HELP! 6.1k mage with below average dps
Frind of mine is a veteran, maybe the most veteran player on the server (Lordaeron). He literally knows everything about everything, except there is one problem: Theory and practice are the same, in theory but not in practice! His main character is mage and he does have ok-ish equipment, but he can't light up the dps-charts. What can we do to help him pull more of his weight? I obviously something like Ovale Spell Priorities could fix it, but that would probably hurt his feelings. Psychology is very important here, because he defines himself around his achievements in WoW, so his ego might be a little fragile inside, even though he displays himself like a hardcore-elitist on the outside. When you run ICC at least 3-times a week for 14 years, you should be a bit better at it. That's why I want to help him. Since I am pretty much clueless about everything and mages in particular, I need some professional to assist me on this case.
Here is what I am talking about:

Note: I used Saurfang as the benchmark, because there is no movement, so you can just keep pressing Fireball.
Here is his equipment:
