Your attitude is poor, your argument is based on an opinion and results "against other mages", and you're using unnecessary abbreviations.

Also, while taking into consideration that English isn't your native language, the numerous spelling errors in your post still tend to show a lack of care and effort.

Heck some people I've seen using 33/28 would've been doing more DPS if they geared for 2/47/11+1 than the way they were gearing with 33/28, and do even more with 2/47/11+1 no matter what gear choice they were using.

That's why it's easy to fool yourself into thinking 33/28 works. It just doesn't work with realistic gear available in the game, nor does it work taking itemization cost of stats into account.

Plz Quote when i said that i do more on point DPS with 33/28 than if i went 2/47/11 ???...

What i said is that i normaly run dry of mana faster as full fire, than when im 38/28... this has nothing to do with your on Point DPS, but about your effectiveness over time. I also said that i do more DPS than by far the most mages ive played against.

Finaly i pointed to what kind of math other had done towards my stats and my build, and that acordingly im on a fine line between the to...

Plz Quote when i said 33/28 was the best build out there?... no i didn't i said its not crap for raiding.

I can't explain how or why... but my observations is that i can go on for the 10 min needed in many boss fights. doing a very expensive Fireball, Fireball, Fireblast roatation. Throwing in the needed Scorch for every 3'ed rotation.

Also my 33/28 aint the normal 33/28 since ive chocen to have the +6% to fire from firepower.

There is only 1 main reason i use +5 spell damage +4 crit rating gems for trash over +9 spelldamage. Try and gues why? Darn your wrong, i don't think they are better... Crit rating only scales better than damage for my build down at 20% and up to about 30% with the amount of damage i stack (Or about very roughly below 1/3 of what your + damage is, total critrating including talents). So then why? GOLD GOLD GOLD... On the server i play Orance gems are 1/3 of the price to a Living Ruby. Elixirs are by far cheaper than Flasks (unless its a wipe, wipe and wipe raid).

There seems to be a very nice side bonus of all that crit i stack tho, Mana mana mana... And thats sadly something you can't really come into eny understandable math unless your quite high educated within the mathematical field.

Theory only gets you so far, from that point on theres only one thing left. and thats experience. And as long as im where i am agains most other mages, im gonna stick with small tweaks here and there.

At work now so the few screens i got to make last night will have to wait.
