A mage friend of mine keeps bragging how imba he is when he is always 150kdmg+ under me. He is specced exactly like me, cookie cutter arcane, correct glyphs, and everything, but I'm yet to see him come close.
A bunch of us in naxx25 break 5k dps(Patchwerk) but he does 3.7k~ and lags by up to 200k dmg
Replies maybe "why do you care" but I'm just very curious and I dont like being no.1 all the time. I know arcane is a fast specc to play but hes been playing it forever and still plays it like he just specced yesterday. Plus I want a rival.

check his recount for what he casts, watch his rotation now and then. then compare to yours and tell him what he is doing different than you.
I see his rotation of abx3, abarr or am on procc and ofc adjust number of ablast for mana. He plays well but hes just slow and like noobishly hesitant he also has better gear than me :o, personally I use
Quartz
cast bar to see my lag and make sure I use all the time I have but I dont know if he really takes dps seriously.

Look at a WWS report, and follow line by line what he does. This will show you when he casts, when he doesn't, what he's doing, etc.... This is the only real way to tell, other than physically looking over his shoulder in RL.
Does he burn at the right times? Evocate with IV? Use macros to combine CDs and ABs? What does his gear look like? Things like that will also help you figure out how to help him optimize what he's doing.
Even though I discussed in forum when its best to blow CD's and mentioned literally everything from iv evoc, to nuking in heroism its useless :S
sorry for the text wall
Np :]
He keeps rolling on stam/int/spi spellpower gear and doesn't go for haste gear such as Heigan's Putrid Vestments while retaining t7(4) set bonus.
Thanks for replies

What do you mean by "in forum"? I hope that doesn't mean "in public" or in "guild chat", or anything like that. If so, they you probably just made him put up a defensive wall. It's best to discuss these things with people 1 on 1, and no audience. They tend to listen more without peers around.
Just a thought.
Hey this is nice to see someone who thinks like me, advice is best discrete.
On forum, I mean the guild forum it was a general post of course not directed to someone, was a mini arcane guide with tips and links. etc.
