    If you have a seeker with soul shatter - fire skills.

    Otherwise just undine - and use earth skills and throw in a pyrogram or something when waiting for cooldowns.

    I generally undine -> triple spark -> cloud -> sutra combo -> derp skills when im solo'ing frost. By the end of the first spark, most bosses are either dead or pretty close to dead. Skill choice depends on gear/culti/etc though, for a sage wiz with my gear it is generally best to alternate between pyro and stone rain against frost bosses.. but as I said it may be different depending how similar your character is to mine.

    Hmm, since you are asking i guess you are not 100 yet, maybe not even 89 so triple spark sutra combos might not work....

    I advice undine + mostly fire+earth skills on FC bosses, just doing pyrogram+stone rain and repeat might be good enough... those bosses arent hard and dont demand great DDing on them

    I just use primal glacial embrace, undine, spark, and herpderp with channeling gear. Bosses die in 2 sparks or so.

    With regard to the comment about Soul Shatter I would do undine, triple spark, sutra, div pyro, pyro, pitfall, stone rain, sandstorm. Soul shatter works on earth skills too and the fc bosses have low earth defense.

    If you're running FC in average gear or if you are lower level, the quick answer is earth, earth and more earth. Every boss in FC is water element. Even the phoenix, I know it says fire, but do a damage test, it is actually weak to earth.

    Just a general tip, not really specific to FC, you can build a series of macros that capitalize on elemental resists. For example, water mobs are weak to earth, so you make a macro that focuses mainly on earth skills, and toss in a fire skill or two to help with cooldowns. Fair warning though: don't use them until you're comfortable with the individual boss fights, several bosses in FC require you to move to avoid potentially fatal AOEs, and nothing sucks more than stopping to cast a skill right before an AOE goes off.
