When you pressed each button
The fight
Phase 1 · 0:00–3:36
Voidswarm opens portals that release a Venomous Hulk, Voidweavers and Bomber Beetles. Adds within 25 yards of Kith'ix take far less damage (
Commanding Presence), so they die away from the boss.
Extinguish hits the whole raid hard: grab a
Light's Embrace orb before it lands. On Heroic, the Hulk and Voidweavers drop eggs (Incubation). Each time Kith'ix reaches 100 energy the raid collapses into Liadrin's light for an intermission.
Phase 2 · 3:36–4:12
You pressed it 7 times; typical Arcane Mages 10. Likely why:
Arcane Missiles as often as top players. You pressed it 12.2 times a minute; top Arcane Mages 15.9.
At 25% health Kith'ix goes into Phase 2 and any adds still alive die. Everyone gets
Luminous Grace (50% more damage) and the raid has about a minute: each
Eightfold Eclipse hits the raid hard, and the eighth one wipes it.
Null Gates spawn under a melee, a ranged and a healer and fire
Nullshards that stack
Nullify, which kills at five stacks on Heroic.
Negation lands on a tank, who swaps and runs into a
Null Gate within 8 seconds to close the gates nearby.
Your DPS compared with the raid iDPS over the whole attempt, the way the raid's meter counts it, so it includes any time after you died.

Stats
Your stat mix fits your spec
Intellect 4,169, top Arcane Mages 3,634
What each stat is worth to you now
Your stat values are on their way.
Your mix fits your spec, where Haste comes first, then Crit, then Mastery. Haste speeds up your casts and lowers your global cooldown, but it also drains your mana faster if you lack Mastery. Your Crit (1,432) is past 1,380, where each extra point counts 10% less. When two items are close, lean toward Haste, then Crit.
Gear upgrades
Nothing to replace or upgrade; you wear the 2 most worn trinkets
Nothing to replace or upgrade: every slot is as high as its track goes, trinkets included.

What to work on
- Do
- Use a
Potion of Recklessness with your first big cooldowns on every attempt. They cost about 10 gold. - Why
- Your Kith'ix attempt of 2 minutes or more went without one, so it was missing its burst of damage.

Enchants and gems

Enchants
3 slots already match: Chest, Legs and Ring
Gems
You're lightest on Haste, your spec's best stat. Haste speeds up your casts and lowers your global cooldown, but it also drains your mana faster if you lack Mastery. The gem also has Mastery, your spec's third-best stat. Mastery (Savant) raises your max mana and mana regeneration and adds damage to your Arcane spells, including your Arcane Charge damage bonus. Gems that are mostly Haste help close that gap.
