Although the itemization is poor in various ways (too many pieces with crit), I was intrigued by the 4-piece PvP set bonus in regards to tanking:

(4) Set: You gain a charge of Holy Power whenever...

Just as an aside, while the use of nochannel macros for AB are arguably bad, there shouldn't be anything wrong with replacing your AM with this macro:

Following Enthorn's comment: Since a big chunk of your damage depends on a debuff being placed by the tank, it's not a terrible idea to check parses to make sure they are doing so, particularly on...

I'll be interested in seeing more numbers on the waterbolt macros, and perhaps exact text of the macros being used. I tried a preliminary test on the boss target dummy, 2 minutes with/without a...

The one exception to that is ghost charge ice lances; though I know it's not the recommended move (and I know some people are conceptually against them working at all) more than a few people seem to...

Well, it is 5% less damage theoretically, it could be more or less in practice. 5% puts it in the kind of range where you're likely to find one spec having an advantage in some fights and the other...

I just wanted to quote this to emphasize it, as I think it has a very nice idea for both buffing damage and adding at least slightly more variability to the frost mage rotation (as did the earlier...

Though, with a 30/0/41 build you're not going to be using an arcane rotation, you'd be using a frost rotation. Near as I can tell (not knowing the exact spec), you'd have to lose Chilled to the...

I think the points about survivability as a poor raid stat are exactly right. If, played properly, your non-frost mages can survive the fight as well and do more damage in the process, then slightly...
