    I think the Living bomb is overwritable in PVP vs players, just not on mobs. Not sure why either. I like it the way it is with mobs for sure.

    sidenote, for some reason my mage had better dps with frost than with fire, probably had to do with the /castseuence function sucking but could have to do with the super spell buffed features of a shaman druid paly mage type team.

    Try this spec: http://www.wowarmory.com/talent-calc...00000000000000

    Your frost mage has precision. When you say "fire" spec, I assume you mean a fireball based spec. Fireball specs are the best option only if you have very high end raid gear. If you're not at 1.8k spellpower and 450 spell hit, you will get higher dps from a frostfire spec. Frostfire is better for low end gear because you get the precision talent to help with your spell hit. Fireball is better for high end gear because fireball is a 3.5sec untalented cast time (versus frostfire bolt's 3 sec cast), so it benefits a little bit more from spellpower gear.

    Also, don't forget about icy veins and combustion. Skipping out on those will really hurt your dps. You can add them to the macro I posted:

    Code:
    /castsequence reset=target scorch,scorch,scorch,scorch,vickerisawesome
    /castsequence [combat,exists,harm,nodead] reset=12/target ,scorch,,frostfire bolt,,frostfire bolt,,frostfire bolt,,frostfire bolt,,frostfire bolt,,frostfire bolt
    /cast living bomb
    /cast combustion
    /cast icy veins


    Asside from that if you have a really high latency, frost might be the way to go for you. A frost macro consists of casting frostbolt over and over, so you don't have to use castsquences. Castsequences get hung up by higher latencies. In a zero lag situation, however, frostfire bolt is the way to go.
