Good morning dear mage-friends!
Long story short: I changed classes for MoP (Shaman -> Mage). Now I am struggeling with the class mechanics, because it got more complicated then I hoped. I had to play perfectly on my ele-shaman (Cata) to get acceptable dps on the low-end, while the pure damage dealer's dps was just skyrocketing without a lot of effort (in my opinion). I noticed that the mage class comes really close to the play style of an elemental shaman, but offers more dps overall.
However in MoP my mage seems to be as clunky as my shaman in Cataclysm.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not the best player. I'm normally participating in some decent heroic raiding, but most of the time I feel like I'm the "weakest of the strongest", if you know what I mean. So one issue of my problems is certainly my lack of pro-skills
But let's get to my questions:
1. I have the feeling that stacking pyroblasts (PoM/AT/normal crits) doesn't necessarily lead to a high combustion. Sometimes I get 2-4 Pyroblasts in a row and my combustion-addon only counts ~ 14-16k dps for the possible dot. The situations where I get over 16-20k are exceptional and need a lot of luck. Am I doing something wrong?
2. Sometimes my inferno strike seems to ignore my heating up proc and generates no Pyroblast! Most of the time I'm playing around the 15% hitcap (the minimum is around ~14,90), but I don't think that the attack really misses the target. [Just Realized, that my profile shows 13% hit, I have to check this. Must be the new trinket.]
3. The ultimate skills are very crappy. For elegon I'm sticking with rune of power, but for the other bosses I feel that only invocation is viable. But invocation sucks, because you have to interrupt both movement and dps. In some situations it gets very hard to keep the buff up.
4. I'm reforging with askmrrobot. hit>crit>haste>mastery. Any ideas to improve my character?

5. Any ideas for a better overall gameplay?
