Powerful SOD Mage Exploit (Patreon)

So since SOD has released there have been some very interesting rune-based exploits discovered most of which were already fixed. Icy veins for example could be swapped out on launch. There was a youtube video published of a living flame + icy veins combo that worked very well for a short time. Most of the obvious stuff I have tested has been covered, but this one I felt was worth sharing:

The SOD team seems to be very small and not overly concerned with exploits that probably would never exist on retail so its worth looking for exploits in predictable places ie methods which reliably created exploits in earlier wow expansions.

The mage rune talent regeneration can be obtained using the following public guide:

Regeneration when cast causes a temporary buff called "temporal beacon" which heals its target based on arcane damage. This buff survives removal of the chest item with the rune affix. This means you can have temporal beacon active with a different chest rune entirely eg Burnout which increases critical strike chance or Enlightenment which increases stats or mana regeneration.

This is a very powerful exploit. It allows the mage to temporarily have the full power of a healer and dps. This is very strong for leveling and gold farming.
