There's nothing wrong with your spec, except I'm surprised your mages haven't been crying at you to get Harmonisation.

Gear-wise, you're not using BCG, which is the choice for a lot of troubs. Also I don't see much in the way of +piercing in your gear. What's your melee hit % like? Don't underestimate our melee dps, it can be really nice if we actually hit stuff. Trooper Scale boots are well worth getting too. And fascination set is useless now - mastercrafted is better.

Apart from that, you may just need to tweak your casting order and play around a bit. What kind of group do you normally have also? Buffs from Wiz, Warlock, Conj etc (procs) are the key. An inq is really awesome for our dps too. I always get a better zw with an inq in group than any other healer.

With your weapons and such you should be closer to 2k dps not 1.5k. Try redoing your casting order of spells, and spam perfection of the maestro... It actually helps dps now instead of gimping it out.

And yes, inquisitors are hawt for out dps... DPS mod + haste via fanaticism + proc that triggers off spells and melee.

yea durin raids i usually throw up PotM then hit myself with JC

here is my spell order

Not really sure, but cant see a lot of +spell dmg on your gear? I think a troub should at least have enough to cap out Steal Essence.

All your jewelry (+ cloak) but neck and STR ring could easily be upgraded by quest rewards or instance drops IMO. Do you have a haste item?

Do you have all the good adornments in place too?

what zone u'r doing? t1 and t2 ROK zone?

U need to test other spell orders. U need to throw in all your magical debuffs and then your mental spelll and CA followed up. With the way of your AA lines, u should do at least 1900 because i don't have agi line, only str line and i don't have 5pts for int line for +melee bonus, and I'll be able to do 1900+.

PS: don't concentrate too much on 1 thing like spell damage, u need to balance out. Melee damage and crits are your extra dps.

well yea 1.5 is probally a bit below my average. i mean sometimes i can get up to lik 2.3 on Rok trash mobs t1
