25 Man Loot
Cosmos

Cosmos , Best in slot offhand ?

Starshard Edge

Coolest looking caster weapon out there , and best in slot.

10 Man Loot

Drape of the Messenger

Looks great and the stats are amazing.

Nebula Band

Great stats and a yellow gem slot too

As you can see Algalon is the source of many Best in slot items. So that is a little incentive to get to him. Downing him though will be another story because he is a very hard boss on 10 man and even more difficut on 25 man. I am expecting my guild to start trying him on 10 and 25 man in a month or so.

Good Luck

Keyboard
I went on Ebay and found a pretty good deal on a G15 keyboard for 50 dollars, ordered yesterday so should come by the end of the week. It has some very nice features like how it shows my Characters stats on the LED screen or how it shows who is talking in Ventrillo. There are also many other Applets that you can install for other games like Counter Strike, Battlefield 2 and Day of defeat.

Looks good and has back lighting for late night raids !

Mouse
I went with another logitech product, The MX400 mouse. Its cheaper and i realized its pointless to spend more money on something that fulfills such a simple task. All that i ask is that it keeps working and does not die like my Dell mouse/computer did.

A nice and simple mouse from Logitech

I will write a full review after i use it for a week or two.

Thanks

More Crit for your Spellpower

It actually is a very good alternative to Frostfire. My dps went up about 600 DPS. My gear is not even that great and i was pulling about 4.6k DPS.

Gear

Your gear should at least be best in slot from 10 man naxx. You should have around 24-26 % crit unbuffed. You are going to want to have 1700 Spellpower unbuffed. Haste Should be over 300 if possible.

Talents

Here is a good basic Spec to start from. This allows for good mana regen and allows you to hit your hardest.

Rotation
Start with a Living Bomb > Fireball > Instant Pyroblast ( If procced ) > Refresh Living Bomb

You want to use Your Gem (If you still have 2 Set T7 ) During a heroism or keep it on cooldown because TTW/Fireball is a bit mana hungry. Also use Mirror Images when heroism pops or at the beginning of a fight. Because when you chain crit for 12 three times ……you can pull aggro and die.

Other Important Info
You must to be hit capped. Having a Balance druid or a Shadow priest in your raid group is great for the 3 % Hit buff.

Aoe burns through mana fast, so time evocation well.

Have other mages Focus magic you , and then you focus magic them. There is an easy 6 % crit.

Stack lots of spell power !!!, Empowered Fire is a talent that increases the damage done by Fireball by 15 % of your spell power

Summary
TTW/Fireball is a very fun spec to play and its always fun to crit for a ton of damage and top the meters. The only bad part is it can be very gear and mana dependent. So timing your cooldowns is still essential if you want to still top the dps like you did with arcane.

Toorc of Kel Thuzad is a great pvp arcane mage. He really blows everything up.
