So really, you'll be making up for Pyromaniac with Piercing Ice, but you'll lose the Imp. Scorch bonus to Fireball and the World in Flames bonus to LB and Pyro. So overall, you come out 9% behind on Fireball and 12% behind on LB and Pyro.
IMO, they should replace Burning Soul with a +crit talent and make Piercing Ice a +damage talent. This lets frost choose to move away from the +crit talent when they start to soft cap out on crit around 33.33%. Of course, for that to work, we'd need to actually have tier 2 talents that are interesting to cross-specs in PvE. Right now, all PvE specs are going to be 31/5/5 give or take a few points.
