Storm School is too overpowered

Hello.
I think storm is too overpowered.
Let's compare storm with fire (the 2nd strongest school):
* Rank 5:
Fire: Phoenix: 515 - 595
Storm: Stormzilla: 650 - 730

Stormzilla is 135 stronger than Phoenix.
That may be a low value, but lets examine the character stats that each school can get at level 70.

*Storm: Storm wizards can reach 90% of damage boost from their clothes / athames / rings (and pet).
*Fire: Fire wizards can reach 64%, if they get nice damage boost from pets.

Now let's see their spells again:

Stormzilla: 730 + 90% = 1387
Phoenix: 595 + 64% = 976

Now let's examine their blades:

Storm: Stormblade +30%, Elemental Blade +35% and Supercharge (that can reach +140% if they use 7 power pips)
Fire: Fireblade +35%, Elemental Blade +35%

Now let's see their spells again:

Stormzilla: 1387 + 30% + 35% + 140% = 5842
Phoenix: 976 + 35% + 35% = 1779

I think storm is too overpowered.
Storm wizards can get the higher damage stats and already get an super blade?
They doesn't need that!

Ok, i know a lot of storm wizards will tell me i am crazy or i need to create a storm wizard too, but i just want some super blades for other schools too.

Something like that:
Life: +7% per pip (40% accuracy)
Balance: +8% per pip (50% accuracy)
Fire: +9% per pip (20% accuracy)
Ice: +6% per pip (45% accuracy)
Death: +55% (1 pip)
Myth: +50% (1 pip)
*Changing Supercharge: +10% per pip (40% accuracy - storm already has nice storm accuracy boost and can make it almost 70%))

That is my idea.
I hope you like, Professor Greyrose. :)

ice needs a better blade since ice has the least damage it should be 15% per pip.

Lol, Storm can be overpowered or weak, it's the player that makes the difference.....

Example: Two Transcended Storm wizards are in a 1v1. One has a strategy: Use shields, blade, and while the other wizard is clearing them, hit him with several Colossal Krakens. The other one just wants to chain Leviathan. Easy to shield, easy to counter, easy to kill. If you've been beaten by Storm one time too many, just try this: Train for Tower Shield and Volcanic Shield, and use those when fighting a Storm, you should have been more prepared. Also, Utility Spells are high accuracy by nature, there shouldn't be an exception. I am getting a little tired of people picking on Diviners, try making one and doing a Ranked 1v1 against an Ice Warlord who spams shields, then you might know a little bit more about Storm.
