UsingTier 14 Staff 1.3 Speed for Burn DOT & Rune damage.

Start with Minor Fire Rune (*not* Major), for Burn, followed by
---Fire Blast 3 (double damage with Burn, or 240% Staff Attack Damage Per Second, chance to increase Minor Fire Rune Burn 20% Stack 1 to Burn 20% Stack 2, +45% Fire Crit Power),
---Incinerate 3 ( 160% Staff Attack Damage Per Second, chance to increase Burn 20% Stack, +45% Fire Crit Power),
---Frozen Shard 3 ( 169%+ 13% Staff Attack Damage Per Second, Chill 15%+ 5% Haste & Dodge Debuff).

Burn 20% Stack 3= 60% Base Weapon Damage Per Second (not effected by Haste, so not Staff Attack Damage per Second), +20% Fire Crit, +45% Fire Crit Power.

During combat, if Burn fails to refresh with 1/4 duration left, use Minor Fire Rune to refresh. If Runes are done cooling down *and* Burn just refreshed, use Minor or Major Spirit Rune.

I have Flaming Pyre 1 so I have a Fire Attack to refresh Burn, if Snap Cast procs & all other Class Attacks are in cool down. Also Snap Cast+ Flaming Pure 1 does more damage than Snap Cast+ Ice Storm 1.

Bug- if Boss Health low, use Minor Fire Rune, Minor/ Major Spirit Rune, Frozen Shard 3, Ice Lance 1 or Staff Attack to kill not Fire Blast 3 or Incinerate 3. Until fixed, Fire Attack+ Ignite 3 cannot proc on a killing blow, but Runes can.

Tweaked Contingency& Shekka War Mage advice, went from 3- 4 Bosses (54- 72 HS/ 450- 600 RPP) to consistent 7 Bosses (126 HS/ 1050 RPP) in Karnak.

VG/ Karnak WM Builds

personally I get +22 Magic Damage (+1,068 from +1,046) from Guild Favor with 5,678 points in Magic Stat. So Inner Focus 3 would only give my WM +33 Magic Damage or +0.9% with Staff & Incinerate 3. I would skip it on most VG ready characters.

Deep Freeze 1 not only reduces Opponent's Haste by another 5%, but also their Spell Dodge, increasing Damage from all attacks. I strongly recommend Deep Freeze 1 for any Spec with Frozen Shard 1- 3.

Unless you PvP with both Specs, Icy Grasp 1 or 2 is fine for Mobs & Icy Grasp 2 or 3 is fine for Bosses/ PvP. I would reduce Icy Grasp 3 to 1 or 2 for a Mob Spec. Time Void 1 or 2 is fine for Mobs & Time Void 2 or 3 is fine for Bosses/ PvP. I would reduce Time Void 3 to 1 or 2 for a Mob Spec.

All Ice Attacks get +15% while Opponent is Stunned by Icy Grasp. Ice Lance loses knock back while opponent stunned, it is also a slow attack. With Shard's fast casting time & cool down, Icy Grasp+ Frozen Shard or Icy Grasp+ Defend+ Frozen Shard is a much better bet Damage Per Second versus Bosses. Plus Shard still Debuffs their Haste & Spell Dodge 15%+ 5% (Deep Freeze) even while opponent is stunned. Personally I am having more luck with Contingency's idea of Ice Lance 1 for Boss/ PvP Spec.

Personally I like Snap Cast 1, but it's low proc rate makes it a personal decision.

For Karnak Raid Phase 2 & 3, Ice Shield 3 helps out because you are only facing a single opponent & Healing Potions could be in cool down. A Bug/ Feature that Venan left alone in v1.7.2 is DOT damage is reduced by Ice Shield, without removing Ice Shield, nice for Phase 2.

If you have it, use a Staff 1.3 Speed for maximum Burn & Rune Damage versus Bosses.

Everything else depends on Gems, Enchants & personal taste.

Mob Spec- Incinerate 3, Flaming Pyre 3, Frozen Shard 3, Ice Storm 3, Ignite 0, Fire Mastery 2, Ice Mastery 3, Fire Blast 0- 1, Volatility 0 are all good choices.

Boss Spec- Incinerate 3, Flaming Pyre 0 or 1, Frozen Shard 3, Ice Storm 0, Ignite 3, Fire Master 3, Ice Mastery 0- 3, Fire Blast 3, Volatility 2-3 are all good choices.
