I think the correct statement is:

Mage T8 profiles use T7 gear stats.

Edit: I know this is known (at least to you guys), but until they are updated maybe don't put the T8 mage profiles in the release, since they are not T8 profiles.

The reason those profiles mana usage is spikey is because they are set to life tap to keep the glyph active, so they tap every 30 seconds regardless of mana.

Scale factor Deltas

Where do you set the scale factor deltas in this new format? I had a look in the obvious places (the sim config files, globals.simcraft, scale_factors.bat) but didn't see it.

You should take corruption out of the destro cycle and see how it does. Destro doesn't have molten core anymore, and corr is lower DPSC than incinerate, so it should be a buff.

Haha no worries :).
Simcraft has a defaut stat set for each class, and as far as I can tell it's roughly equivalent to tier 7 gear, hit capped with roughly equal +crit and +haste ratings.
