This is a solid Arcane build, except for the two points in Meditation which are certainly guaranteed to stop working at some point.
An interesting set of choices.  Combustion, as Bob the Beholder pointed out, loses out frequently to Presence of Mind when you compare the two.  Combustion guarantees you +50% damage and +40% burn damage from ignite: PoM gives you a whole other spell for virtually +100% damage on a cooldown two minutes shorter. Combustion-Blast Wave is fun, but this build doesn't include Blast Wave.
