Source scope · 核对范围 · 출처 범위 (2026-10-28): Exact patch dates, talent values, timers and scores attributed to azerothsurvivors.app are single-source community claims. v0.120.5 appears in that log; wowsurvivors.com still lists v0.120.4. These are not independently measured client or archive versions. Source policy.

Evidence scope

The exact talent percentages, gear values and five-axis scores below are attributed to azerothsurvivors.app alone. They are single-source figures, not independently confirmed live-game measurements. The second written guide and the linked video support only the routes explicitly attributed to them. Checked 28 October 2026.

Main route

Ignite adds 80% of a Fire critical as damage over 4 seconds. Hot Streak turns every fourth Fire critical into a free Pyroblast, at most twice a second. Pyroclasm opens on Pyroblast and makes a Fire kill explode for 6 yards, at most three times a second.

Pyroclasm wants packs. On a single boss the chain has less to chew on. That limit is in the research notes, not a personal clear time.

Scores and gear

togame ranks Mage A for screen clear. The survival score of 2 is the counterweight. Letters are on the tier-list page.

Index examples: Frostfire Robes (+77 HP, +6% damage reduction, −4% cooldown, 4% double) and Frostfire Bindings (−8% cooldown, +7% damage, +4% move speed).

The other route

Arcane uses Arcane Missiles, Arcane Explosion, and Ice Barrier. wowsurvivors records a 41 Arcane / 10 Frost case. A second video, iX4wBxCaiBk (21 October 2026), is the Arcane camera.

What I checked

I labeled the embedded video as Fire. The Arcane point split stays in the last section so a viewer does not treat Flamestrike footage as proof of the missile build.

No. The five numbers are editorial scores from azerothsurvivors.app on 23 October 2026.
