Default Fastest encounter damage spells?

Does anyone know of any clickies, racial, or other obtainable fast casting encounter based damage spells? I'm looking for something that procs spell curse and is faster than ego melt.

Erudites have lightning arc, that's kinda slow though. Not sure what the cast time on some of the other racials is.

Ego Melt only takes 1s to cast anyways though.

Disecting Gaze
Dysphoria
Lightning Arc
Shockwave

Throw in one or two procing items, or PoM, and you've blown through Spell Curse in about 4 seconds.

Dysphoria and proc's don't proc spell curse.

To maximize PoM on multi-mob fights I generally cast
Hostage
PoM
Spell Curse (does trigger PoM)
Dissecting Gaze
Shock Wave
Ego Melt
Lightning Arc (Erudite racial)
<stuff>
Dissecting Gaze
<stuff>
Spell Curse
Dissecting Gaze (this last one gets in right as the 20s duration is expiring on PoM)

This gives 7 encounter wide hits of PoM and one 4-mob hit of PoM.

Hmm, I noticed in Nu'roga the other day spell curse would count AoE spells all as an indivdual trigger. Meaning on a group on 5, one AoE would end the spell. Maybe its just those mobs, or maybe I'm just seeing things, but I'm pretty sure that was the case. I'd be surprised if they had actually nerfed it, just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same.

Spell curse, with AA's, is 5 triggers on an encounter. Its not 5 ticks per mob, that would be way overpowered. The display doesn't reflect this though, it only "shows" ticks decrease on the single mob you had cast it on. But, you'll never actually get more than 5.
