re: Helpful sites

Just thought I'd share some helpful sites for mages. Most of these are from elitistjerks.com seeing as I find these the best source of info about mages and theorycrafting in general.
Frostfire Bolt Spec Info
http://elitistjerks.com/f75/t37364-frostfire_bolt_thread_updated_3_1_a/
Arcane Spec
http://elitistjerks.com/f75/t42876-arcane_thread/
Frost Raiding
http://elitistjerks.com/f75/t37133-raiding_frost/
Just a quick bit of basic info if you dont feel like reading through pages and pages of info:
Elemental Precision [Frost] = 3% hit
EP Glitch has been fixed for a while so its not 6% for frost spells, still 3%
Arcane Focus [Arcane] = 3% hit
Hit cap for mages = 17% (raid boss +3 lvls above) [445 hit]
With just EP or AP itll drop it down to 14% [367hit]
With both EP and AP (usually arcane or frost specs) 11% [288 hit]
If raiding with a shadow priest [misery] or boomkin [imp ff] 8% [209 hit] (assuming you have both EP and AP, otherwise just drop 3% off whatever your hit is if you raid with these classes)
Since we are alliance, if Draenei present for Heroic Presence thats another 1% hit you wont need just minus 26 hit from the numbers above.
AoE, depending on your spec, take note that Flame Strike rank 9 and Flame Strike rank 8 the dots will stack, not sure if itll be hotfixed, or fixed in a future patch but take advantage of it now.
