See, I love the fire wiz because I have two bolts that deal huge damage, and the best albion DD in the game, and a nice targted AoE too.
But I figure, people in RVR are going to run around with swords drawn anyway, so no bolts. And wizzies are a huge RVR target, so I'll seldom get close enough to chain cast DD's.
CBTao wants me to earth spec for GTAoE, but I like walking around with a pair of cannons 
However, in standard RvR, your single target asswhippings are your friend.
Unless mass damage is needed, all you're going to do with AoE stuff is PISS OFF THE SORCERERS.
They cannot AoE Mezz if you break it with a nuke. Same with Healers and Thanes, etc.
I guess mobs follow different rules in that regard
I know with my shaman, I have a bolt and I can hit damn near anyone with it unless they are ACTIVELY ENGAGED in melee combat with -something-

I'd go with earth spec, since you get a decent bolt spell in that line anyways.
"Decent" in terms of other bolt casters, but nothing like having two available bolts. Spec'ing fire increases the damage on your base line bolt too.
At level 14 I got two new bolts. I can usually drop an orange with just them. [ 01-17-2003: Message edited by: Maradon XP ]
After 1.59b you should probably go Ice.
