Every school has its strong and weak points. For fire, some of them include:
Strong:
+With damage over time, you can easily break shields, and the damage does eventually add up. +Fire is, overall, the second strongest school in the game.
Weak:
-With damage over time, it makes it very hard to trap. Spells like feint are only useful for 1 hit spells, like Helephant, but aren't very good for spells like Heckhound or Scald. -Fire has the second lowest base health and the second lowest base accuracy.

Calm down. Fire still has second lowest health, ask an expert. Just because YOU have 'higher' health doesn't mean anything.
A few words of wisdom: All schools of the Spiral have their strengths and thier weaknesses. For no school is better than the other. Each school has a their own strategy and each wizard has their own twist to it. For no wizard is stronger than another but a group of 4 wizards from different schools, with different strategy, and very different personalities, are undefeatable.

I think we hear that a lot, and know that by now. :|
please, allow me, Paul IronFlame, level 50 grandmaster PYROMANCER to help settle this discussion. fire is not, in any way, weak. look at the damage dealt by a fire dragon (440+351 over 3 rounds to all enemies) to storm lord (690 and stun to all enemies) the result: dragon deals 791. storm lord deals 690. dragon deals 101 (ironic, dont you think?) damage more then storm lord. but why am i saying this? if we could work together and NOT fight about this, and finally come to terms with the fact that all schools are equal (dragon may deal more damage, but it doesnt stun!) we could finally accomplish anything we want, without our beliefs of who is better. anyway, cya in the spiral!
thank you bionaknight, i suppose this is settled unless anyone else has objections, i suppose its not the best but still, in my eyes, not the worst at anything like any other school
I have something to say to this. Yes, fire dragon does deal more base damage, but it's extremely hard for fire dragon, and other Damage over Time spells, to take the full advantage of traps. The fact that storm lord does 690 damage in ONE hit makes it easier to be stronger than fire dragon.
I'm only saying that because I do believe that storm school is in fact STRONGER than fire school, but stronger does NOT mean better.
Like you said, each school has advantages and disadvantages. I would never say that any school is better than another.
I would also like to say that, strength-wise, fire school is very strong, and as most would say, including myself, is the second strongest school in the game. :)
well most fire wizards should know that fire has less health (not the least) and a slightly lower accuracy (not the worst) Scarlet RedThorn grandmaster fire Chris DeathBringer magus life lvl 34
yes, not the worst or least so technically not a flaw in my mind
Let's put it this way. Having a D is not the lowest grade possible, but it's still bad. Having an F is worse, but having a D is still bad. That's how it is with Fire's life and accuracy; bad, but not the worst, therefore it's still a flaw/weakness.
] i find that insulting. i have been able to beat grandmasters in 5 schools that mastered their secondaries. not bragging or anything.
Sorry you find it insulting, but what I said about Fire is true, especially the PVP part. I have the experience playing through them and against them. Many GM's from all schools and many retired. The reality of the PVP world is just that, fire is a weak school in PVP. If you have competent players on both sides, fire is at a disadvantage. Look at the all the decent/major PVP tourneys that happen, how many are won by fire, a big fat zero. How many in the finals, semis, or the quarter finals even, zero. Reality is what it is, until someone can figure out a strategy to make fire competent, it will remain the whipping boy in PVP.
As for PVE, you can find many, many fire school and other GM's that will back up what I say. Heck even in the Pyromancers club there are a ton of people who love fire but will tell you the same thing. As I said before, it is what it is.
