Its been confirmed finally and the order has been setup. I did research on the each school trying to confirm some because the problem is I tested each one of them out and the only one I'm not good at is Storm. Fire, Ice, and Life are confirmed to stay and now the last choices is kind of the midpoint between the schools on damage and health terms. Myth, Balance, or Death?
I would choose Death. Good enchanting cards, and you won't need to train up in life. They also have decent damage and health. Honestly, I picked a Death and used Storm as as a secondary. It was good, because of being able to heal and damage. But, it's based on your play style.
I also like Myth, for those two hit attacks that can take off shields then do a ton of damage. Earthquake comes in handy during PvP and sometime PvE as well. Plus, minions are helpful for a while. Even when you are a Promethean, a Talos in a 1v1 PvP can distract enemy, blade you, and do some damage as well.
Balance has decent stats as well. I love some of it's spells, like Ra, and Chimera. Hydra and Chimera will take care of those few Balance bosses you end up facing. They also get those elemental shields, which can be good, because they are basically a tower for three schools. Also get the elemental and spirit blades, which can boost Hydra and Chimera quite a bit, as well as Spectral Blast. Also has Mana Burn, which can be used against Balance bosses as well. And Weakness is a good spell to have as well. Balance isn't limited to one type of damage like the other schools. It is flexible, and good for many play styles.
Having played all 7 schools and, as the proud owner of a level 90 necromancer, I would choose Death. Valerian was the easiest to solo with, and didn't run into problems in Azteca, when the bosses and their steroid cheats just got out of control.
My first wizard was Balance~ she is also level 90, and had a very difficult time with certain cheating bosses, due to the simple fact that Balance lacks many resources that the other schools have and have had for ages, such as the ability to break shields and a spammable DoT spell. Up until level 60, it is easily the hardest school to play and requires a lot of patience.
As for Myth, I wouldn't choose it unless you plan on spending lots of time in the Arena, as they are among the undisputed lords of PvP.

Ok, I agreed with Myth that its a PvP school mostly so I decided I'm canceling it. So, Death or Balance?
Theirs always a problem for me since I done what some people said: test out all the schools. Turns out I'm not bad at any of them and that's the problem because I don't want to spend most my time on w101. I got a witchdoctor on p101 to and I'm trying to cut short due to member. Most the time I take the test in the beginning I end up with storm, fire, myth, or death.
I'm not a PvP person or well not anymore. Balance seems to be a bit more challenging due to the tower shields and weakness but I can manage around that since I have a strategy for it in the beginning. For Balance train a secondary damage school such as Fire or Storm (I usually buy a lot of Cleanse Charm TC which helps somewhat in the long run), and make sure the enemy has enough pips to attack so you don't expect any delay.
Myth eh all I need is feint maybe 1 or 2 then I'm good to go.
Btw I mentioned Myth again, I tested out like a future attack plan for higher levels, Humongofrog hit around 5,000 damage, I think that's pretty good.
I think it might be Myth or Balance again since I might confirm Death even if I'm kind of 50/50 on it.

Change of plans, I have decided to make it Death or Myth again. Ignore the previous post.
Tricky case. I can list pros and cons though. : Pros: Towers won't save your opponent(You have spells that literally break shields, and you have minotaur and orthrus), You have nice damage, you can stun severely (Medus 2 round stun, Basilisk, blinding light, stun), You have a great bag of tricks (Celestial Calendar, you're stuns, minions, shift and dimension shift, earthquake, peirce and shatter), You have wonderful minions. Cons: Low health, 2 AoEs, 1/5 of the time you fizzle, everyone wants to dispel you (Earthquake) in PvP (If you do PvP), : Pros: Drains, great accuracy, feint and doom, fair health, infection for PvP (If you do PvP). Cons: 2 AoEs, not that good damage. Just my opinion Critical Death "All schools are equal"

I have a level 11 death wizard. it is like in a way life with a twist. Healing and attacking at the same time is great. From fodder to scarecrow, death is powerful. Choose death.
