth mentioning.

when i first saw this is thought awh no more big blue dress http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9c4fLflowRw

The proc for the (2) set bonus of 350 spell power gives you a buff that looks just like the one from your Focus Magic spell.
