if i have to go AOE (3 or more mobs and group going for AOE as well) then i just stik with fire 3 as starter then fire 2 and finish with flare, by that time, since probably all the group is doing AOE trash dungeon mobs are dead or pretty much. If we left few mobs i go for blizzard 3 after first tik or after convert otherwise, if mobs are not AOE spammers i can get close to use blizzard 2 until full of mana then go back to step one =o
