These forums are not for individual hand-holding, and are geared toward end-game raiding and getting the most out of your character at the highest levels of play.

The fire mage thread is pretty clear on what your casting priority is to maximize your DPS; the answer to your question is readily available in the first post. Either read more, sim it to get the best priorities using the available tools, or both. If you read the available information, you'd probably have a better idea, for instance, how to gem and to enchant your gear, and you would probably not be wearing multiple pieces of gear with spirit on them (or that ancient, trivially-replaced blue trinket). Regardless, you're asking us both to (a) confirm sim vs. in-game results, which nobody is interested in doing, and (b) do your homework for you. These are against the forum rules that you agreed to when you signed up here.

Also, posters here are expected to write clearly. Run a spellchecker and read your sentences out loud if you decide to post again - some of what you wrote is borderline coherent.

Original Post:

Hellow I was woundering would it be considered a DPS loss to ignore Hot streak procs when there is still more less then 10 seconds but nore than 2 seconds left on the pyroblast DOT effect on the boss? I have done it both ways using hot streak procs when they happen and not using the procs when there is less than 10 seconds but more than 2 seconds left on bosses. Over all I have seen about a 3k to 4k difference in DPS with not using the hot streak procs right away but only to maintian the DOT. Can any one else confirm this for me or is this just how the gearing I have done on my mage just supports this.

Here is a link to my mage and I know some of my pieces are not correct, they were a major upgrade over what I had at the time.
