    Now, I just came back this week to the game again so I dunno if anything has changed.
    But from what I remember it's Freeze - Sharpcast - Thunder IV - F3 - Double Flare and then repeat ( with Manafont and insta casts for faster casts and triple Flare etc ).
    And you should ofc weave Sharpcast.

    With your opener, assuming manafont is off CD and you have an ether on your bar that at least restores 800 mp you can squeeze out 4 flares before going into the standard. Just use Swiftcast and Triple cast appropriately and watch those mobs go down to half health almost instantly.

    Okay I know it's Freeze spam from 35 to 50 and I know the AoE rotation from 68 and beyond. But what is the actual AoE rotation from 50 (when you get Flare) until 68 (when you can double Flare)?

    Fire 2 loses out against Freeze in damage because of the transition between Umbral Ice and Astral Fire, Fire 2 itself does more damage than Freeze. Since I have to change to Astral Fire anyway for Flare is it worth using Fire 2?
    What is the correct AoE rotation from 50 to 68?

    Freeze > Thunder 2 / 4 > Fire 3 > Fire 2 > Fire 2 > Fire 2 > Flare

    or

    Freeze > Thunder 2 / 4 > Fire 3 > Flare

    Or is it Freeze Spam and I only change to Astral Fire when Manafont is up so I can double Flare?
