Question - Trying to max Mage DPS

[Myysterio]

I know a mage's primary job isnt to max dps, but i think my mage is missing a lot of potential. Any suggestions to this spell list or weaving strategies that are effective for mages?

On my mage I use the following :-

DPSOn=2
DPSSize=13
DPSSkip=0
DPSInterval=0
DPS1=Riotous Servant|99
DPS2=Spire of Elements|93|Weave
DPS3=Malaise|98|Cond6
DPS4=Twincast Rk. II|98|Cond2
DPS5=Spear of Molten Komatiite|97
DPS6=Firebound Orb II|93|Weave|Cond9
DPS7=Shockwave of Many|96
DPS8=Chaotic Pyroclasm|95
DPS9=Force of Elements|94|Weave
DPS10=${InvSlot[Chest].Item.Name}|92
DPS11=Ether-Fused Shard|91|Weave|Cond9
DPS12=Host of Elements|91
DPS13=Servant of Ro|90
DebuffAllOn=0

I'm still playing around with the nuke order but with a Dru + Enc in group my mage does around 300k dps.

I've never played a Mage as a main character so I try to keep it fairly simple and not have too complicated a setup.

I'm much in the same boat, while I'm generally familiar, the strategy to play them optimally is lost on me.

I use rgmercs for my mage and he does great DPS.

Wow that's a lot of conditionals. Are you using your mage as the only pet class? Also, is your ini just specific for avatar of war?
