Here is my Weakauras setup, which seems to make an important difference in my Combustions:
Main group of procs (icons are bigger and positioned on my character's back): Bloodlust, Wush ligntning, Potion of Jade Serpent
On a pull like Lei Shen (no Bloodlust), you will have the Wush lightning + Potion buffs, which is enough for you to reach 200k+ . But popping your Combustion sequence with AT when those 2 buffs are up is not sufficient. You need to wait for your Wush lightning to have less than 10 seconds remaining on the buff. This also depends on your level of crit. The more crit you have, the lower you can drop and the better your Combustion will be due to the stacking effect.
Secondary group of procs (smaller icons, situated underneath the main group of procs): Legendary meta gem proc, Jade Spirit proc, Talisman of Shando Pan proc.
This is kind of a net proc group. Sometimes my Wush just won't proc, and I have to use combustion within a few more seconds. I will turn to that group to time my Combustion.
A fight like Tortos is a good exemple. When you see Call of Tortos and your Wush ligntning has not procced yet, you need to take a decision. Given that you Bloodlust at the start, you should have: Bloodlust, Potion of Jade serpent, and most likely Jade Spirit + Legendary meta gem proc. I just left out both my trinket procs here. Given that 4 buffs are up and that the Whirl Turtles are approaching you have to Combust. Your Ignite should still be around 125k-150k with these buffs and will tick quite often, partly making up for the trinkets not proccing. But the main goal here is to pop Combustion on the Whirl Turtles. If you miss that window, even if you can get a 300k Ignite with your tinket, it will not make up for the DPS loss on the turtles.
Hope this helps
