God, life has come so far. I remember the PAIN of life soloing up through Old Azteca, which ice was better back then imo compared to old life. Also love how Myth has become the epitome of, "be careful who you call ugly in middle school". The free golem minion is honestly goated at lower levels to generate free pips and possibly one shot certain mobs while you hit with a troll or cyclops. Rare Moments like that nade myth temporarily the fastest clear school with the right luck, but alas nothing lasts forever. :( sadge they become so useless shortly afterwards. Also the stuns were super cool, but dang all those stun immune bosses
@@Firestarter_101 very much so, I hope they buff ice so much more. 😬 I think the only thing really stopping them though is how OP ice can be in arena, sadly... Great video! Great hearing new opinions, and you keep it fair!
Ice was absolute torture up until level 100, after darkmoor gear it was some of the most fun I’ve had in this game, you’re pretty much invincible with how tanky you are. I’ve had moments where I’ve had to afk in a solo boss fight to like go to the bathroom or get groceries from the car and I come back and I’ve barely lost any health 😂. I think max ice’s command a lot of respect considering how much of a grind it is to get there and having 15k health + 70 resist is always fun
I really like the Life school, the healing that it provides is quite nice. :) I also have a Balance wiz. I know that Balance isn't that great, but I always enjoyed playing as things that anyone rarely uses, makes me feel a bit unique. 😛
I played storm first as a kid and now I've picked it for my first time questing through the story as I honestly just like the high risk. The glass cannon nature of it just makes me feel like I'm playing Kingdom Hearts on Critical mode where I can just get totally wiped if I'm not careful but if I make the right decisions I'm unstoppable.
My current maxes are Death and Fire. I’m currently working on Life, who is in Novus, and my other four Wizards are in Polaris. Once I beat the game as Life, I will move on to Myth, which I am incredibly excited for!
you also forgot the off school hits spectral, tribunal, hydra, chimera, scales of destiny, nested fury and nested fury, and rainbow serpent which does storm damage also balance can use all blades and balance can dual school
If wizard101 was 2x more difficult. It would be the perfect game. I want elden ring difficulty wizard101 where you surpass people who are stuck on boss fights constantly.
I do agree with ur top 3, however i heavily disagree with ur bottom placements. Balance is not the worst school with their really good health pool and good dmg output. They have a really good rank 4, that u get in krok, and a top tier rank 7, but yea balance on balance is a struggle especially in the earlier arc 2 world. Balance’s placement fluctuates as u progress tbh since ur stats will be changing on gear upgrade. From arc 3 to max with darkmoor to 170 gear, balance on balance isn’t that much of an issue anymore since u start getting reliable pierce. I’d still put it above ice fire and life for its options/dmg plus its support ability. Ice isn’t complete unusable garbage with the frost giant buff but like it’s still the worst rank 7 in the game plus u are scraping by every fight with ur shit dmg. And fire below life for the same for the same reason u mentioned their rank 7 split into that half dot shit, before when archmastery was bugged and rat spin was just unreliable, there was an argument fire fire above life cuz of meteor, but with the recent update u can use ur school pips now so life can use its rlly good rank 4. Since forest lord has really good base dmg and it does more dmg with feint stacking than just dragon’s hit + dot, but fire does have incredible pierce
Can see your perspective on Balance and I'll trust your word since my perspective on Balance is basically just Arc 2 and I've heard about the school just getting better with Nested Fury. Case with Life is a bit similar, you are a D1 Fire hater though 😭. In all seriousness though I hope they end up doing something that at least gives the option for Fire players to convert their DOTs through spellements because it makes Fire more ass than it should be and they're even changing decent Fire spells into ass DOTs. Lowk might be a controversial opinion but when KI forces more barriers and school identity into stuff that's not even competitive like PvE it just makes the schools more unfun. Anyways, done yapping about how much I hate KI. Happy you agree with the top 3, those rankings (especially #1) are pretty universally agreed on 💀.
@@Firestarter_101 yea ofc. Typically death storm and myth, are commonplace where they are. Regarding balance, u get that darkmoor gear and u get like, 25 pierce or something, then balance gets less walled by other balance enemies. Nested fury is good and all but, unless u are running 4 piece shad gear from da hunhussy (like me 💅) shad hits are unreliable, so ur go to would still be power nova. Ider a specific balance boss having more than like 40 res anywhere. U won’t pierce through it all but u will actually crack like 110 dmg granted u have the good gear. With pve fire, I mean fire is my first ever experience/max since 2011 so it’s like my og. Questing with dragon was good, it did a lot and it is the most damaging rank 7 by far, but waiting 2 day shipping with prime for the ots to pop is kinda what neuters it. It’s cuz, after questing on the storm: seeing the different between storm lord and dragon’s hit+ ot was just a huge night and day difference.
Storm if you like going really fast Fire if you like going fast, but not dying as often Ice if you want a challenge and/or hate yourself Balance if you have a consistent team Myth if you want some utility in pair with damage Life if you want to lean towards support with some damage potential Death if you want a bit of everything and maintain ok damage
Since this is a problem I'm going to go ahead and say it. There is a person who has been dealing with a problem for a long period of time. And there are people being instructed not to listen to that person and to treat them like anything. And they will sit there mocking the person. We also have people jumping on accounts and trying to child lock them or completely take them away.
Ha i got Snappy Gryphon from Sinbad pack and my Balance has 10 & 10 Balance and Death damage and hes well equipped. Snappy gives me 18 Balance Crit , its too good not to use. Also im going to train it despite being first gen , just cause it has naturally best talents in pool.❤
You can find someone who has a quint damage snappy gryphon to lend pretty easily, I have one that I can lend if you want to meet in game. Better to have a bunch of Balance/Uni damage as opposed to Death damage and some crit
You guys need to be balance in your wizards. Each school is a part of the pie of magic. Mix it up to be strong. Stop trying to be a pure school. It's your game too.
@@Firestarter_101 I just started my balance and got nova, few days ago it used to do aoe without me selecting each enemies but after few days I have to select each enemy one by one 🤦
@@narayanr3106 Did you by any chance use Spellments on Power Nova? Path B turns it into a Split spell which is VERY bad, reset Nova to its original and use Path A (top path) instead
I respect your opinion but it's less of Ice being bad and more of other schools just being better. Ice isn't awful to play but it's a fact that it's slower to quest up than other schools on this list and that Life can basically just be Ice plus heals. Barrage gives you good damage that's true but unless you're running gear that gives shad rating the RNG makes them unreliable. Arc 1 Ice is also rough, you can optimize Ice by getting a good pet with a Blade that can make up for no Blade until 38 but this vid was also meant to help beginner players as well who likely wouldn't have access to good pets as soon as Arc 1.

Azteca and above storm gets tapped on the first round by every boss before even getting the chance to do anything 😂
It do be like that sometimes 😭
Tbh I bassicly solo all of lit with exclusion of certain fights with my storm and it was fun quick and not bad at all
We did it, balance mains. We got last place!! Woooo!

Fr! Glass Cannon in Wiz is sm fun.
The reason for that is cause of the gear being difficult nowadays life can hit for 30k easily
Death and Fire is the best for starting imo
Death by far through. Very good video!
Yeah both are solid choices! Death def takes the cake LOL. Ty for the nice comment :3

max death and fire as well
Yeah it's def alot better than it used to be!

Thank you Matt!

storm game play temp blade temp aura blade temp did i mention temp oh just temp lol

and storm also fizzles 10 times in a row and dies in 3 hits lol kill or die
