It's Fire / Physical, with fire part being over 90% of total damage of the spell.

Why? There are so much fire resistant / immune common enemies that it isn't really an overkill, even when accounted for the damage.

Considering it's mana cost you can put up several Guardians as an alternative. True, they won't do as much burst damage, but can in the end do even more damage than Apocalypse, while you will stay safe behind a wall.

Other mass Fire damage spells are unreliable.
Firewall shines on lower levels, but hell onwards it's hardly usefull.
Flamewave is useless. It's mana cost should be cut in half to even consider using it.
Meteor Swarm deals damage in unpredictible manner, and I have found more complete item sets than it's spellbooks (33 lvl).
This leaves us with underleveled Fireball and occasionally Apocalypse when Fireball is not enough.

Meteor is very good spell because it does physical splash damage.
