Hey guys, I didn't wanna post this in the theorycrafting thread as it's full enough as is.

I'm apping to a guild that's currently just downed Kael and Rage Winterchill, and are thus working their way up to Archimonde and soon BT. My question to you guys is this:
I have gear that fits a 10/48/3 spec better than arcane (maxed spell hit). The majority of their raiding mages are specced Arcane, so I can see CoE not being a likelihood in their raids. Should I spec arcane even though I do not possess 2 piece t5? I *do* have a helm with a meta gem slot (Merc gladiator) so I could probably get away with Arcane Missile spam and toss in an AB after every missiles.

I also do have the Lightning Capacitor in my inventory to utilize. However using Vontre's spreadsheet it says I'll be doing more damage as fire in the gear I'm using but I'm worried about the lack of support from Warlocks. That and the first raid I'll be doing with them is likely to be TK and I don't feel like being the slack in a fight with A'lar.

Here's a rough estimate of my stats since I'm currently specced ice for PvP:
1050ish Arc/Fire damage
~30% to crit without molten armor
~12% to hit not including elemental precision
Very little spirit (only getting spirit from Mantle of the Elven Kings)

So, fire or arcane in this situation?
