I want to go back to runescape, and my main combat gear was magic. Was afraid of the huge dominance necromancy had, and felt that it would be a huge learning curve + investment. I can't express how much this video was needed and appreciated! There's no online guide going in depth in magic PvM&action bar rotations, so thank you so much for this
I absolutely love this video. I can't tell you how hard it is to get into higher level pvm. Lots of information is assumed to be known, I've been using the strongest air spell on the regular book for literal years lol.
@@CarguyRS so I’m starting to run strictly magic currently. I do elite dungeons, kerapac, GWD2 and some others. I don’t really style switch. Is the Channellers something I should just camp or is it situational?
Magic rn is super cheap, 10/10 reccomend scooping the gear before its buffed again. It WILL be buffed. The fsoa is getting a buff, so is elite tectonic.
I tried copying your rotation and I have a hard time getting off omni and still having the adren to staff spec straight after. Are you always able to do that or was it only because of the relentless proc?
The number of iban specs will depend on adren refund from crit buffs as well as relent proc. Each rotation will be slightly different, however the main ideas still apply
@@CarguyRS Thank you for the reply I greatly appreciate it just trying to optimize my rotation. But my question was when you did rotation with adren pot you did sunshine, adren pot, conc blast. D breath, auto, magma, psunami, then a omni. Should the omni be consistent or only dependant on relentless proc? I get that after staff spec the rotation is dependant on crits and relentless proc. Thanks again for answering I will make sure to like and subscribe.
@@someguy7952 rewatched both examples rotations, and both do Omni after wm+asphyx. If I get a relent proc on staff spec or nami and have 100% I might Omni early as an improv thing, but is somewhat rare. Absolutely get nami+fsoa spec off before any big hitting abilities
@@CarguyRSwell my bad I don't know what I saw before maybe I accidentally skipped ahead in video as I was writing down rotation.... Tyvm for the help.
Just got into RS3 from OSRS a while ago. Magic has always been my favorite playstyle. Strictly aesthetically, I can't stand dual wield. If im not exactly looking to sweat super hard, but still want to eventually get into some higher end bossing, is it grief to just camp staff? Or do I need to dual wield and only use the staves for swaps?
of all the differences that can affect damage dealt, gconc vs gsonic is probably the biggest one. However, staff camp can kill things just fine if you're not too worried about kill times. something to strike a balance would be use gconc, then staff the other abilities. (or, eventually learn 4TAA and get a mix of dw/staff animations) Overall, gconc is highly worthwhile to use, but its not like gsonic can't kill anything in game, just some dps differences. Keep enjoying the grind fam
Thanks CarguyRS :D I was waiting for third combat style being Magic. I have fun watching these. I have most fun when im on magic after patch. Cryptbloom is just so fun to play with. Also this one is 51 min :O Will be lot of zoom outs 🤣
Can you explain to me why you wouldn't use Dragon Breath > Gconc > Tsunami > 2h Auto + FSOA Spec instead of Gconc > Dragon Breath > Auto + Tsunami? If you use the first order you have 15% critical strike chance on Tsunami and your next Auto will have the ability to also crit. Seems counter intuitive to waste your 15% crit chance on Dragon Breath.
can't 4t an auto after nami. even thought its not a "channeled" its like omni where it doesn't allow 4t'd autos on the abil afterwards. Can't remember if i mentioned this about nami specifically. if some1 isn't worried about 4t, can gconc the nami just fine. not sure which one is higher AVG damage, but yeah, another weird part about which abils can and can't be 4t'd with
@@CarguyRSregardless wouldn't it be more valuable to skip the forced auto attack before tsunami to use it with Gconc to get 15% crit to gain adrenaline and when you force the first Auto at the point of the next ability after the ability following Gconc?
for t90, it shouldn't matter at this point being you can use any mage ability with any mage weapon. The only time this would matter is when going for bis staff/dw, and at that point you want both.
Hello everything is fine? Would you have any rotation tips for those who use revolution. I can't play in the manual, and I can't find good bars for magic combat in revolution, could you help me?
Don't know a whole lot about revo bars to be fair, but the wiki has some basic info on them. There are also specific revo bars for some boss encounters, but that's going to be more AFK focused. Rotations for DPM don't change, so trying to get as close as you can with revo would probably be your bets route.
Virtus will work if you're saving for other items, but eventually will need an upgrade. I'd say once you have fsoa/prayer/seismics, could look into upgrading armor.
everything high level be degradeable of some sort..augmentend or not ALMOST all armour degrades... only exceptions i can think of is havoc and necro gear UNAUGMENTED.
@jeandeasd , unfortunately all higher end armor and weps do all degrade. However if u augment them it will use Divine charges. I was the same way for a while till I started using t90 and higher weps. Virtus is definitely worth it for most content
I"d love an updated guide including new T95 duals and their spec. Its incredibly good, but the backbone of magic is still FSoA sunshine rotations, but while it's in cooldown, you can do the bleeds and t95 spec rotations, so its kind of 2 rotations in the whole minute, 30s fsoa, 30s duals. (this is what i've been studying, but cant get a definitive answer) Also, gconc on 2h, is a game changer.
I think with new t95 bleed buffs, kerepacs wraps are no longer needed for combust, since corruption also has chance to drop all dmg in 1 tick with set affect, i wondered if this made spell caster gloves (10%+ dmg)÷ a good use other than cinders?
@@rickysevens 40% on your combust that you'll be spamming a bit more should still be more worthwhile than a passive proc on other basics that aren't bleeds. Maybe spellcaster could be an alternative if thet stat reduction is needed, but im not sure on that one.
@@CarguyRS having alot of fun when i can spam those abilities lol, i tried the iban staff after watching your video, never knew it hit so hard, nice instant dmg; quite fun to get 100 stacks and spam iban blast in a sunshine. Finishing a dmg rotation with t95 spec att is dropping huge dmg for 35% adren, magic feels abit more dynamic now
Hey carguy. thanks for your vids! I'm maxed and have been camping BIS necro (I know, i know) but I'm looking to do hybrid ED runs and wondering what your recommendation would be on a good style to hybid with. Im thinking of getting Gchain and a 2h for magma tempest so I can chain the mobs down in between threads cooldowns, but not sure if I should do that or melee. Range is sub par AOE without SGB afaik
mage melee would work, ranged melee could work, range mage could work, all have their strengths and weaknesses. mage/melee would be the most straightforward imo, because you don't need to put mobs in chin range, since melee has scythe. I'd just play with all the combos and figure out which one you like the best
It still works the same, and is about 7% less damage than tect. Only place I've really used it is pushing enr at zam on release, and very high enr glacor. Other than that, all bosses are fine with sliske/tect
Just as a side note with the recent combat chanages the removed the ability to force an auto with the targeted magma tempest which is why the buffed its damage so high. Also snapshot and wild magic are the same now snapshot no longer rolls the second hit on the damage of the first it it 2 separates rolls now.
I will say, g sonic is amazing at aoe clear when paired with greater chain. G sonic grants 8% damage per enemy hit stacking up to 80% damage increase for 4 seconds. with a Caroming 2h. Not even including exanguinate, you could g chain, g sonic, and you next few abilities for the 4 seconds do % more damage based on how many enemies where hit by g chain. Follow up with a magma temp or corruption blast and boom enemies are getting hit by trucks. Is it overkill, maybe but i would at least say g sonic is worth picking up Correct me if im wrong
Dying for an update to this with the new t95s, I'm a magic only account and I'm getting pb's sometimes and other times I just know I'm leaving dpm on the table
@@asdfjkl74able so far Ive just been spamming spec as much as I can, and bleeds seem to be super buffed to where they're good in sun (esp combust.) I have a bingo coming up starting on the 15th, and will be using mage on some of the tiles, so feel free to stop by the streams if you need something short term
@CarguyRS ill try to make it for em, I'm usually online at odd hours. When you start a boss (like nakatra) do you open with roar or sunshine? Then just roar and sun on cd?
The fact this is so complicated with necro being better blows my mind. Magic needs to be rebuilt from the ground up to be more like Necro - less abilities with more straightforward effects. It shouldn’t take a PHD in RuneScape to do a magic rotation.
this is doing way to much to be able to use a combat style at a boss....all the update did was ruin combat for anything thats not necro so why waste money on these skills and sit here and try to sweat out a damage rotation ill stick to revo with necro as its still the bis combat anywhere in the game
