Thought I'd attempt to look/make it myself rather than expecting you guys to do all the effort.
But I don't have your knowledge of mechanics, balance and spell interplay.
I won't be raiding on my mage, so just interested in AoE/ Heroic DPS.
Chose Cauterise, as if I'm trigger happy, often get threat/death.
Er that is, if Fire's best for heroic AoE dps?

Fire is not only the best AoE dps, it is probably the only kinda of AoE you can get as a mage. Arcane has only one AoE and frost has just one good AoE spell.
As for which talents, drop
and put the 2 points into
. The only reason to cast a Fire Blast is to cleave DoTs onto other targets. Other then that it looks good.

But, isn't that really good for AoE Dps? Can be like casting 4/5 spells at once for only 1 global cool down?

Instant spells still impose global cooldown.
What I mean was if I've got a 10 second LB on a target as well as ignite or other dots, for 1 button press, Impact then applies LB+dots onto 3 targets.
That's at least 4.5 seconds in GC saved from casting LB. Sorta.

But you get that from Impact, not from Improved Fireblast.
