I hear a lot of good things about fire on this forum. And to be honest, on heroics trash it's great. But for single targets (i.e. nearly every heroic boss), it feels significantly worse than both frost and arcane. It could be I'm just not performing adequately, but for all the fire lovers out there, how are you finding fire for single targets?
Perfectly fine.
Are you weaving scorch at a rate of about 2 fireballs per 5 scorches?
Are you using flame orb on cooldown?
Are you saving enough mana for fireball spam when the boss hits 35%
Are you optimizing your combustion by waiting to use it for at least ignite and living bomb if not pyroblast
Extremely good.
Hard cast pyro, lb, throw a couple fireballs in to get an ignite and wait for trinket procs. Put flame orb/combustion up spam more fireballs and watch the numbers fly.
Naturally being a superior troll race I pop berserking before my combustion to get 17/18 ticks for drive the tank crazy with threat damage. ^_^
Thanks for the tips. I guess my dps is going to be even higher, because I had completely forgotten about flame orb...getting a gob to 85 has made my brain mush.

Read that and your fire DPS will magically improve by a lot, at least mine did :P
