It seems to me that all bosses are storm so wouldn't that be like the worst school to have for story line purposes. Another would be Balance or Fire because I see a lot of those types of bosses too. State what you think the best school to be would be and the worst and why. I think Storm worst Life best.

I have a Grandmaster Storm(Sabrina Stormrunner) and I have to disagree about storm being worst. I had a little rougher time with the same school bosses but my storm rocks! I know I always have people asking me to help with Malistaire. Storm packs quite a hefty punch. No one ever turns me down when I ask if I can join their battles lol.

But to each his own and I do respect your opinion.

Good luck.

Have you noticed that you have a spell in your spellbook called a prism? Look into it. Good luck.

What you said is true but that isn't my poin. My point is that it gets annoying having a BUNCH of storm bosses. I mean it seems 1/2 the boss battles I have are storm bosses.

Actually there is ALOT more myth bosses and fire bosses than storm. What you do not see a lot are storms except in GH. In DS and MS and Krok and in WC are not alot of storms. Myth and Fire bosses are mostly common. I forgot the tomb of storm so cross Krok off list.

Heck, your lucky to be storm. Storm is like the overlord! I have not noticed a lot of storm bosses in DS. If your going to be sorry for someone, be sorry for ice. Almost EVERY monster in krok is ice. Most of all the spiders in DS, ice. AND you need to fight those ice guys to pass your quest. I mean, ridiculous!

Not true. Only one place in Krok is mostly Ice, that's the Krokosphinx. have you not noticed that the three main part of Krok focus on the three Elemental Schools? The Pyramid is Fire, the Krokosphinx is Ice, the Tomb of Storms is, of course Storm.

If you know how to stack your deck, even if you are fighting the same school, it's really not so bad. I've played every wizard type all the way to Grand(some 2-3 times, made new wizards) and can honestly say that the game is pretty fair and even as far as types of monsters you have to battle that are same school. Also, remember, if you are Ice, at least you DO have a prism...Balance doesn't, so that is even more challenging to fight same school(especially since the spells they give you to use against balance often get blocked by Balance monsters' shields and you obviously don't want to use straight Balance spells on them either,) and there are quite a few Balance monsters and bosses...more than you realize.

Also, as for the spiders in DS; Most of the quests you are given to kill spiders in the Crystal Grove can actually be taken care of with killing the Storm Spiders. I actually prefer to fight the Storm spiders, even with a Storm wizard, because the Storm Spiders don't use Tower Shields.

By the way, I, for one get really tired of seeing these threads where someone feels the need to beat on a school. It's really lame. Every school has a strength, and every school has a weakness. It shows how good of a player you really are if you can handle both sides of any/every school. So, the OP here, really you need to learn to use your school better and enjoy it, stop complaining. THERE IS NO BEST OR WORST SCHOOL.

In a way we are all right, I just think KI needs to balance out the boss schools a bit more.

About a year ago, my very first wizard was a Storm wizard.

I loved storm. It is incredibly powerful, and can make some VERY quick work out of monsters.

I agree, with Storm monsters, especially bosses, you'll have to be a bit more "strategic." Use prisms if you have them available, if not, simply whiddle away at them and keep yourself healed. Eventually, you'll have won the fight.

I managed to defeat the Storm bosses in Krokotopia with my Storm wizard. Also, you'll have the spells of your secondary school as well.

Well I know THAT every school is the best in different ways. You just aren't getting my point KI needs to balance out the bosses from each school so nobody is complainig about this. I really don't like complaining about this subject I am just telling KI something that needs to be fixed.

exactly that is why they need to balance it out... so there are 7 (soon to be 10) schools right, if there were 70 bosses in Wizard City than there should be 10 of each school. THAT is my point actually doing the math and finding out how many there should be.

OK just to make it clear so we can end this subject. All schools are equal but bosses need to be evened out when it comes to there school type.

!n my opinion there is no worst or best school it just depends on your needs,
Balance-group play,and a little bit of everything.

Ice-a purly defencive school.
Storm- defently a ofencive school, low acurecy
Fire-They can do damge over time
Life- They can heal others,basicly ice,high acurecy
Myth- They focuse on summoning and protecting minnons.
Death- They can steal health,good class for soloing

Yes like storm is good for fighting, ice shielding people and fighting, life healing and so on so forth.
