Which school should my new wizard be?

I have a grandmaster death, archmage life, and a transcendent storm. I've been thinking of fire, or ice. I've been leaning towards fire due to the fact spells like scald could easily eliminate shields. But Ice wizards can have a large amount of health, and resistance. I don't know what school my next wizard should be. Which school should I pick for my new wizard?

Well fire in my opinion is the worst school. I hate it. The fact that a lot of the spells do their damage over time, while opponents can shield or kill you infuriates me. So what you should be thinking is how much patience do you have? Can you sit through PvE battles lasting 10 minutes? Or do you wanna finish quick and move on?

As a proud Pyromancer, I take offense to that. We have plenty of powerful one-hits you know. Also, DoT is pretty helpful for getting rid of shields and a good Rain of Fire can do over a thousand damage every turn to all enemies. Helpful for killing an enemy with a shield.

Still, to each his own. I personally hate Life. Little damage, only one AaE and too many heals.

I would choose Balance. It's hard to master but it pays off if you stick with it.

I personally like the best. But you chose what you like.
