Tried to gather all the Brightwizard information I could think of and keep it updated with current patches.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/13Bf ... sp=sharing

This is not some sort of "guide" telling you exactly how to play Brightwizard the right way, but more so a gathering of base information mixed with Tips & tricks along with base understanding of how to Timestamp or what is needed to not just deal fluff damage with AOE.

Take from it what you can use and thanks for reading.

[Updated 03-01-2021]
New section: "leveling & powerspikes"

[Updated 12th may 2021]
Combustion section changed, and added two more tips and tricks.

[Update 28th june 2021]
Added more endgame BiS gearing options with season2 ranked set and one more tip and trick.

[Update 3rd. oct 2022]
Ward roadmap replacing gearing roadmap. Since the ingame currencies took an overhaul since latest update.
Little bit of cleanup in old outdated information no longer relevant to the game.

[Updated 14th july 2023]
Added Flamebreath cone to tips and tricks with the following visual rough instimate of the range & width

[Updated 17th Okt 2023]
Added Flashfire Tactic makes your next casted spell instant. This counts for instant mounting, and pulling out a guild banner too.

[Updated 10th jan 2024]
Changed any mentions of the Standard-magearchtype M4

[Updated 7th feb 2024]
Updated the section "7a. Leveling & powerspikes"
With the few reshuffels of T1 unlocking Detaunt and Aoe root abilities

[Updated 23rd march 2024]
Removed outdated Flamebreath frontal tip. Cleaned up Best In Slot gear section & added an example imgur of each gear piece, the talismans slotted, total stats when fully speced and equipped https://imgur.com/a/nCLNDWP)

[Updated 5th june 2024]
Adding the following tips and tricks:
18) Spreading Flames mastery ability now works as a hit per new application of the DoT, making this tool good for procing Flames of Rhuin and Prayers from Warriorpriest. It does not proc Funnel power however so dont worry about blowing yourself up. This is a busted tool for preventing destro mounting up and moving a ram away from the door

19) 4Piece Triump proc gives 130int. This int bonus overwrites any int you have from consumables such as 60int from Tolling Bell.

[Updated 6th June 2024]
Wording on Spreading Flames tip.
Removed Annihilate tip 10) as the early cancel is no longer the case and instead letting the channel run its full course will deal 4 ticks.

[Updated 23-07-2024]
21) Running two Singletarget Brightwizards in an assist group, you can have BW1 apply Ignite dot with tactic Ignition, and then have BW2 use the ranged Knockdown without consuming the Ignite and the corp debuff that way.

22) Buffing your party with Tactics which improve Flames of Rhuin party buff, such as Crown of Fire. Buffs dont overwrite currently so removing the buffs with Rightclick on your buffbar before reapplying them will refresh the timers.
