Fire is the best pve spec, dot + lots of crits.
Main problem is servabilty sucks so pvp is tough and some people struggle with questing 4 this reason.

ice is maid 4 pvp its mostly about survivability, but they are good 4 aoe, if u practice u can kill 7 mobs easy and not get hit once. Easy 4 questing 4 a combo of those 2 reasons but not as good as fire/arcane at direct dps.

Arcane is 4 endgame
Manna regen while casting + manna free moves works wonders on long boss fights. Most of the spec is 4 boss fights but u gets some nice resistance talents, imp cs and armour etc 4 pvp.

Obviously ice> arcane 4 pvp but its still nice 2 be able 2 do pvp and raid.
One downside 2 arcane is arcane explosion is probably the weakest aoe on the game so u go to get some skill in using all the class aoe in the wrong spec.

Other than that there’s not really anything else 2 say all the specs r good u just have 2 adapt them 2 your play style.
