Was up against the test dummy today, 36% crit self-buffed (with molten armor) 33% w/ mage armor. mana gem glyph + scorch glyph. specced 11/50/0
My rotation was to put up scorch, fireball spam until HS procced, throw a pyro, and continue (Refreshing scorch when i needed to of course). I was running oom with both specs in less than 2 minutes (approximately 1:40-1:50) after about 3 tries with each. A few points to note, this was using SCB + Mana gems, I did not evocate (which would effectively double my approximate dps time when it gives me back about 85% of my mana [4pc/2pc t6 bonuses included]). I did not mana pot, so that would put me right around 2 minutes if I would do that, I just wanted to see how far I could get by my own means.
Even with a guildy spriest (bt geared) there I was oom in 2:10 (putting focus magic on him, which stayed up quite a but surprisingly) with molten armor and oom in 2:40 with mage armor.
Is this to be expected of us, or am I doing something wrong (outside of mana potting at cooldowns).
