Talents which effect frostbolt DPS
---------------------------------------
Improved Frostbolt
Elemental Precision
Ice Shards
Piercing Ice
Winter's Chill
Arctic Winds
Empowered Frostbolt
Cold Snap
Summon Water Elemental
Frost Channeling

In a raid environment, most mobs and all bosses are immune to snare effects (frost nova and slowing), therefore frostbite and shatter are of very little use, which is why I haven't included them in this list.


Combined effect of these talents on frostbolt:

-10% damage coefficient (multiplicative: 0.90)
+10% damage coefficent (additive: -0.10)

Frostbolt Formulas
---------------------

damage_coefficient = (binary_spell_penalty * base_cast / 3.5) + Empowered_Frostbolt_Bonus) * (improved_frostbolt_penalty)
damage_coefficient = ((0.95 * 3.0 / 3.5) + 0.10 ) * 0.90
damage_coefficient = 0.822857

frostbolt_damage = (avg_base_damage + damage_coefficient * bonus_spell_damage) * piercing_ice_bonus * arctic_winds_bonus
frostbolt_damage = (620 + 0.82257 * bonus_spell_damage) * 1.06 * 1.05
frostbolt_damage = 690.06 + 0.91552041 * bonus_spell_damage

DPS = frostbolt_damage * (1 + frostbolt_crit_rate * extra_crit_damage) / talented_cast_time
DPS = frostbolt_damage * (1 + crit_rate * 1.0) / 2.5
DPS = frostbolt_damage * (1 + crit_rate) / 2.5
DPS = ( 690.06 + 0.91552041 * bonus_spell_damage) * (1 + crit_rate) / 2.5
