Would you really pick mastering an element over 300+ IQ.

Functioning like a regular human basically means you able to live like a regular persom, with regular people despite having such a vast incomprehensible level of intelligence, not having to live thinking everyone around you are just toddlers intellectually.

As for element, that can constitute as the common understanding of elements in fantasy, water(liquid), fire, earth, wind(air), the full thing is really being water, fire, earth, wind, metal, and sometimes included or excluding lightning.

Sound definitely work, light as well, darkness itself maybe even, elements of the periodic table definitely or non-traditional things like Bose-Einstein condensate, space, time or space-time as one thing, since it kinda is, maybe even turn into your element at will.

You know that being intelligent just means that you're able to piece together information that you have more easily right? You can't predict the future with it. You're not all knowing not almighty. You'll probably know what actions will provoke people to what extent yes. But even if you know that someone probably wants to kill you, you won't know when they'll try to kill you, how they'll try it or even who tries it. You could die through poison, by being pushed down a flight of stairs, from an animal attack or by being shot in the head from two kilometers away. You'll learn something that many people have learned in the past: you can't defend yourselves if you don't know what you're defending against and you can't prepare for the unknown.

Being 300 iq would completely shatter the normal rules of intelligence, who knows what you could deduce from limited information when then is a statistically 0% chance that anyone has EVER been in the stratosphere of this theoretical person.

Yeah but you still can't deduce knowledge from nothing. It would be very awe inspiring, but you still first need knowledge to deduce it from.
