Have you learned about percentages in school yet? 25% is equal to 1/4, so one fourth of the damage of your spell is being added on. If your spell does 100 damage, and you add 25%, you get 125 damage. 20% is a little less, but that's because it's to all of your team. Once you add other blades and traps, the damage really starts to stack up...

That wouldn't be good because if you read the description on the schools it says under balance, this school has buffs to buff other schools. Imagine a balance buffing a death with a plus 40, then they use a plus 40, death trap plus 35, and feint plus 70.

That's why you get Dragonblade pets so you can REALLY stack up :D

Dude, no offense but that's just really your damage boost failing on you. I hit 1000+ BASE with Ra. Also, I have:
Balanceblade
Dragonblade
Hex
Bladestorm
So maybe I could hit 4000 with Ra, if I critical.

I am gonna say is if there is a new world soon, the need to add a blade just for balance. Not a blade that anyone can use, just balance.

I agree with you. I have a lvl 59 Balance wizard and I have done just fine with her and the blades she currently uses.

Saadkhan123, you just need to learn to use what your wizard has to the best advantage.

For 1: This is the 3rd time (i am not going in order i dont think) that i have seen you complain.
Second: 25% + 20% = 45%

Whoa there, saadkhan. You're overpowering the blades and traps... by a LOT. You just need to learn how to use enough blades and traps. So let's put a graph here:

Let's say your Balance damage increase is 20%. When you combine your blades together, you can get this:

25% + 20% + 30% + 20% = a whooping 95%! That's nearly TWICE the damage.
(Balance Blade, Bladestorm, Dragonblade, Damage Increase)

Now, I am a Balance wizard, so sometimes I do think that our blades are a bit weak. But, we can buff ANYONE. Not just Balance, anyone! If say you aren't a Balance but you have a Balance friend who gave you the same blades as above, (minus the damage increase) you get an even LARGER damage boost. Let's say your a Life in this scenario, and your Life damage increase is 20% again:

25% + 20% + 30% + 40% + 20% = 135%! That's awesome!
(Balance Blade, Bladestorm, Dragonblade, Life Blade, Damage Increase)

And that is the beauty of Balance's various blades. :)

Balance blade boosts all schools. That is why it is the lowest. So either deal with it or make a wizard of a different class. Sorry if that sounded rude it's just the way it is (plus i feel really tired and am stressed out about my upcoming auditions).
