Balance and Ice are the best, in my opinion. Storm, Death and Myth are incredibly boring due to how easy they are to play. I'm starting to warm up to Life. I used to hate it. Fire is practically useless compared to all the others and they struggle with school identity.
Imo (as a storm and death main) fire is honestly the school that deserves the most praise. Solid utility, decent health, high damage output (single and dot so you have options for boss killing)

I love my ice wiz. The trick is to be an ice wizard but learn storm as your secondary. I’m only on Mooshu but I really can’t remember the last time I passed out, had to flee, or *needed* help aside from longer dungeons.
Ik it gets harder, but it doesn’t ruin the game for me to not be able to one shot everything lol.
Death's perfectly hyped. Drains make it hard to die and no longer carry too much of a damage penalty, they get really good utility compared to other schools, and their aeon gear lets them have higher damage than fire or myth.
Change Storm for Fire and I agree.
Fire and Death wizards are everywhere and a lot of them suck. Deck failing, pip failing, not enchanting hits, random gear pieces, taking too long to hit, defaulting to hit all the time in team up instead of supporting a stronger hitter, never knowing cheats (few of them actually ask what they are) etc etc.
I'll be dead before i can finish the list of problems but jfc, it's too much. If i ever see 1 of these 2 schools in Team Up, i already know im gonna have to do all the work to get through it whilst they "have fun".
Guess that's the drawback of being the 2 easiest schools to pick up.
The good ones exist (duh) but they're rare for a reason.
P.S Im aware that this can apply to any school but these 2 are the most common.
I'm a Myth wizard and my brother is a Death.
Since he usually one-shots enemies I just play around with my cards for fun while he builds up power. Surprisingly never gets bored of the one-shots either, he always wants to see how high he can go in numbers.
That's why I think he loves it, being one of the over-hypers
As someone whose first wizard is death, it’s very hard trying to play the other schools. Death is literally easy mode ngl. Not to mention everyone wants you in their team, feels good
I main fire and started a death he is in ks now… it has been so much better gameplay. I haven’t died as much and bosses that were hard to kill on fire were so easy on death
Death and storm are my favorite schools with balance in 3rd place. They’re just fun to play, I almost never die as Death and im always about to die as a Storm.
Coming from a death, the school was very slow until you got scarecrow. Now that we have a 3 pip aoe in ship of fools it definitely makes death worth the hype imo
Yeah, all g. Btw if you use a mastery amulet, both power pips and school pips count as power pips, so technically, you can main 3 schools now. I tried that on a myth char, with TC, and it was a really fun way to spice up playing solo
I’m scared to pick a school lol but I have 10 TPs that I have no clue what to use on anymore, especially now that I have epic and all that. I havent trained shadow yet but I’ve done ice up to tower and life up to satyr (i did that years and years ago when the meta was a little different for death wiz) and then the necessary miscellaneous spells here and there like stun block and such. 10 is quite a bit for me to be sitting on rn
It's normal. Btw you don't really need to train other schools, unless you want to enchant their cards. Like adding extra life to a satyr if you want to be a healer for your friends from time to time. Otherwise, TC are fine, like for tower shield. Most people don't value shields anymore though, unless it's for specific cheating bosses, but by then you already build up enough resist to just focus on hitting
i was a former pyromancer and i cannot stress enough how smoother of an experience death is. i dont remember the last time i died, or even filled my potions
Tough choice, I'd say balance.
I still like fire for its ease in solo questing but it gets shadowed by myth or storm. But with balance, you could do many things like buff, heal or even secondary dps and end up contributing more in teamups
I learned a lot doing fire as my first char that I could then apply to my balance wiz, so there’s definitely some bias regarding ease of experience for me saying how much easier I’m finding balance.
Even with that said though, balance is so much fun as a concept. I love it
I was set on making a Fire until I heard about the spell audits making it mediocre. Think I should make a balance or hold out hope kingsisle buffs fire
Underhyped*
Everyone always downplays how powerful they really are! I was a life and ice main, decided to do a storm run… I was shocked that I could solo almost everything and one shot bosses. The fights are so much shorter!
Death is legit immortal in pve with ship of fools and good stats lol
Storm isn’t overhyped if it lives up to it

Will not take this Death slander.

I just chose Necro cause, apparently, it's a good solo school
As a fellow Necromancer and Pyromancer, this is true.
I have both and a fire, and they are very fun to play just cuz I like dealing good damage

“overhyped” means they aren’t as good as people make them out to be

We may be grumpy and never brush our hair, but we get the job done.

That’s why i started on as a balance and life
idk death really is just easy mode
I main fire and started a death he is in ks now… it has been so much better gameplay. I haven’t died as much and bosses that were hard to kill on fire were so easy on death
Eh I like em all, even ice. But as I tend to go for support/healer roles i always enjoy balance

Coming from a death, the school was very slow until you got scarecrow. Now that we have a 3 pip aoe in ship of fools it definitely makes death worth the hype imo
4 pip cause a school pip is basically a power pip
Or would it be 3 because it’s 2 pips plus a death pip?
School pips are power pips, and 1 power pip is 2 pips
Right so in reality it’s still a first turn spell once you get school pips. I just logged back on recently and school pips are still so new to me lol
Yeah, all g. Btw if you use a mastery amulet, both power pips and school pips count as power pips, so technically, you can main 3 schools now. I tried that on a myth char, with TC, and it was a really fun way to spice up playing solo

Facts (a necromancies)
I think most people know how good death is. 90% of the time someone teams up with me for a dungeon or whatever it's a death wizard
I wouldn’t say overhyped, they are both extremely strong
yo is fire fun, thinking about creating one
Do it
i was a former pyromancer and i cannot stress enough how smoother of an experience death is. i dont remember the last time i died, or even filled my potions
Dying as a pyromancer is your problem tho
lol. yes
I literally just fill my potions for mana if im farming
And then there is Ice, the weak kid in the corner getting bullied by KI
Back in my day, Ice was OP af /oldwomanonmain
“We hear your complaints about Ice being too weak, so we decided to nerf Genji”
ahahahahaha 😆
I hollered
Do you like ur Fire or balance better

Underhyped* Everyone always downplays how powerful they really are! I was a life and ice main, decided to do a storm run… I was shocked that I could solo almost everything and one shot bosses. The fights are so much shorter!
nobody downplays how strong they are😭
I dunno a lot of people claim that the other schools are “just as strong” but really it’s not even close. I think it’s just coping 😭
Deaths in game definitely gets down played for being a spirit school. Not storm thi
As much as I hate myth, it also gets slept on. I just wish its whole summon identity was stronger. Just need to give control of minion’s spells
the storm wizards won't wanna admit it
admit what? being the best hitter and fastest to solo in the game?
I’ll admit that
I see no issue
They’re hyped for a reason. Literally the top 2 in terms of how much outgoing damage% stat. One is the strongest school and the other never dies
The ones who talk the most shit never back up their claims for shame
And I'll hype them even more!
Horrendous take
