For almost 17 months now fire has been getting more damage and even critical then storm. Kingsisles reasoning for this is that dots need more damage then single hits which they already did before the fire boast. And also ice is getting more damage then storm on a wand, yes, ice! Storm has changed from being the damage/critical school to the "jack of half the trades"(damage critical and pierce are good but not best health block and resist are awful) school. There have been many threads about this such as http://www.wizard101central.com/foru...S-(Fire-Storm)http://www.wizard101central.com/foru...vP-perspectivehttp://www.wizard101central.com/foru...P-perspective)http://www.wizard101central.com/foru...-the-Rat-wands! and http://www.wizard101central.com/foru...downward-slide. NOTHING justifies fire having more damage then storm. I assume fire will soon have more pierce then storm as well. That would mean fire has more of everything then storm eradicating storm from the game. So kingsisle, STOP NERFFING STORM!!!!! Moolinda Wu Professor Falmea Professor Greyrose Cyrus Drake Halston Balestrom Headmaster Ambrose Arthur Wethersfield and Dworgyn why do you all do this to poor storm?

You are right, the storm school over time has begun to slowly lose its unique talents and stats that used to define and distiniguish us from others. But with that in mind, I haven't personally met many storm wizards who complain about it either, they just kinda put their heads down and moved on. If Kingsisle did it, I believe it was justified so while I wouldn't mind seeing change, sometimes you just gotta learn to adapt.

Yup, that is Kingsisle's plan for Storm as we progress further into the 3rd arc. It's totally unfair and takes away any uniqueness that Storm had, and I am completely against it.

I think Storm will continue to have more pierce than Fire though. I noticed that 3rd arc gear gives Storm more resist (ironically), pierce, and critical than Fire.

I think we need to find ways to take matters into our own hands.(sounds crazy I know but 65 million people can do a lot of stuff and those 65 million are the players of wiz and pirate)

Truly I tried storm and got a storm to Avalon, and I hated it. HATED IT. Don't know why but storm felt boring and annoying to play. So I deleted the storm completely and made a fire and I have had a blast. Either way from what I have heard, storm is supposed to be based more around critical and fire is supposed to be more based around damage. Its just because of triple crit pets or something that people try for and certain pieces of crit gear that fires farm for that make them have more critical. Trust me, even though they may have more crit than a storm sometimes have you seen their damage? 80 fire damage or 75 or 85. Its not good. They are supposed to go for more damage and less critical. Either way fire is the new storm in my opinion. Its way more fun, does about the same damage and has way more interesting moves like bull and rain of fire to sue than storm.
