I remember hearing at various points that fire mage is terrible (or at least not as good) until it reaches a certain threshold of gear. Is that still the case? Could I just start out in M+ as fire and do well (with the proper rotation and knowledge of course)?
From what it looks like, Fire is the prefered spec for M+, so you should be good their. You’ll be fine as long as you do mechanics. If you know you rotation and such, your dps will be fine aswell. I wouldn’t worry about it too much and jump in

No it isn’t true anymore. Crit used to be required for it to function (as you need back to back crits to get an instant pyroblast), but they’ve baked in various buffs and have changed how you use your spells that fix that problem. Play it away.
