What are Essences?
Essences are a system of power progression for the Heart of Azeroth introduced in patch 8.2. These legendary-like bonuses are unlocked through pre-determined activities including dungeons, raids, open-world activities, PvP, reputations, and achievements, and come in four ranks: Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. The second and third ranks add to or improve the base effect, while the last unlocks a flashy visual. Each Essence has a unique Major and Minor power, which can be socketed into the Heart of Azeroth upon completing a short introductory questline. For more information on available Essences and the drop locations for each rank, see our
Heart of Azeroth Essences Overview Guide
.
Essences may be changed in any rested area, or by using any
静心书卷
type item, but the same Essence cannot be used in multiple sockets, resulting in a total of 1 Major and 4 Minor powers active at any one time. You can pre-plan and preview your Essence setup in our
Essence Calculator
.

Account-Wide Essences for Alts
While Essences have been a chore to unlock on characters until Ny'alotha, Blizzard has introduced a new system in Patch 8.3 to speed up the process of obtaining Essences for subsequent characters: Echoes of Ny'alotha! Most current activities completed, like Mythic+, PvP, or Emissaries will reward a given number of Echoes, which can be traded at MOTHER at the Chamber of Heart for a Rank 3 Essence that you have already unlocked in another toon.

Fire Mage Essence Simulations
We have comparative simulations for each of the different Major and Minor essence powers, courtesy of SimulationCraft, Bloodmallet, and other class tools. Don't forget that this is simply an overview; you can create your own comparisons as well as combinations of different essences you have unlocked on your character using
Raidbots
Top Gear function. If you are not already familiar with Raidbots and how to use it, take a look at our
How To Guide
.
Again, this is simply an overview. Certain Essences, such as Worldvein minor, may be worse in practice on encounters with heavy movement or when you are the only player in your group using it. Reference the Essence notes and recommendations below to see how your spec can best take advantage of each individual power.
Best Fire Mage Major Essences
While only one Major power can be used at a time, whichever Essence is socketed into the center node of the Heart of Azeroth will also activate its Minor Power, so both effects should be taken into consideration when determining which to use. Below is a short ranking of notable Essences you should consider using when playing a Fire Mage.

Use on: Cooldown syncing
The cooldown of the Major Power, which refunds 50% of a Fire Blast cooldown, lines up with
燃烧
, and this Essence is
extremely
strong for Fire; with it and
超线程护腕
we can fill our burn phase with
炎爆术
casts.
The Minor proc is one of the strongest currently available for Fire Mages, and the relatively high proc chance (about 15%) supports it even more. This is the strongest Minor Power we have.
Effect on gameplay
Line the Major use up with Combustion and
能量符文

Rank 4: Defeat Queen Azshara on Mythic difficulty.
Use on: General gameplay, burst
The summoned Guardian lines up with one out of every three
燃烧
casts, but can also contribute a significant amount of damage by itself. At Rank 3 it lasts for 30 seconds and provides a stacking haste buff, which could help squeeze extra casts into Combustion.
The Minor Power activates often and increases the damage you deal against the target by 3% for 6 seconds, with an uptime of about 45%.
Effect on gameplay
Summon the Guardian slightly before entering Combustion, to allow the haste buff to stack.

Use on: Single target
A very simple Essence, it has no interaction with our spec but deals high damage. Gains two charges at Rank 3; use it for burst at this point by using one charge, waiting for it to refill and then using both charges at once.
The Minor Power is a simple but powerful DoT application from spells and attacks.
Effect on gameplay
Very little, simply remember to use the ability on a priority target whenever it's available.

Rank 2: Complete a +7 Mythic dungeon.
Rank 3: Combine 15

Rank 4: Complete

.
Use on: Burst AoE as the highest priority
Has the highest burst AoE potential, although the cast and channel time makes it tricky to use (and despite being Fire damage, it isn’t affected by Combustion). It fires a beam in front of you, so positioning is key (but reasonably easy to achieve as a ranged spec).
The Minor Power provides a consistent Haste buff. It also has a
very
short duration (it almost falls off between Fireball casts), making it easy to lose if your casts are interrupted for any reason. Fortunately, the effect stacks on every damaging cast, so if it does fall, it will stack back up very quickly.
Effect on gameplay
Because of the cast time, it's important to have a good sense of timing and understanding so that you know when multiple targets will be up and grouped well enough to hit them with the beam. The essence has a cast time and then a channel, so you should ideally begin casting it
before
the targets appear or get in range, in order to maximize damage while minimizing time spent unable to cast your own abilities.
Keep in mind that this essence is available to all DPS classes, and any encounter with a heavy burst AoE element will likely have multiple players using it, so proper positioning and timing is essential to maximizing its damage potential. Too many players using it can also very likely overkill the targets, resulting in lost damage for everyone involved, so it may be worth staggering or forgoing its use altogether.

Rank 3:

Rank 4:

Use on: Burst AoE, single target (if viable)
A strong Essence for AoE or single target, helping to supplement Fire’s relatively low AoE burst damage, but the need to be within 12 yards of enemies affects its usefulness for ranged specs.
The Minor Power is entirely passive, so there is no need to worry about micromanaging it. The critical strike increase will lead to more
热力迸发
/
炽热连击
procs, and haste is always a useful stat.
Effect on gameplay
You should aim to line the Major effect up with other burst cooldowns, like
燃烧
and trinkets.

Rank 4: Rustbolt Resistance Paragon cache.
Use on: Sustained Multi-target, Mythic+
Not as bursty as the Focusing Iris, but has a shorter cooldown and is not channeled, allowing it to be used more frequently without interrupting your own abilities. The damage increase on kill can also continue to benefit you after killing off weaker enemies in groups with a strong target.
More importantly, the Minor Power
also
deals AoE damage, and so the combined effect of both Major and Minor makes it a very strong choice for content with sustained multi-target, such as Mythic+ dungeons.
Effect on gameplay
Activate as soon as the boss/pack is pulled, and on-cooldown thereafter (unless you need to save it for an add spawn or similar that will appear soon - don’t hold the cooldown for long, as it’s so short). The Essence has no synergy with our talent choices.

Rank 3: Complete the mission chain starting with "A Disturbing Rumor".
Rank 4: Complete a specific

Use on: Single target, group content, consistent damage
The uptime on Shards is very high (generally above 90% for one Shard and 50% for two, if you can remain still), which makes this a strong Essence if movement is not a factor. However, any repositioning that takes you out of range of your Shards will hurt your damage. The Major is useful in a cooldown reduction build using
薪火
and the
完美愿景
Minor, but this is very much a niche option.
Effect on gameplay
Combine the on-use effect with short cooldowns like
Meteor
for maximum effectiveness. Plan uses with periods of low movement - treat the Essence like
Rune of Power
.

Use on: Single target
8.3's version of the Crucible of Flame, this is a direct damage ability on a short cooldown. Although it doesn't have a charge system like the Crucible, the cooldown is lowered by 30 seconds (to 15 seconds) if used on a target with very high or very low health.
The Minor effect is similar, dealing passive damage, healing you and proccing more against targets in execute range. It also has 10 passive Corruption resistance.
Effect on gameplay
None, simply use on cooldown.

Rank 4: Defeath Mythic N'zoth in Ny'alotha.
Use on: Group content
A very flexible Essence, allowing you to use potentially any in the game. However, as Fire in patch 8.3 revolves around its cooldowns, and
清醒梦境之忆
massively enhances the strength of those cooldowns, you are unlikely to ever want to use this Essence as a Major.
The Minor effect, by comparison, is very strong if multiple people in your group are using Essences with a short cooldown, like the
烈焰熔炉
.
Effect on gameplay
Honestly, this is entirely going to depend on the situation you find yourself in. The Essence's strength is its versatility.
完美愿景
Source: Operation Mechagon (click for details!)
Rank 1: Defeat King Mechagon.
Rank 2:
图纸:完美同步的差速齿轮
from King Mechagon and craft
完美同步的差速齿轮
.
Rank 3: Combine 4
序列链轮
, dropped by King Mechagon.
Rank 4: Obtain
心之锁定
.
Use on: Single target, all content, general gameplay
This Essence’s proc is hard to take advantage of, as the buff is only 3.5 seconds long at its maximum rank. It
does
activate
野火
(if using it), which makes the Essence stronger, but in reality this will be difficult to use and procs will only result in one or two free crits. Setting up a WeakAura with an audible alert may help you to take advantage of it.
The Minor Power takes Combustion down to a 1:40'ish cooldown. It will be useful if it allows you to gain another cast of Combustion in a fight or it lines up with a vulnerability phase that it would not otherwise have done, which will be very dependent on the encounter.
Effect on gameplay
Both effects are entirely passive, resulting in little need for optimization or extra effort.
不羁之力
Use on: Virtually everything
This design of this Essence actually
devalues
critical strike in order to proc more often, and at 20 RPPM (multiplied by haste), it will proc every 2-3 seconds (including from DoT effects like
精通:点燃
), resulting in effectively a 100% crit buff for 4 seconds every 40-50 seconds. While it does have negative synergy with virtually everything that increases critical strike chance (including
临界炽焰
), it can still provide a lot of potential power over time.
Effect on gameplay
You should also
use the Major effect when the Minor is active
; it is a DPS loss to use if it doesn't crit. As casters, it is difficult to line up the crit buff with other abilities, but we do have some instant- and short-cast spells like
流星
ands
灼烧
that can be used to great effect with the proc. Typically do not line it up with Blood of the Enemy’s Major effect, as it will waste the additional critical strike chance.

Teaches the

PvP talent, which is a very powerful defensive tool if you're not facing a one-shot mechanic. The Major and Minor Powers also grant some stacking versatility buffs, which is a strong Fire Mage stat.
Effect on gameplay

Rank 3: Collect

Rank 4: Obtain

Use on: High mobility
The Major effect is practically useless for Mages, due to Blink/Shimmer (and the fact that we rarely want to be teleporting
in
to groups of enemies).
The Minor effect can be useful if you manage to activate it, but there are many better Essences available.
闪光术
behaves oddly with this Essence; you need to manually move a small distance for the Minor effect to activate, even after Blinking twice.
Effect on gameplay
If you're forced to use this, don't try and Shimmer just to activate the Minor before cooldowns; it's a DPS loss. The Major can be a good escape tool but again, we already have a lot of those.
AoE encounters change the order of Essences significantly. The best AoE damage Essences are:
清醒梦境之忆
聚焦之虹的精华
净化协议
仇敌之血
Best Fire Mage Minor Essences
Three additional Minor Essence slots can be unlocked over time, providing additional benefit. While the above rankings already detailed several Minor bonuses, the rankings below consider only the Minor or how it might interact when using it alongside a different Major Essence. Anything not listed is currently considered undesirable or has no noteworthy interaction.
清醒梦境之忆
Use on: Cooldown syncing
The Minor effect has a proc chance of about 15%. The proc is one of the strongest Minors currently available for Fire Mages, and this Essence is far ahead of any other Minors.
Effect on gameplay
Watch your Fire Blast charges and make sure you don't over-cap them - always have one on cooldown.
冲突与斗争
Use on: General gameplay
The Minor Power grants a stacking, passive increase to versatility, which is a strong stat for Fire Mages.
Effect on gameplay
None.
濒死之息
Use on: All content
Deals good damage with a high proc chance, as well as healing you and dealing extra damage in the execute phase of a boss. A great passive Essence.
Effect on gameplay
None, though prioritise equipping this Essence if you have high Corruption.
聚焦之虹的精华
Use on: Single target, group content
The consistent haste buff from this Minor stacks and falls off quickly - making it most useful in fights where you can chain-cast, but not unusable in fights where you have to pause in attacking or change targets.
Effect on gameplay
If your haste is low, it may be worth stacking this up before beginning your Combustion rotation. Keep the buff up by using Fire Blast during your Rune of Power cast.
仇敌之血
Use on: General gameplay
A very strong and entirely passive Minor Power, so there is no need to worry about micromanaging it. The critical strike increase will increase the number of
Pyroblast
s you can cast, and haste is always a useful stat.
Effect on gameplay
None.
无形虚空
Use on: General gameplay
Provides a significant amount of Intellect and Haste as long as allies are using their Major Essences. As tanks often run the Crucible of Flames Major, this should be up for a majority of time.
Effect on gameplay
Check your group's Major Essences before using this.
完美愿景
Use on: M+, General gameplay
Having a shorter cooldown can be a disadvantage in raid encounters if Heroism/Bloodlust/Time Warp is saved for a specific moment, as it will cause your cooldown to de-synchronise with other players’. However, it can be a major boon in the outdoor world and M+. This Minor is also key to a short-cooldown Combustion build utilising Kindling.
Effect on gameplay
Passive, so almost none. Get used to the new length of your Combustion cooldown and use it accordingly, making sure that you have it available when you need it (cooldown-syncing, dungeon bosses, etc).
烈焰熔炉
Use on: Single target, general gameplay
A passive DoT applied to your abilities. Strong, but nothing to play around or pay attention to.
Effect on gameplay
None.
世界血脉共鸣
Use on: Single target, group content, consistent damage
This Essence’s Minor effect will be most useful in group content and when a fight favours consistent damage over burst windows - although Fire is a more bursty spec.
Effect on gameplay
Plan your movement accordingly and try to remain near the spawned Shards at all times.
生命之凝力
Use on: Single target
The passive damage buff from this effect is strong against a single target, but you should not try to play around it - just continue your normal rotation.
Effect on gameplay
None.
净化协议
Use on: Sustained Multi-target, Mythic+
As detailed above, one of the few Minor Powers that deals AoE damage, and with a relatively fast proc rate, making it well suited for sustained multi-target such as Mythic+ dungeons.
Effect on gameplay
Passive, but the AoE hits enemies within 8 yards of your primary target, so be careful of using it with crowd-controlled enemies nearby.
不羁之力
Use on: Virtually everything
Has a very strange design. It actually
devalues
critical strike in order to proc more often, and at 20 RPPM (multiplied by haste), it will proc every 2-3 seconds (including from DoT effects like
Ignite
), resulting in effectively a 100% crit buff for 4 seconds every 40-50 seconds. While it does have negative synergy with virtually everything that increases critical strike chance (including
Critical Mass
), it can still provide a lot of potential power over time.
Effect on gameplay
As casters, it is difficult to line up the crit buff with trinkets or other powerful/short duration on-use effects, but we do have some instant- and short-cast spells like
Meteor
ands
Scorch
that can be used to great effect with the proc. Typically do not line it up with Blood of the Enemy’s Major effect, as it will waste the additional critical strike chance.
空间涟漪
Use on: High movement encounters
Shimmer
behaves oddly with this Essence; you need to manually move a small distance for the Minor effect to activate, even after Blinking twice.
Effect on gameplay
None. Don't try and Shimmer just to activate the Essence before cooldowns, it's not worth it.
AoE encounters change the order of Essences significantly. The best AoE damage Essences are:
Memory of Lucid Dreams -
明晰意图珍珠
Essence of the Focusing Iris -
聚焦之虹的稳定透镜
Purification Protocol -
强效净化协议
Blood of the Enemy -
被征服者的翻腾之血
