Re: 2 Questions about how to be better!

WoW Heroes shows your gear to be better than mine, (the only set bonus I have is 2-piece T7, WoW Heroes rates me at 2189...I still have much improvement to go as I still use my Deadly off-set pieces for PVE, lol.)

In VoA10 I typically break 4k+ dps if it is a well balanced group, and in VoA25 I average between 4500-5100 dps.

Here is a screenshot I took during my last VoA run. This is just Emalon25 dps.

Typical Destro rotation: Immo > CoD > Conflag > CB > Incin filler...keeping Conflag/CB on CD and switch to Curse of Agony if the boss has less than a minute to live.

Life Tap takes 1 GCD, get away of that, LT only when and if needed.
Use CB, Conf and Immo glyphs and if you want to see big numbers always use every buff you can get!

Immo and Conflag glyphs yes, but you should be using the Incin glyph over CB.

You don't have to just "see" what it does, you can know what it does via theory crafting and the tools available to you right now.

Glyph of Incinerate ups your incinerate DPS by 5%, and if you look at a DPS meter you will see Incinerate forming around 50% or more of your DPS in your spec if you are throwing a lot of fire around similar to deep destro.

Glyph of Chaos Bolt lowers a 12 seconds cooldown to 10 seconds. So you can cast slightly more chaos bolts, still you are doing that at the expense of casting something else, so it isn't even a 17%ish boost to chaos bolt because you are losing something else by lowering it's cooldown. Also Chaos Bolt doesn't form more than 10% of your overall DPS, so unless the DPS boost were really quite high, it's suboptimal.

It might be more of a PVP glyph where you do short bursts of damage and want time to have your perfect high damage rotation ready for the next player, but I could be wrong about the PVP applicability.

Good luck
