Shatter triggers if a target is 'frozen'. It appears that targets that are immune to being frozen still trigger this anyway. So Is there a frost build that should not have Frostbite? Even in AoE grinding, it seems like the risk of scattered frozen mobs is offset by higher frequency of criticals with Blizzard 'waves'. For single targets in a raid, any time the Deep Freeze is lit up, but still on cool down, wouldn't an FB + IL or FB + Fire Blast make for the best dps?
I should have read about Fingers of Frost first:
This talent shares a proc roll with Frostbite, so both talents will always proc at the same time when maxed out. This, while redundant, does still give you the opportunity to root your opponent, run away and cast the Lance within 15 seconds if it seems better to do so, instead of having to break Frostbite.
Since the proc is shared rather than separate, Frostbite is probably OK to pass over in a higher end build.
