Overview
Arcane Missiles is a a channeled Damage over Time spell in the Arcane School. It deals arcane damage to a single target within 30 yards. It can be enhanced by spending talent points on [Improved Arcane Missiles].
Functionality
While you stand and channel, Arcane Missiles launches bolts of arcane energy at your target, dealing the given damage each second. Like all channeled spells, the mana is deducted before channeling starts, so the full cost is paid regardless of how many missiles are actually launched or needed before the spell is interrupted or the target is dead.
Rank | Level | Mana | Cast | Description | Cost |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 8 | 85 | 3s channel | Launches missiles for 24 damage/sec. | 2 |
2 | 16 | 140 | 4s channel | Launches missiles for 36 damage/sec. | 18 |
3 | 24 | 235 | 5s channel | Launches missiles for 56 damage/sec. | 53 |
4 | 32 | 320 | 5s channel | Launches missiles for 83 damage/sec. | 110 |
5 | 40 | 410 | 5s channel | Launches missiles for 115 damage/sec. | 110 |
6 | 48 | 500 | 5s channel | Launches missiles for 151 damage/sec. | 279 |
7 | 56 | 595 | 5s channel | Launches missiles for 192 damage/sec. | 432 |
Tactics Notes
This is the mage's best DPS single-target spell. The long channeling time makes it prone to interruption, especially in PvP, but a full talent upgrade makes it uninterruptable by regular damage, though abilities like [Kick] and shield bash will still stop the casting. When fully upgraded, this is a way to do fast (albiet expensive) damage to something that is trying to kill you with melee weapons. Another helpful talent is [Arcane Concentration]. A common tactic with this talent in groups is to cast a fast, cheap spell (like [Scorch] or an upgraded [Frostbolt]) until clearcasting is achieved, then cast a free Arcane missiles.
