Dear KingsIsle, I am Brian TrollRider, a lvl 91 Balance Wizard. And I just finished Azteca. And there were a lot of balance boss battles and some were really hard such as Belloq, I was thinking that maybe you guys could add balance converts. Except it would work like the spirit blast. For example, the spirit blast chooses randomly from myth, life and death. The balance convert would choose randomly between myth life and death. The reason I chose myth life and death is because these schools boosts on balance. For example, myth converts to storm, boosting on the myth boss. Fire converts to ice, boosting onto fire, etc. This would be a great add on to the game. We balance wizards really need this because every other spell don't do much as judgement or sabertooth. For example, by the time we blade up and trap for chimera, we'll be dead. I hope you guys take this into consideration.

hi brian~
1) you can't blade at all for belloq, if you're soloing; you have to hit him every round, so converts won't do us any good. if you are soloing, just spam wand hits/enchanted spectral blasts and wear him down that way.
2) for normal (non-cheat) balance bosses, there are other methods~ i've always used shadow shrike (which you'll get at level 92) + infallible which, combined with my pierce from gear, allows me to pierce through 100% of the boss' resist and do normal damage.
2) spirit blast already exists, but it's currently a pet card only (if you have a harpy, dropped from the squid tentacles in atlantea, you can get spirit blast from it).

Spirit Blast should be standard for the Balance wizard. It doesn't make sense to have Elemental Blast but not the other. And one needs a pet to get it. That's just ridiculousl

Just wait for shrike, you're almost there! (Almost there in khrysalis terms lol). Also like dr Von said there is a pet that gives spirit blast although there are multiple problems with it. Like not being able to enchant it but if you take the pet with spirit blast to epic, you get Lycian hydra or chimera (I forgot which one). It may seem like a waste of snacks to train it to epic but you can just wait for shrike. I agree some balance fights were extremely hard to solo but I'm happy to say khrysalis is easier than Azteca. Reasons include bosses having less health, no boss masteries and not as many double boss fights. Also when you get to the end of the arcanum, you get nested fury which is op! Very very very good spell, I highly recommend it.

oh, i agree~ i'm not happy that the level 108 spell for balance was off-school damage either; we've evolved to a point that we should be able to use our own school's damage, rather than having to mess around with others.
