So these cast proc for a small amount of damage fit in that same area they they do for melee, a small amount of extra damage in a slot you are likely to get anyway. For melee they got it for damage, for casters you got it for stats, but the "small extra damage" part was woefully lacking.Even setting aside Bale and Brimstone and Lilac a reasonably accessible proc is Time Lapse 750dd. Even with lost swings from casting and very low CE values from having no CE on current Int Caster only items you're still looking at 2/3 of a proc per minute (average focused cast time twice as long as global refresh) an average proc for max AA Wizards runs in the 1100-1150 range depending on Spell Damage mod so 750ish damage from the proc per minute or 12.5dps.
If it's intended to me more than we had before it needs to be increased. A 50% increase would put it above Time Lapse and a 200% increase would put it above Bale and Brimstone.
More than you have had in recent expansions.
