5k dmg in 1 sec on a single target is rly not enoug
fail to factor in how many things you need to get that damage (5k is a bit much with current gear, so not sure where you're getting those figures):
* 20% damage buff from pet (5 seconds having been stationary);
* to be in range of the target to get Surge of Insanity off (a lot of the time targets will be out of 88ft);
* target must be both spirit and ele debuffed;
* you have to be stationary the whole time while doing this. in a fast-paced environment, e.g. most PvP, it is very hard to get the rotation off seamlessly (I play a Havoc magus exclusively and it is very hard to keep up with a good sorc/squig herder).
A very similar line of argument was used to defend Festering Arrow one-shorting. Not saying they can be compared like apples and apples, but either 5k damage in 1s or Fester Bombing or both hard to justify.
Magus perhaps needs some love, but most definitely not in the ST department.
Difference being that Festering Arrow was an almost guaranteed oneshot and could be done in the comfort of 100ft. Getting the magus ST rotation done perfectly is reliant on a lot of factors working in your favour, whereas festering you could be anywhere and simply press it, and pop m2 and von.

Ive hit a 7k+ FA crit on live. Ive hit a 4.7k crit here. I wasnt that well geared. 9k+ on a debuffed target sure I can see that.

Are people really fighting that Magus needs buffed? It is f'n obvious they need buffed, Jesus do we play the same game? Currently they deal a lot of fluff damage. It is only in rare in some cases guarded situations while they are being burst healed that they can shine and blow some people up.
For instance - I have played with a Magus named faceballs (yes great name) - I have seen him destroy several people but that was b/c they were unguarded and I threw devour essence on him and was going to TOWN on my transfer essence and he was barely staying up but we killed like 4-5 people.
I think they deserve either more front end damage, or uncleansable dots. Maybe just not group cleanse for starters. They are the coolest looking mage class by far, yet in most cases they perform like a worthless pile of poo. You have to be extremely skilled to hold your weight other than rifting.... Any scrub sorc can get their mechanic up and put a WOP/BB on someone and hit another long cast and take off half to 3/4 of their hp lol. It is full on "derp" mode most of the cases.

Yes, against unguarded mdps (maybe excluding WH). All other classes can detaunt or run away/behind an obstacle to counter this rotation.
