Imo your FN is your bread and butter. My mage is only 32 but I pull a mob with frostbolt, nova when he's close, frostbolt then cone of cold right after and end up nearly killing the mob. At 69 u should be able to pull off bigger combos.. FN then frostbolt/icelance/cone of cold... you can get your water elemental to jump in the mix too. Always start your shatter combo with a frost bolt then use instants and you'll be less likely to break the root prematurely.

Please post an armory link to your character so that we can see your spec. You have sufficient damage that you should not have these problems either as frost or fire. While frost depends (somewhat) more on kiting the mobs around, you should be able to kill them 1v1 pretty quickly especially with fire.

Pyroblast is only used as an opener.
Other than that I think you just aren't doing something really basic correctly... putting the right level of skill on the hotkeys? Are you doing rank 1 fireball?

The key to using pyroblast as an opener is to sheep your target first. That keeps them from wandering too far.
I've never had to use FN to kill a mob, but that's mostly because I have Improved AM. My normal questing rotations basically Pyroblast, Fireball, Fireblast (optional, depending on how much life the mob has left) and AM.

I almost always see mages at the top of the DPS charts
this is not true outside of 5 mans.
(equally skilled players, not a good mage with retards)
