You would deal a lot more damage if you would cut the excessive scorching altogether. Debuffing adds on Karathress won't yield enough of a boost to make up for the lost Fireballs. Debuffing Lurker will take too long if you keep in mind that Imp Scorch will run out everytime he dives. Unless the fight is an absolute tank-n-spank where your debuff won't ever run out you better just Fireball. You should also make better use of [Serpent-Coil Braid]. Use your first gem (Citrine for example) as soon as possible. In a 5 minutes fight you should be able to use the trinket three times - just like any other "clicky"-trinket. There are better alternatives if you are not utilizing the trinket to the max (Crusade-Deck for example). Note: Use your Icon first and then eat a managem not the other way around. Depending on your Mana (read: if you get a Shadowpriest) you should use Fireblast and Molten Armor.
Ty for your advice, i do use Molten armour all the time, and and my group usually consists of 3xmage, SP, Sam, or 4xmage, SP
I was thinking about using Fireblast in my rotation but i though i read somewhere unless you are moving then use fireblast (like right before lurker dives) else 7x or 6xFireball and scorch (not 8x because it assumes perfection which can make you recast 5x scorch)
i have also been collecting the crusader-deck and trying to get LC incase i do decide to go arcane (as you can see my guild is arcane mage heaven with out setups)..

I have also been trying to optimize how to use the serpent trinket, i recently recieved it (2 nights ago) , i have been using my icon before mana potting, i usually use Flame cap as well, so usually start out with icon flame cap after initial scorch. then when icon is back on, combust, icon, mana pot, i have been trying hard to get a rotation down where i can activate serpent and combust at the same time so i can optimize my crit damage but it has been very hard.
I also try to keep 1 mana pot for after 20% boss hp so i can use do as much damage as possible.
