When it procs, there is only a 4 second time from for you to cast your spell, then the effect wears off.

I have in my gear one Purple gem ("Matches a Blue or Red socket.") and all the others are Red gems ("Matches a Red socket."). When I socketed this meta gem, the requirement text was grey, which would mean it doesn't work. When I changed zone (took portal to IF), however, it turned to white. It's only a display bug.
In other words, this gem will work if you have in your gear at least one more gem that matches a Blue socket (it can match other sockets too) than gems that match a Yellow socket (which also can match other sockets).

It deffenetly works on heals. Free instant cast heal when this procs and holy consentration on my priest not too bad but the 3 second effect is kind of lousy for a priest. Normally no one is going to need a heal within 3 seconds of my last heal. I think they should up it to 15 like the netherwind set bonus considering the cost of this gem.

Can someone please tell me what happens if I try to use green gems in yellow slots? How will they count towards this meta gem? Will they cancel each other out?
Only solution for me now is to use purple gems in red slots.

After Patch 2.0.10 desc says
Mystical Skyfire Diamond
5% on spellcast - next spell cast in half time
Requires more Blue gems than Yellow gems
"Only fits in a meta gem slot."
They ruined the best Meta soket and accualy the only good one for locks... We don't have many instants as mages, and restore mana on spellcast with dark pact means nothing... we can lifetap...
1% Reflect? ... that is only 1%... useless...
if that half time casting would be for a period of time it would be worth something...

Its not useless. With the instant version it was hard to "catch" if was spamming scorch because it would proc by the time i started the next cast of scorch. It wouldnt boost my DPS any because the cast time and the global cool down is the same. So instead of waiting the 1.5 durning the cast i waited for the global cool down.
Now with the 50% cast time, i can have a better chance to "catch" the buff and cast something else like a 1.5 fireball or 3sec pyroblast. Both will actually increase by DPS. So if the cast for scorch starts i have .75 secs to stopcasting and cast something else. So now I when i see it proc i hit my marco that is something like.
/stopspellcast
/cast pyro
However for mages who spam frost bolt or fireball it will nerf dps slightly.

The buff will not be used up on instant cast spells unless they are made instant due to a buff or talent (ie. improved corruption, nightfall proc).
This effect can stack multiple times if it procs off of a natural instant cast spell while you already have an effect. I've only had this happen once but I believe that the second buff was NOT taken when I cast a spell, so you should be able to get off two half cast time spells.
You will have to wait out the global cooldown if the cast time is brought below 1.5 second cast.
Haste effects like the proc off of Quagmirran's Eye (
https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=27683
) will stack with this and appear to halve the already lowered cast time. I believe it brought my shadowbolt down to ~1 sec cast time.

This would be a really good meta socket gem to use, but imo the requirement is a little harsh. As a warlock, my items are filled with red and orange (red+yellow) gems and have only one blue gem. I'd need to replace most of my sockets with Radiant Talasites (
https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=24066
) and Glowing Nightseyes (
https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=24056
), but I'd loose a lot of spell crit and spelldamage. I think Blizzard should change the requirement to something more appealing.

It's still extremely good in PvP. 5% chance means it will proc around once a fight.
From a mage's perspective, a 1.25 frostbolt is amazing. If you're fire, you know how crazy a 1.5 fireball would be.
It's not as crazy as it was, but It's a toss-up between this and 18 stam 5% stun resist for PvP. The stam is probably better for arena, but I'd take the skyfire for everything else.

So, for this gem to work am I required to have any yellow gems socketted at all?
Right now I have only one piece of socketed gear, which is a headpiece. The other gem socket in it is red. So I could put a purple gem in it and have one blue gem toward the requirement, but no other gems. 1 is greater than 0, right? Or is at least one yellow gem required for it to work?

Raiding mages really need to work towards maximizing their +spell hit to 164 spell hit rating, in order to not miss any more than the minimum of 1% on lvl 73(??) bosses. Therefore the Veiled Noble Topaz(red+yellow) and the Great Dawnstone(yellow) are king until you are able to max out. I have 7 yellow or yellow/red gems and only one blue on my engineering helm. If you look at any sort of calculator for determining what increases your dps as a mage the most, you will see that this is true. Therefore, we have to sacrifice way too much on current gear to be able to equip this. Maybe in the future we will be able to get our hands on more gear with innate +spell hit on it, however, to date this is not the case.

there are 2 choices for socketing arena items as a paladin:
1. go for +18heal gems (red) all over the place, since you will rarely get focused first with a high arena rating and you will be able to heal in raids better than with choice 2
2. go for +12 stamina (blue) all over the place, if you don't raid at all or feel like beeing the main target all the time ;)
other things to think about:
choice 1 will leave you with many red sockets making it hard to choose anythig else than
https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=25897
wich has even more heal, but -2% thread wich you won't really need as a holy paladin -.-
the good thing on this gem for a pala is the HPS when it procs you can heal like crazy even with holy light as a ONE SECOND cast and flash of light beeing 0.75 second cast, almost instant
of course you won't be able to spam it because of the global cooldown, however HL will still be down to 1.5sec (1sec cast time + 0.5 sec remaining global cooldown) wich is still -0.5sec less casting time
along with the scarab trinket from hdz2 this is a really insane possible HPS and that's what counts most if you heal a focus target in a 5on5 match, imho
and since in both pve and raids you will spam either flash of light or holy light or a combination of both all the time anyway this is not only a dps caster meta gem in my eyes ;)

This gem used to be a 2% chance for an instacast spell, like PoM.
This gem was used in the movie Sorrow Hill 9; an elementalist mage was able to pull off some incredible stuff even without the gem's proc.
I saw the movie, and was hoping to get the gem... it's been nerfed quite a bit it seems but it's not completely useless.

Trillien - Healing (Priest)
xetroV - Machine Gun Mage
The meta gem can be seen procing twice in the video. Once per boss.
Boss one.
Opens with Pyroblast 6 second cast.
Meta procs
9 arcane missles in the next 4.5 seconds (arc missles takes 5 seconds to cast without the meta gem and only drops 5 missles in 5 seconds)
Boss 2
Opens with arc missles
Gets Clearcasting (nice crits)
Gets Clearcasting again this time with the metagem
9 more arcane missles in 4.5 seconds.
Ends with a 6255 Pyroblast to kill the boss.
(Note sure if its You tube or my compliation but the sound seems to skip a couple times .. sorry if it was caused by me)

Drain Life won't consume the proc buff, but it benefits from it!
That means, if the gem procs, you have enough time to cast for example a 2.5sec Drain Life and a 2sec Soul Fire. Or just two 2.5sec Drain Life's. Or maybe a 2.5sec Drain Life and a 7.5sec Drain Soul.
But ssshhh... don't tell it the dev's ! ;-p
I've testet it with more than 10 proc's it always worked!

The
best
meta for a Shadow Priest. I socketed my Tier 5 Helmet with it.
The beautiful thing about this meta-gem is that it doesnt consume channeled spells, i.e you can fit a maximum of 3 mind flays in 5 seconds. If you time it right and Flay 3 times at 50% the speed you can achieve about 2,000 Mind Flay DPS -- fitting all 3 MFs in is about 80 effective spell damage according to
www.shadowpriest.com
. Even if you only fit in 2 Flay it's still 50 or so spell damage.
In the 2.2 patch notes the "Focus" buff will be extended to 10 seconds, and will not consume channeled spells (unless they stealth nerf it).
http://www.wow-europe.com/en/info/underdev/testrealm.html
I think it's pretty evident just how powerful it is to have a "personal" heroism ;D I've procced it back to back 4 times on Lady Vashj. Oh,and it stacks with Heroism.
I love this gem.

This is my personal choice for PvP gem as a 0/30/31 Mage, sometimes 17/0/44 too depending on mood anyway. Reasons why I like it over stamina & stun resistance here:
1) Proc is very imba for my current spec. If it procs on Frost Nova I can launch a 3Sec pyro + Ice lance which mostly both crit. High burst, which is great for arenas. :)
2) Proc makes Arcane Missiles cast in 2,5sec, you ever hated catching those pole lamers? Nothing funnier than a shitload of damage in 2,5sec and he cant use LoS to avoid it. And when you have shatter, it's about 4000 Dmg (with 750 spelldmg) on a frozen target if all crit.. _in 2,5sec_. Unload your instants on top of that and *flex*
3) 0.75sec sheep, has saved people getting that MS from the warrior I'm supposed to keep CC'd. :)
List could go on longer but I think you're catching the drift, sometimes when you need that extra little kick for something and the meta procs, its good time.
And for me, it's normally from 0 to up to 5 procs in a normal length 3on3 / 5on5 arena matches.

For mages who need to be hit capped, this is not an option seeing as you'll need to socket a fair share of yellow/orange gems. Until you start stacking spell hit on your gear, you'll need to look elsewhere for a metagem.

I have this meta in my Moonkin's
https://www.cuckhead.com/wotlk/item=32480
and it is pretty awesome. Like posted above it procs off buffs and instant casts, and I think it proc'd earlier when I shifted out of moonkin. The only downside is sometimes I miss the fact that I have the buff.
The coolest thing about this gem is that it stacks with the Nature's Grace talent. Depending on luck and the order they proc, a 1.25s star fire and a .5 second Wrath is pretty awesome. If you have reduced HT cast time you can get a 1 second HT.
HT/Starfire- 3sec->meta proc->1.5sec->natures grace-> 1sec
Wrath- 2sec->meta proc->1sec-> NG -> .5sec
While grinding its more likely to get NG to proc then the Meta, but if you have a decent amount of mana regen and little down time you will end up really increasing your dmg output and reduce the time to grind. I also look forward to trying this out in my 5man arena team, where I am lucky enough to be able to stay in moonkin and not worry about healing others.
I raid as a tank and do not have much experience as a moonkin in raids, but in 5 mans even with reduced threat talents I pull off the avg pug tank, with this new toy, I assume I will be taking a few more hits. I and other crit monkeys out there with this will need to be more careful, or let the 4 sec buff that it provides pass more often, although someone up above says they will be increasing the buff to 10secs. Take a competent tank or have another lid to switch out with this one if you have a problem pulling aggro bc of a high crit chance.

I have this stuck in my Justicar Helm and I must say I'm almost 100% satisfied with this over the +26 healing or the 2% chance for +300 mana gem. Paired with
Scarab of the Infinite Cycle
I can get my Flash of Light spell to fire off at .5 seconds or so and my Holy Lights down to about 1 second (assuming they both proc).
It's perfect for Flash of Light spamming, and best of all if you're in mostly Kara gear (and this could be the same with TK/SSC as well) then it won't require you to break your nice socket bonuses like some of the other pure healer meta gems.

For some reasons bliz loves melee, and isnt too keen on trying new things with casters. All of the unique enchants and gems seem to be on the melee side of things, and now looking back it appears that this was always the case. This gem is the only meta option for dps casters, and as demonstrated in the above posts it sucks and is in no way the automatic choice like relentless earthstorm is for melee.
PreBC crusader was king, and casters were forced to using basic and lackluster weapon enchants, 30 damage, or 22 int.
Now virtually every melee goon with a decent weapon is running around with mongoose, yet we have 40 spellpower or soulfrost which is just repackaged 30 damage.
This gem is just the latest in a long line of crap that casters are forced to eat. I would love to see a reduce threat meta gem that stacks with subtlety and has innate spell damage, then give us easy requirements to meet like relentless earthstorm. We will probably see that when they get around to giving us a spell haste+spell damage proc from a weapon enchant.

" It's an intended change, it was ultimately a correction in an original oversight that the gem didn't have a cooldown associated with its effect. The chance has been increased though, so when the cooldown is up it's more likely to proc sooner, but in the end it's an intended nerf."

I prefer to see this as a healer's choice, who generally has 3+ seconds requiring spells to cast. For any caster dps, besides fire mages (pyro when it procs:), since your usual -not instant- damage spell has less than 3 second casting time, this gem's proc should bring out the gcd problem. I haven't tested it myself yet (I didn't want to spend that much gold to see what happens:) but I wonder if this one also shortens the effect of gcd just as bloodlust does..? That would make a huge difference of course.

Ok, as of this comment, evocation IS affected by this gem: It casts in half the time, same benefits-the ticks just happen faster.
One thing to all these number crunchers out there.
This Gem is totally F***ing fun. I mean really. Of course I am a deep fire mage for raid dps, but i love this thing in pvp also. Getting off a short pyro or maybe a 1.5 fireball is awesome. Its rad. It gets me all excited, like clearcasting does. And I have had this, power of aracnos, (from a kara robe) clearcasting, and spell haste procs all pop at the same time. When you have spell haste gear this thing really gets even cooler. Look, most people playing this game hardcore forget some basic things.
Its a game, and this gem makes the game more fun. Its great in boss fights in 5-25 mans, gets you a pyro in your spell spam rotation, oh and arcane missiles is like a machine gun. Blizzard for ice spec is affected by this, flamestrike is even more an option, even tho that spell is overlooked by many fire mages. for those new 70's arcanist gear and this make flamestrike get off really fast, and thats cool for aoe grinding fire style. Thats all from a mage perspective of course, but this was one of the funnest/coolest things I have found in the game. Just wanted to make sure that aspect wasn't forgotten.
The proc is slightly predictable also, if you haven't cast in a minute, pretty much gonna proc often right after first cast.
Anyways,
this is a really fun gem, gonna be hard to give up, but with spellfire gear and battlecast stuff, it fits in. Ill lose a little +4 anything to keep this in, so socket bonus loss is negligible. anyways im a JC/tailor so resocketing costs me less. Just clarifying my bias- not bragging. Also, for JC's, if you have an alt who is an alchemist, you can make skyfires for pretty much just primals, as you'll have a pantload of lesser gems, and if you've learned how to farm, getting 5 primals of any kind in a couple of hours isn't hard. I make skyfires every cooldown, cut into MSDs, sell em for 250+. Clockwork money maker recipe with an alch alt.

On the 2.4 PTR this Diamond has changed to grant 320 Haste Rating instead of a flat -50% casttime.
320 roughly translates into 20% haste.

Recent "fake patch notes" were implying that the gem had been changed from:
"Chance to reduce the cast time of your next spell by 50%" into
"Chance to reduce the cast time of your next spell by 20%"
For some reason they just changed the tooltip of this gem, which makes me believe that these "fake patch notes" might actually hold some truth to it.

this also affects enchanting speed. so if you're creating a rod for example, make this proc first so you don't have to wait a minute until the rod is created :)
this is also good for warlocks and paladins when you have to get on your mount super fast (if you have this procc'ed from buffs or something)
last i checked it also affects hearth speed.

As of Patch 2.4, the meta gem has either been changed and it is undocumented.
Then the Focus buff procs, it does not disappear after the initial cast, but rather stays on for other casts after the latter. The buff was been reduced to 4 seconds long and the cast time is no longer cut in half but now grants 320 haste for 4 seconds with a 45 second internal cooldown. The meta gems
does
stack with other haste procs such as Scarab of the Infinite Cycle.
Haven't really decided if this is a buff or nerf (based on personal opinion of course). I'll look more into it.

I predict in 2 more patches having the mystic skyfire gem will actually increase casting time and perhaps debuff you with mortal strike. This poor thing has been nerfed and nerfed and nerfed again.
Reduced the bonus to 17.8% speed on a 3 second buff (sorely hampering utility to arcane mages) that procs once every half minute for an overall damage increase of slightly below 2% IF you're in the best case scenario (Continuous damage dealing, not healing, not soloing). Blizzard has indeed $%^&ed in your coffee.

I AM SO BITTER ABOUT THIS &*^%%ING NERF!!!!!
I am a raid dps fire mage, this gem is useless now. Arcane missiles, a quick pyro in my fireball chain cast, this used to be my single most favorite gem in the game. now its crap. I am keeping the gear, in the hope that they revert to pre 2.4 status. I suspect they wanted to make this a better gem for chain healers who use the 1.5 sec casts. Maybe now with spell haste supposedly affecting GCD this will be better for instant cast spammers like aff locks allowing their PVP macros to be even faster to apply. Basically I see this as taking everyone who WAS using this gem and ruining it so that other classes who wouldn't of used it before or at least as much would use it more. I am SO disappointed in this change, I hope that everyone who had it posts on the wow forums about their discontent. Or is it just me?
I dunno, this was so crappy to log on to. The first time I tried to machine gun arcane missiles while grinding fire elementals I thought it was bugged, I could barely tell the proc was working. This used to be such a fun Gem. Sigh.

if you ask me, not exactly, just a 20% cast time reduction (or 320 haste, to keep it in line with 70+ lvling etc) and some mana reduction.
make it work like a charge, internal cooldown that doesnt start untill the charge wears off, with 1 charge only.
simple, effective, would make for happy casters, even if only for 1 spell instead of 4 seconds (which might be wasted, making it useless).

I did some spell haste calculations. I can get ~100 spell haste with items alone (Guardian's Ring of Subjugation, Vindicator's Ring of Subjugation, Cloak of Arcane Alacrity, Guardian's Pendant of Subjugation), then another ~30 with gems. This means a total of ~130 spell haste (i think its 134). coupled with season 3 / 4 pieces, my crit will be fine and I'll be machinegunning frostbolts with icy veins + heroic sp trinket + meta gem (each grants 320 spell haste).
The total spell haste I'll have with all my gear and if all procs happen simultaneously is ~774, which will give me a 1.67s frostbolt and a 1s poly. Then, popping IV (now total 1094 spell haste) will give me around a ~1.47 second frostbolt, and a .8s poly.

Question :
I want to use this gem along with Quagmirran's Eye. Through the ages, the gem has been buffed, nerfed, rebalanced and so on.
Right now, would the proc of this gem stack with Quagmirran's Eye and Icy Veins?

Okay, so I think it is time to give a little history on this device and it's application for mage PvP. Back in the day, as we all know, pushback on spellcasts had no cap and was very irritating for casters. Back then, a powerful application of this gem was in conjunction with Arcane Missiles. Why use this expensive and relatively low damage ability with your beefy haste proc? Because you could achieve 5 pushbacks in a 2.5 second cast. It would literally take out a cast while dealing damage and looking awesome at the same time. It was the TBC version of Missile Barrage. Sadly the days of heavy pushback are gone, and this gem turns into a sporadic DPS buff, but any mage who PvPed back in the time of this method will always have the fond memories of knocking a shadow bolt back 5 times while dealing 2k damage with style.

Malcora can make this on Vek'nilash, if you are looking for one.

The number of gems you have is tallied by counting what the gem you have socketed says.
If a gem you put in a red socket says "Fits in a red or yellow socket" for example, count that as having a red
AAAAND
a yellow gem.
NOT the socket color.
Also, when you are viewing a meta gem, the requirements you have met are in white font and not in gray font. So you will know right away if you meet the gems requirements.
I hope this clears up some confusion on what meta gems do...i know i was confused for a long time.

I'll make it clearer:
To use this gem you must have more blue than yellow gems on your gear, not helm.
In addition for this diamond 1 orange gem counts as 1 yellow, 1 purple as 1 blue, and 1 green as 1 yellow and 1 blue.
The perfect gems for your gear with this diamond are glowing nightseyes since they fit red and blue sockets and give nice stats. the price varies around 50 - 60 gold.

After getting this for my Mana-Etched Crown, I decided to test it out. It procs off any kind of successfully cast spells, be it healing, damaging, or buffing spells, for my Underwater Breathing spell proc'd it many times. After using the proc for Soulfire, Summon Imp, Ritual of Souls (Soul Well), and finally the Hearthstone, my guess is that the proc works on any kind of spells too (that's right, instant hearthing).
Oh, the proc's name is <Focus>, and it lasts for 4 seconds.

I love this gem on my shaman. I put it in my pvp helm for arenas, and the blue req is no problem since blue has the stamina gems which every arena person should use. It procs off EVERYTHING. I drop a totem it procs, I purge someone it procs, heals shocks everything. It's really useful in the arena because I have to purge a lot to get things like blessing of protection and sometimes I can get a heal out of it.

Ok, just had the problem of using this and not being able to get it working ..
after playing around, what the gem count actually does is count each variation.
not the socket colour or the actual gem colour, but each instance of each either/or gem also .
eg
3 gems that fit either blue or yellow
= 3 of each .
no matter what colour the gem or the socket is it counts each colour that gem can fit into..of every gem you have in use .
I thought maybe it went via the actual socket colour, but I had more blue than yellow so wasnt that, then moved things around all over the place to figure out thats how it works . Still unsure/cautious when using my last yellow slot in my spellcloth gloves tho, but I put a blue/yellow gem in there and it still works , so this is definitely right . as by my calculations that puts me up from 5 4 b/y to 6/4 . and it still works :) (thankgod, or I would have had to unequip my boots just so I could get my meta gem working..)

This gem procs off of just about anything, and also works on just about anything.
It can both proc off of and effect herbalism (possibly all gathering skills) and hearthstones. It also cuts in half the time that I channel Life Drain. I haven't tested other channeled spells yet, but I get all five ticks of Life Drain in 2.5 seconds.
The only thing I really notice is that it seems to work more when I'm not specifically aiming for it. I go casting SB and Incinerate, and two or three in a row might proc it, while I then spam Underwater Breathing about 30 times and get nothing.
By the way, .25 second demon summons are fun.
EDIT: Just to update, this works on all channeled spells. For a lock, that would be all drain spells, health funnel, even rain of fire and hellfire. Double-timed hellfire is just sick.

This gem says that it requires "More blue than yellow" gems... does that mean it should work with 2 blues and 1 yellow or do I need at least 5 blues and some yellow?

Freaking Blizzard!
The gem now only increases haste rating - and the buff only lasts 3 seconds.
I can't even SEE how much haste rating it gives because by the time I move my mouse up there the buff is gone.
-edit] It increased by 320 haste. Which, yes - is a HELL OF A LOT LESS than half the cast time. I can say with certainty that I did not notice ANY difference in cast time at all on a frostbolt. That takes a 2.5 second frostbolt and makes it 2.1 sec. What a serious waste of a meta socket!
Don't waste your gold on this waste of a meta socket now. With global cooldowns, you'll be REALLY LUCKY if you are even able to START a cast before the damn thing is gone. Boo Blizzard, for ruining this gem - Blizzard has been changing this thing over and over - what a joke and a sign of some real lack of leadership at Blizzard.

Does "requires more blue gems than yellow gems" mean that it will work with 1 blue gem and 0 yellow? Or do I need at least 1 yellow and 2 or more blue?

In the new patch, blizzard nerfed this one.
The procc only makes the spell cast 50% faster.
(Well, they did improve the proc rate to 5%, but still a nerf imo). >_>
Most people won't even pay more than what the skyfire diamonds cost for me to buy.

Is there a macro to say not cast scorch if the PoM procs and to cast Pyro? If not, I'd probably just get the +14crit rating and 1%reflect meta gem.
Thanks

i am still confused on the requirements maybe because theya re so vague..
the item you are socketing into has to have more yellow then blue sockets or you amongst all your equipment have to have more blue gems than yellow gems
and if it is the latter what signifies a blue gem if a particular gem fits in both blue or yellow slots?
WTF!

For all of you out there who wonder if this is worth it. The gem procs off of any cast...it will proc off of a buff, conjuring, casting, instant casts, anything that is a spell cast no matter what it is...the only downside is that you never know when its coming..its actually only three seconds...so you have to be quick to use it or no deal. I paid 190g for it off the auction house and will buy another one or two when the time comes for me to upgrade my helm...I love it...in raids its an extra 1300 frostbolt or 2600 crit...or if my trinket procs....1550 bolt and 3100 crit...and if I catch my trinket proc...activate my other one...and then it happens...the bolts hit for 1600 at least...so you can imagine why I love it. I could care less to reflect a spell from a boss who will end up immune to it anyway...and as far as pvp...I have almost 8k life and 700 ish damage...reflecting your spell is the least of your worries. I would love if the effect lasted longer and if you could stack them..but you can't and it doesn't...and I still love it.

As of right now my gem is still giving me the instant cast...I will be considering changing it if blizz does change the effect...in raids having cast time cut in half isn't the most appealing thing ever. I love it the way it is...I was 61 points fire for a while and having to proc giving me another 2300 pyro hit was nice....then sometimes it procs twice and can do so off of itself...I have had it proc three times in a row once in a month...so nice. But anyway though as I was saying...as of today it is still an instant spell...and will cast off of any spell cast no matter what it is (at least for my mage)...if they change it then its !@#$ed up...but if not its one of the sweetest metas out there...

roughly speaking, for fireball spam
you will get 1 proc per 20
20 fireball takes 60 sec
with one proc it takes 58.5 sec
that is 1.5/60 =
2.5 % in dps
that is around 2.5 % crit = 60 crit rating
or 40 to 50 spell dmg depends on spec
u can have a feeling whether u want to replace the whole set of gem for it
but same as wizardry and eye, increase in cast speed doesnt increase dpm

(Goes and checks Test server data for sockets on Mage and Warlock Tier 4 and Tier 5 in 2.1 and up)
Mage Tier 4: 1 Meta, 1 Red, 2 Yellow, 3 Blue
Mage Tier 5: 1 Meta, 5 Yellow, 2 Blue
Warlock Tier 4: 1 Meta, 2 Red, 3 Yellow, 1 Blue
Warlock Tier 5: 1 Meta, 6 Yellow, 1 Blue
Now what I'm wondering. Apparently this gem requirement is completely out of matching typical sockets casters get in end-game. Is it even worth mismatching so many yellow sockets on Tier 5 for example to get this proc?
Now think about description in terms of stats: Requires more Stamina and Penetration gems than Spell Hit and Spell Crit gems. In the current state matching yellow is better, even though people generally seem to agree that sticking red Spell Damage gems is best for your DPS regardless of socket colors and bonuses for matching them.
As worth adding more blue gems than yellow gems is a possible and likely setup for Arena, but on the other hand half casting time is not even close to being as good as instant if we are talking Arena, and for PVE in next patch people will stick Spell Hit gems in their yellow sockets because it beats everything else for boss fights (so no more mass spell damage).

The gem proc is awesome, but the requirement sucks for mages, whose best gears consist of mostly red and yellow gems. This might work well for warlocks, who wants more stam (blue gems).

being nerfed in 2.3, test realm tooltip says chance on spellcast instead of current 5% chance?
can anyone confirm?

They are adding an internal cooldown, but the change to the tooltip is due to the fact that they are supposedly increasing it's proc rate as well(when not on cooldown, of course).

Does nobody speak about healing? This has to be better than Insightful or Bracing. Or does it?
All priests know that Greater Heal is most effecient, and if i can cast in half the time then the tank survives longer. Plus +26 healing and -2% threat (bracing skyfire) doesn't seem to be that big of a deal at this point in my raiding.
I can take a potion and get higher +heals than Bracing Skyfire Diamond (cheaper too).
Just wanted to ask if other prists have used this, and find out what they thought.
Oh and another thing -- i know that the math is out there somewhere that shows the ammount of +heal that is gained based on spellcast. Does this half cast time Nerf my +heal? cause there is a vast difference in the percent gained by a 3 sec cast and one gained by a 1.5 sec cast. So the question is does this buff have an effect on the +spell dmg %?

Meta gems for casters
Chaotic Skyfire Diamond
Ok gem for crit based players.
Ive used this on my Elemental shaman as with just over 40%crit I think Frost mages are simmilar.
I worked out if its worth it like this:
on crit of 3000 , 3% of that is 90
so at 40% crit is the same as +36spell dmg
Would you use this gem if it was
12spell crit & +36spell dmg
Insightful Earthstorm Diamond
2% chance to get 300mana based on on 2secPerCast
12int & 15mp5
Mystical Skyfire Diamond
5% chance to cut the casting time of your next spell by half
so 2.5% of an extra attack
so on a 1500 normal attack 3000crit with 40% crit = 2100 ave =
+52.5 spell dmg(which uses mana)
Swift Starfire Diamond
+12 Spell Damage and Minor Run Speed Increase
stick this in a crappy hat you were going to vendor, and use it for running back faster than everyone else after you wipe typing /train /train, no other good uses for it
I count spell crit to be worth 50% more than spell dmg so
Chaotic Skyfire Diamond
12spell crit & +36spell dmg = 54 which is 1.5 more than
Mystical Skyfire Diamond
and costs no extra mana

评论来自

Shame it's gonna be nerfed... However enjoy it while you still can! This is firstly a very good arena healer gem. Good proc rate. Secondly its procs by blessings and also when you mount up (only works for paladins since their summonable mount is a spell) Enjoy 0,7 sec cast mount up when the "scarab" procs aswell ^_^

what does this thing look like when it procs? was watching a drakedog vid on youtube and i know he used to have this in hiw helm on armory. Does it look like a nightfall/backlash proc, but isntead is a brighter color with a more oval shape around the toon?
btw any confimartions on what (including values) is being nerfed in 2.4, or whether it is at all?

They nerfed this meta to almost nothing. Like the previous post about locks.... My Healadin got his Holy shock nerfed as well. A nearly unnoticable addition to the damage delt, ucompanied with a double in mana cost. Now i hate my crappy healer even more, and wasted 110g on a crap meta....thx bliz for ruining another one of my toons.
评论来自
Thottbot
WTF are you thinking bliz? I'm a lock and loved when this thing would proc in pvp, great time to hit drain life. but now....meh. I guess I need to find a new meta. I would consider sticking with this one if they increased the duration up from 3 sec. as it is now it's pretty much only usefull if it happens to proc while handing out instant cast dots.
also, does this mean that hunters will no longer be able to tame the spirit wolf in dustwallow? cuz that would totally be the suck
评论来自
Thottbot
I would like to confirm that this gem no longer has the immense strategic value it once had. Personally, I can barely notice any effect at all when it procs.
Before, I could use it to greatly help with healing. At least once per battle I could fire off a Greater Heal like a Flash Heal. Since I use Renew a lot, it effectively halved every fifth or so healing cast.
I think I will still post that the gem is bugged and that haste is being miscalculated - it really is nearly useless, and it wasn't very easy to get. 50% may have been a bit much, but anything else is just unoticable when lag is accounted for.
EDIT: It counts as a 20% spell cast reduction. Combined with the uncommon proc rate, one would most certainly be better off with +26 healing and 2% threat reduction - as a healer at least.
Before, the point was at least debatable...
