In Wizard101, the Balance school is a versatile and strategic school that can be very effective, especially in team play. Heres a breakdown of its strengths and weaknesses to help you decide if its a good fit for your playstyle: Strengths of Balance: Versatility Balance wizards can fill multiple roles (support, damage, or utility) depending on the situation. Strong Team Support They have access to spells like Balanceblade, Bladestorm, and Elemental/Spirit Shields, making them great for buffing allies. No School Resistance Since Balance spells deal Balance damage, no school inherently resists them (except certain bosses with universal resist). Solid AoE Options Spells like Sandstorm (Lv. 22) and Power Nova (Lv. 42) provide decent multi-target damage. Utility & Debuffs Spells like Hex, Feint (via Death training), and Mana Burn add extra control in battles. Jade Gear Potential In late-game PvE and PvP, Balance can be a great tank/support with high resist and healing. Weaknesses of Balance: No Prism Unlike other schools, Balance cant use prisms to bypass enemy resistances, making fights against Balance bosses tough. Lower Burst Damage Balance lacks the raw single-target damage of schools like Fire or Storm, so soloing can be slower. Dependent on Blades Since Balance spells have moderate base damage, youll need multiple blades (or team support) for big hits. Limited Early-Game AoE You dont get a good AoE until Sandstorm (Lv. 22), making early levels a bit slow. Best Uses for Balance: Team Play: Excellent for supporting and buffing teammates in dungeons. PvP (with strategy): Balance can be strong in PvP with the right gear and strategy (e.g., Jade Balance for tanking). Solo Play (doable but slower): Requires patience and smart deck setup, but its manageable. Final Verdict: Balance is great if you enjoy strategy, versatility, and team play. Its not the fastest solo school, but its very rewarding in group content. If you prefer high burst damage, you might find it slow, but if you like flexibility, Balance is a strong choice. Would you like recommendations for gear, pets, or secondary schools?

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
