Hello all once again :), well I'm going to start dual-boxing my boomkin & mage. Just wondering some opinions on others (this is for pvp). Should I spec fire with the mage to match the fireball spell 3 sec cast, or make it frost just because frost is much better for pvp.
Basically also wondering other skill matchups to cast at same time..

Druid to Mage:
Wrath is a 1.5 sec cast and the main spell for boomkin ---- X?
Starfire is 3 sec cast and the second more main cast ---- Fireball / Frostbolt
Moonfire ---- Ice Lance
Insect Swarm ----- Fire Blast?
Roots ----- X?
Blizzard ----- Hurricane

Mage to Druid:
Arcane Explosian ---- X?
Scorch ----- X?
Frost Nova ----- X?
Cone of Cold ----- X?
Iceblock ----- X?


The X's are basically what I need to figure out what to match the spell up with to use at the same time.

Any input would be great, thanks.

scorch is a 1.5 sec cast so
Scorch ----- wrath
you could probably do scorch+roots too
and blizz/hurricane would be kinda hard to pull off since you have to target.
all the other mage insta-casts could be combined with *moonfire* or insect swarm
and if you go fire than ice block won't be used

first post btw :P
and edit for more ideas!

ice block will always be used if frost or fire btw.. it's not a talent.
blizz/hurricane is ez, there's a autoping minimap aoe macro for the things = works fine.
thnx for input

Didn't realize they took out automap ping, anyways still not that big of a deal with just dual-boxing to click once on 1 screen and move my mouse over quickly and click on other screen, I make the screens the same size side by side on 24'' monitor so works fine for me.

Have a macro for instant attacks, another for your regular rotation, counterspell/stun, another for AOE.

Just make a macro with castsequence for each attack type.
