INTRODUCTION version 1.2
This spreadsheet is a simple one, designed only to give damage-per-mana figures for the three possible nuke
cycles in The Burning Crusade. These are spamming Shadow Bolts, spamming Searing Pain, and two sorts
of Incimmolate cycles. An Incimmolate cycle takes advantage of the bonus damage that Incinerate gets when
cast on a mob which is under the effect of an Immolation Damage over Time. The first sort of cycle attempts
to optimise damage per second, by casting Immolate, five Incinerates, and one Conflagrate. The second sort
of cycle optimises efficiency, with one Immolate and then six Incinerates. It also gives damage-per-second.
Instructions
Go to the "Calculator" sheet. Input your statistics in the boxes marked
Then pick your talent levels from the talents at the lower end of the page. When you are done, the Damage-
per-Mana efficiency of the nuking options will display in the top right of the Calculator.
