Help the mage!

This special post is to help our mage!

I try to collect all important informations, which you need for the start for single target damage.
Try to improve your damage trainings dummy.

Fire Mage

Basics

Intellect is the strongest stat by far.

1742 hit = 17%

Reforge Master to hit, crit or haste.

Molten Armor

Fire Mobility - Never stop casting! Fire can use every spell in its arsenal while moving except for Fireball. While moving continue casting as normal, but use Scorch in place of any Fireball casts.

Mana Management - After Patch 4.06 - there isn't much 'Mana Management' required to playing the Fire spec anymore. However, make sure you have enough mana to cast Fireball during Molten Fury range (-35% Health), Boss weakened phases and during powerful trinket on-use or passive proc periods.
