I.e. they come up just as the last adds die and it hits them while you stand around waiting for Lurker to resurface.
Basically my macro tries to pop CDs every time I launch a fireball; the G15 just spams the macro 50 times in a second in the hope that it will go off as soon as possible rather than trying to manually time it for estimated latency. If I'm trying to save my CDs I just use a different button, but you do have a point in that I'm not paying enough attention to when I should be saving them.

I've kept the blue gems not so much for the socket bonuses but because my health is only about 7.2k unbuffed, so it seems silly to chuck them out in favour of damage gems for extra DPS when I see 8-9k mentioned as a recommended minimum :/

Anyhow, thanks for all that, I'll take a look at the gear you mentioned and play with Rawr a little more.

Edit in:
Edit: P.S. Get used to getting out DPS'd by Warlocks. It only gets worse the higher the content. Trust me on that.
Heh, at least at the moment it's just the RL (who recently switched mains) beating me. No doubt the others will catch up, but I'll keep trying to ensure that they have to work damn hard to do so!
