The tooltip shows this (again by using Theorycraft) and since it also displays the damage range, wich infact is very acurate (i tend to hit for 2-3 higher then the max shown on the tooltip @ times, but that must be becouse the percentages where rounded down somewhere)

Pre 1.11 Blizzard also stated that they wanted to make AM (Arcane Missiles) a more viable damage spell, and that each wave was capable of triggering on spellhit effects, wich (especially for aliance) made the spell more usefull.

Due to the high mana cost and low dps it currently is an alternative spell to cast on clearcast for me, gotta love a mana free 5 wave spell triggering Judgement of Wisdom (chance to refund 59 mana on a spellhit on the target) a couple of times

Rank 8
Launches Arcane Missiles at the enemy, causing 230 Arcane damage each second for 5 seconds.

wich is (without damage gear) a total of 1100 damage
