Ok so that being said, is it even really worth having? I mean I guess it means a slight bit more dps in the long run, but is it really worth taking the points out of improved blink/improved explosion?
Why would you need to take points of those talents?
Only reason i find is that you dumped them in something really useless.
This
is how my build looks like (or any pve arcane mage for that metter) is yours different?
All that said, whats better than master of elements?
Imp cspell - pvp
Invocation - no spell interrupts on pve bosses
Imp polymorph - cant poly anything at bosses, adds included
Nether Vortex - may be useful when solo grinding, but is utterly useless in pve raid environment, bosses arent affected* by it and you get your TTW bonus of any tank (judgement of the just, thunder clap, infected wounds, frost fever) and some dps (shamans, dks etc)
Improved Fireblast - shouldnt be using that one anyway
Shatter/Early frost - you dont use frostbolt or frost nova bosses are you?
Master of elements is free mana, beats all these talents.
* - they arent immune, you can still apply the slow icon, it just doesnt do anything beside looking.
And Fire Power - The only fire spell you use is flame orb, no point in boosting the 1 spell thats fire that you use as arcane when you can take improve blink or improved arcane explosion.

Random Anecdotal evidence time!
Mage
on my server. One of the best horde side guilds.
WoL
pull from 25H FL run.
2% of his damage is from Flame Orb. Little over 2 mil. Getting 2% more on that is
44k damage
. Add in hypothetical detonation from talent, and its 60-70k damage. Total. Added.
If Imp Blink gets you like 1 good AB, its already a better investment of talent points.
I actually dont run Master of Elements on my mage, I don't see much of a problem with dps or mana tbh.
Granted I don't do the mana management well, or even right at all half the time, but thats from burn-out/getting benched for my resto sham.
Sometimes I'm one of the only ones with half a damn brain, when I know a fight from reading on either wowhead or tankspot for 5 minutes before the raid better than my RL who's been studying it for a week or something.
