I have to disagree with that. In most raids I have/had around 8200 mana with buffs and I ran out every single battle. I also had the highest damage using the raid calculator thing, I even beat out the rogues. Some people sit on the side lines and cheer for the team and others get out onto the court and make some shots
On a more serious note, it just depends on what type of mage you are, the steady damage mage (usually frost/arcane or just frost) or the super damage until mana is gone mage (usually fire/arcane or fire). A combination of the types, such as 1 super damage and 1 steady damage, or 2 and 1, or 1 and 2, is really great for UBRS and other similar dungeons. Gets you out much quicker. From what I've experienced. Also helps a ton on bosses.
In UBRS, I've done nearly 400,000 damage in one run, #2 spot being a rogue coming in around 280,000. Just depends if you go Apeshit or take it easy. Your healer will HATE you but on the bright side, the only person in the group he has to heal is you
