I really dont understand this? From what your saying, you will max fire mastery before you max fire bolt

Lets assume a lvl 99 es fb sorc ( with precast so 5 in energy shield ) with standard build ( so +28 skills i believe ) and 1 pt warmth

at level 99 you'll end up with 20040-21600 dmg with your method i believe ( you can double check this )

however with maxing fire mastery last and putting more in synergies first you get 20423-22013 dmg which is clearly better...

I hope I've misunderstood something tho, as it looks like you've put a lot of effort into this so wouldn't want it to be wrong, but also dont wanna give players wrong info  ;)

Edit: Looking through the posts again, I get the feeling that it wasnt really meant for a pvp es fb, but for pvm - so the less + skills you have the more your method works, i.e. assuming 0 + skills maxing mastery before synergies is indeed better. But as you get more + skills the effect of putting points in mastery diminishes as opposed to synergies ( as synergies aren't affected by + skills ) and with a higher +% dmg from mastery already the next 7 % will add less of a percentage gain naturally...



i believe the most important thing to take from this thread, and im not going through all those #s on no sleep to confirm it for what you're saying, is this:

So pretty much you need your firebolt + meteor to be 11 points higher than your fire mastery.




also, for the lld fire sorc, thats not really correct. you skill TK, Tele, Warmth, Fire Mastery, Max FB, put the rest into bolt. losing the synergy points to get to meteor is useless

Fireball:another very OP skill with a lot of damach, splash and range, but sucessfully countered by Blizzard with Dwarf Stars and Hotspurs
