Ian definitely sympathize with the OP. I haven't set foot in Naxx yet, but I'm moving along in 80 5-mans and heros and am fighting big time to keep in the same ballpark as
other DPSlasses for total damage. My DPS numbers are great (somewhere around 1800 for a full run), generally due to AOE on 3+ targets and sh, but otherlasses are just not as, well, bursty. Theyan get more damage in on the target before it dies than Ian, whh is rather annoying. I guess I just need to worry about maximizing the DPS and not worry about overall damage, as that will help more later on. On another top, I'm having a bit of a time figuring out what to do with my sond FoF hit when I've got BF up. Should I throw the lae or the fireball? The lae willrit for a bit over 3k, and the fireball a fair bit more than that, but the fireball will do more damage without the FoF pr. So should I FrostboltIL + Fireball, or just FrostboltFireball?
I would do frostbolt + frostbolt+fireball assuming you have the ignite talents.

Most of ourasts are about 2.5-3 sonds long while many others are using instantasts and dots. Don't expt to be higher than #3 in a 5man, just don't. Is this statement still valid on a deep aane build with ne gearskill?
I was anxious for running wotlk heros but that disillusioned me (no time to raid, planning on spend most of my gametime enjoying the new instaes). So basally as a mage theres no way to top dps 5men anymore, right? on bosses maybe, on trash probably not. As stated, mobs don't live long enough for our spells to be handy.
