Aura Mastery in Frostmourne Room

[Firecrest]

I've never considered improved concentration aura a PvE talent or really found the aura ever useful except on shit like Malygos' vortex, I believe it was arcane mages (most likely Extracrispy) that demanded Alyse spec and use conc aura. I'm not sure who needs conc aura but I'd guess staying in shadow resist and saving the GCDs for AM is more beneficial than using conc aura, especially in the Frostmourne room since most casts are instant so there isn't much use for conc aura.

I think last time we talked about dropping it, Twig said he needed it. Something about being able to put points somewhere else. I don't exactly recall though. I know if I could drop points out of Spiritual Focus because I always had an Imp Conc, I'd be all over that. Being a first tier tallent though, my only option is Seals of the Pure.

In any event, that's not really the point. If the problem is that we're taking absurd amounts of damage in Frostmourn Phase, the solution is to avoid the avoidable damage - not AM rotations.

Abe at one point said "Just look out for yourself." While it's true you shouldn't just stand there and get hit by a bomb because you were trying to stay with the group there are a few reasons we stack.

Obviously stacking for heals in the few seconds or so casts can get off is win.But mroe importantly, the bombs in that room spawn over locations where a player already is. If we stack and move in a circle around the room, the direction we're running towards always, always, always is absolutly clear of bombs. If we stand in a spot, allow two bombs to spawn over us, then move about 10 yards, the entire group can go without being hit. View wise, It's annoying as fuck for everyone that isn't a stupid keyboard turner. The solution to that is to always face the outside edge, and position your camara so that it is somewhat at your characters level. Since you're along the edge, you know that the only bombs that trouble you are out there, and you can see exaclty how far those are from hitting the ground. After that it's just strafe strafe strafe, pop out, pray defile isn't on an idiot, and win.

Edit: Bombs spawn on spirits as well so yes you can still get cornered the entire group just needs to recognize and adjust.
