Original Post:

Well only thing i would recommend is to still cling to Glyph of Lightning Shield, as there's still the possibility to loose stacks in certain fights. Although i thought of dropping it myself, once. (Just realised you have it in your second spec; Do you switch between bosses all the time?)
DPS wise I'm not really the best myself, since my role in my 10 man raid is kicking, purging and sometimes even help out with a heal, but i think the key is knowing the fight and the situationals: movement, cooldowns, BIG cooldowns, which is basically the key to every DPS class. Especially for Elemental i consider hardest managing Fulmination/ES with FS and use of SWG.
Considering AoE we may be flawed. EQ is broken, FN is close to broken and i stick to my glyph of CL and single traget rotation with Thunderstorm when possible.
So I'd say:
Check your movement dps while raiding, see if you can adjust something here. Highly recomend dropping searing totem while movement even if it isn't close too expire, since every spell on the move is dps loss and you shouldn't redrop it while you are able to go all out.
Check your Fire Elemental Totem uptime, which should be close to 2 mins.
