Hi simpletom,
Arcane is the top dps mage spec right now. A couple of patches and Fire moves back into connection with late game gear and crits.
When doing this, I based it on the Firestarter talent. Firestarter gives you two instant Flamestrikes. One after Blast Wave and one after Dragon's Breath. With the below macro, you can get all 4 spells off in a couple of seconds doing massive damage X 3. Takes out most heroic groups. If not, Dragon's Breath dazes them so you can AE them or just clean them up with the tank.
/castsequence [@player] reset=10 blast wave, flamestrike, dragon's breath, flamestrike
/cast combustion
/use 13
/use 14
And, like you said Blizzard is a great spell at range, plus their normal Scorch, Fireball, instant Pyroblast combo.
Forgot to add I have the Blast Wave glyph that gets rid of the knockback so you can aoe them down.
