Pre-cast flurry in opening sequence

Hi all,

As flurry does more damage than frostbolt, wouldn't it make sense to pre-cast it instead of frostbolt in the opening sequence?
This is what I am currently doing at boss fights.

I have surfed around trying to find a reason why not to do it, but I can't see anything in the internet. The only reason I may think about is that the additional 1s of the pre-pot unleashes more damage than the difference flurry - frostbolt dmg.

Any reasons against? Thanks!

For most builds, it makes no difference on average (see https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/ ... hWZAz7aDbJ). This is mainly because Frostbolt also has a chance to generate procs.

With multiple Glacial Assault traits, Flurry could come out slightly ahead.
