Well, I wasn't counting playing with fire. But I guess since we are talking about pure PvE, I probably should. Molten Fury though, that was a total oversight on my part. Not sure how it would stack up to Empowered Missiles or Mastery/ArcaneImpact/Spellpower/Potency/Instability.

I still think that if you had to pair up 40 arcane talent points with another tree, frost is the best choice. For IceBlock if nothing else, but also for all the early talent improvements to Frostbolt where the equivalents in Fire are way up at the top. And I can definitely see some raid PvE specialists going down this road.

One thing we aren't discussing though is all the crit improvements to fire in the deep part of the tree. It seems that with good gear, an Ignite team will probably do top-honors over a group spamming Arcane Blast. The question is, with 25 person raids, will we see some of the same scary ignite teams that we see now in AQ40 and Naxx?
