Another magblade question [pushing the limits]

First of all, yay \m/ !!
I know, I know, some may say their crafter deals more damage, but yeah, couple of weeks ago I was stamNooB with 10-12k dps and no clue about rotation\weaving. And now I reached my first goal - 25k dps point. So yeah, be proud of me (and thanks as you helped me with the build in mah previous topic)!

What I wanted yo ask you is... how far am I pushing this particular build to it's limits? Do not get me wrong, I am farming gear to advance in my gearset, but I wanna know how effective am I with current one. So what is the approximate dps cap in this case? Some additional info:

All enchants are legendary quality. Armor - max. magicka, jewelry - spell damage, 1st weapon - fire damage ench., 2nd weapon - weapon damage ench. Both weapons are infused. My average ping is 150-200.

I wouldn't make separate topic for this, but since there are no Q&A I actually did that.
Thanks in advance, guys.
Cheers!

    Congrats. You’re getting up there, for sure. I’ll let others speak to the numbers...I don’t really pay attention to current dps max scores. But the areas I see to focus on...which will all be about squeezing tiny bits more power out of stuff rather than leaps:

    - obviously the CPs will make a big difference. But because of the diminishing returns, I’m going to ballpark estimate than a CP400 character is getting 85% of the power from the trees as a max cp character. It’s a slow, long grind, but you’re reaching a point where you’ve pulled a lot of the power out of them.

    - for Summerset you’ll have the option of a 5/5/2 setup. I’m not sure what’s going to emerge as meta on a magblade yet. I wondered if maybe two different monster pieces would trump a full set, and alcast seems to be playing with this with his magsorc (illambris plus Domihaus.) So we’ll see.

    - usually for a character at your level the undaunted passive is the next big boost...assuming you haven’t worked that up yet. If you wore a medium valkyn piece you’ll get 6% more of all resources. That should be ~2400 more max magic. That’s always the last giant power leap for my characters. It takes like 175 dailies...ugh. You might find a friend with multiple characters to run Bogrul delve missions on. That’s what my friend and I do...all my characters hold them, then we run two characters together and share/relog so we can get 8-10 in at a time.

    Firstly, thank you for the answer.
    I am using 5L 1M 1H setup and utilizing all the undaunted passives as I unlocked them long ago.
    For champion points, yes, it's more if a time and grind and I worry not about it.
    I mostly worry about two things: my rotation's and gear quality's influence on dps. In other word, what would be my dps if I rotated perfectly? Would it raise tremendously? And how would upgrading all body pieces to legendary affect the dps? Will it make huge 4-5k difference or just slightly boost it for few hundreds?
    This might be the weird questions, but I really want to make sure my dps won't be lowered due to such simple mistakes.
