Granted increased reuse is nice...and an extra tick on tempest is nice....But i like the faster casting of TC vs UT. UT was made for Warlocks and Illys. Our dps is not "dot" heavy. I would keep TC since a "dot heavy" class would better benefit from UT while us slow casting wizards better benefit from TC....but like I said...if you are close to casting speed max....and TC puts you over the cap...then go with UT.

Most of my spells are max haste with AAs, plus about half of our damage spells are DoTs, so UT is awesome for a conjy. I do like the 40% recovery from TC though, if they would give UT 40% recovery I'd kill the Illy just so I could have it.

Don't see why you'd ever give the Illusionist UT over a Conjuror unless the Conjuror was the only mage in the group then he'd have TC as it was.

Default Re: Rays when should they be used

My group setup is usually Conjy, Illy, Wizard, Troub, Fury/Warden, Some Scout.

Myself and the illy are the top parsers by far in the guild, so its ether give me UT and give the wizard TC who parses about 3k lower than myself or the illy, or give me TC and give the illy UT which is the best setup for the raid.

Back to the topic at hand, why do Illys love RoD? seems like it would interupt Perp, and screw up the casting order

Because they cast it super fast and it's a huge nuke for them, and it only brings perp down to IV, and even if it breaks it one FoB or Illuminate will bring it up to 5 again.

Ah that explains it, I was under the impression that if perp 5 broke you had to start over at one, but if it only knocks it down to 4 or even 3 then I can see why this would be a nice spell for an illy. Plus the second and a half it would take the illy to cast this spell would seem like a 15 minute coffee break to them.
