Fire or Death Wizard?

Hello Wizards. I have one spot left on my Wizard101 account to do one more wizard. That wizard is either Fire or Death. I am leaning towards Fire at the moment but would like to bear from the Death's side. I have been playing this game for 6 years and know about each school. I tested them and both liked them. Please recommend some insights such as Wintertusk spells, shadow spells, and spell quests.

Welp, The school of Fire like to well, burn stuff doing damage over 3 rounds.

The school of Death is mostly for soloing.

Your choice!

Wrong place?

Anyway, I've heard Death is easier to solo, though I haven't played either extensively. Death also gets Feint for free, while other schools have to spend 7 training points for it.

Death is great if you solo a lot. It needs no help except on the hardest bosses and dungeons. Drain ability means you pretty much always end the battle fully healed. Death also makes a great support school when you do choose to play as part of a team, with it's ability to blade/trap for any school, heal and weaken opponents it allows you alternate roles between support and hitter as needed. Fire is really much more just a hitter. It really depends how they fit your chosen play style. I personally don't like DoT, but that's a matter of differing play styles.

Thanks everyone! I didn't like DOT about two years ago, but once Spinysaur and a few other DOT spells came out, I actually do like it. I plan on going with fire after talking to my friends as well. Later on, I may delete my Balance Wizard, but for now there will be no Death wizard.
