I've actually seen pretty much what I expected with my fire mage... Single target dps has dropped some (assuming this is due to not having ignite up nearly constantly) and my multi-target dps has gone through the roof. As in, the other night in BoT working on the trash at the bottom of the stairs after Halfus, I managed 90k. Due to a mishap leaving us to simply AoE all the trash in that center group, I popped combustion and watched my dps go insanely high.

I have noticed hot streak seems to proc more often though, and I've also noticed that it's seeming to proc twice every single time it procs. Not just by combustionhelper stating so, but also the default Blizz ui seems to be showing the same. The same goes with ignite sometimes being applied when it should and sometimes not, or at least I'm assuming I can agree with this when I see combustionhelper showing ignite is up, but when looking at the mob it in fact isn't.

All in all, on single target fights I'd have to say that the quantity was nice compared to quality, but that may simply be because I'm used to just throwing combustion up whenever I see all three of my burns because it was always a random guess as to what kind of ignite was on the target. So hopefully once I get used to taking the time to notice a nice pyro ignite it'll get back to what it was. I mean, at least Blizz isn't ignoring the problem, right?
