The Magician's Tower

Wire wrote: Right now each click effect adds two offensive melee procs to the Pet in slots 10 and 11. That meshes well with most of the procs we currently use:

Slot Effect
1 Primal Fusion
2 Iceflame Tenement
5 Talisman of the Lynx
9 Second Spire of Elements
12 Third Spire of Elements

It appears as if the only difference between the click effect at different tiers is the hit limit on the amount of procs. What's weird is that each click effect actually calls different procs - but they all do the same amount of damage, 1500. If the hit limit stays, a shorter duration buff with a higher procrate might be better to get the damage out there more quickly and let other effects like 2nd Spire or Iceflame do their thing afterwards.

The first proc buffs the caster with a +1500 spell damage effect for the next spell cast. This sounds good in theory, but it will not stack with things like Talendor's Aura (+740) and Second Spire of the Minstrels (+500), so in a lot of raiding situations (I'm mostly talking about the raid BP's) the overall effect is going to be halved. Would moving this effect to a different slot allow it to effectively stack? 17 hits x 1500 damage = 25500 in theory. If you add in the fact that spell damage may not stack, the overall effect could be around 12750 from 8.5 average melee procs and 6460 from 8.5 average spell procs under Talendor's. That's potentially only 19210 total damage at UF-T8 raid.

I'm somewhat concerned about the overall DPS output of these BP's, since they're on the same timer as the SoD BP. It does give us a nice stacking ability which we can use on top of Frenzied Burnout while maxing, but on longer fights or in groups/soloing situations, Mages might still use their SoD raid BP over this UF-T8 raid BP. They'd almost definitely use their SoD raid BP over the UF-T6/7 BP's, or any of the UF-T9-6 group BP's.
