    As a Fire Mage, how do you manage your Hot Streak procs (outside of Combustion)?

    As I understand it, outside of Combustion with no Heating Up or Hot Streak, you're spamming Fireball. Eventually you get a Heating Up proc but it will happen during the next Fireball cast because the previous Fireball has to travel to the target. You then cast Fire Blast to convert it into a Hot Streak proc.

    My question is do you cast Pyroblast immediately after finishing the Fireball cast or do you use Fire Blast late into the Fireball cast (to avoid losing the Hot Streak proc), and then start another Fireball and cast Pyroblast at the end of that one?

    Essentially is it:

    -Fireball->Fire Blast
    -Insta Pyroblast


    OR

    -Fireball->late Fire Blast
    -Fireball->Insta Pyroblast

    It is always:

    Because if the first fireball you used(in your second setup) crits, you've just munched a proc and potentially lost DPS.

    Can the first Fireball crit alongside the Pyroblast to give me another Hot Streak?

    Yes that's exactly why you do it this way as well.
