Visionary Storm 100% Critical and Max Damage Guide

Ah the Storm school! The hardest hitting school and the easiest school to hit 100% critical. It is also the easiest school to balance super high damage with super high critical. Storm eclipses the other schools in that department but that’s not surprising since that’s what storm is all about, hitting high while trying not to die very quickly (intended shade). Currently, there are many methods to gain high damage and max critical with this school. We’ll explore the one that gives the highest damage while maintaining 100% critical. The current highest damage storm can achieve with 100% critical is 165% damage. The critical amount goes to 842 which is 100%.

 

 

Benefits

The Storm school is the hardest hitting school in the game. This means that they can end battles really fast. They have the highest critical in the game as well as the highest pierce. Their attacks are pretty deadly if they hit you directly. They also have quite a few spells that remove blades which is pretty cool, unless you’re fighting against one of course.

Problems

With this gear build, there are just a few problems you will run into. I would say not much is sacrificed compared to the other schools since this area is Storm’s specialty. If you run this gear you will have to sacrifice pierce, and a little bit of resist but you should be fine. Some schools will have to give up these factors along with accuracy but with this build, Storm usually maintains high accuracy. The other problem that you will encounter, which is not just native to this build, is health. Storm is notorious for their low health so this gear setup just reflects that.

Visionary Myth Critical Guide

Note: This guide is created for level 130 myth wizards and requires a pet with 2.0 (max stats) to be successful.

Myth School

Myth is such an interesting school. Anyone that can take the wrath of Cyrus Drake in the first arc deserves a little respect. The myth school is not considered one of the best, but I’ve seen plenty of dangerous myth wizards when they run the right gear and strategy.

Since myth’s two main strengths are the use of minions and stuns, running a full critical set can probably break the Richter scale itself. Using a minion to keep shields off an opponent while combo hitting with stuns can make a landing critical hit terrifying for any opponent. This guide will lay out the gear to help your myth wizard reach 100% critical with the highest damage possible.

What You’ll Need

For the best setup, here is the gear you’ll need:

Hat: Mythic Paradox Conical – 140

Boots: Mythic Paradox Boots – 117

Wand: Jack Hallow’s Gourdtar – 195

Ring: Drake Ancestral Signet Ring – 84 (+ 18 Jewel)

Athame: Morganthe’s Bite – (+ 18 and +18 Jewel)

Deck: Mythic Paradox Deck – 51

Amulet: Universal Memento – 35

Robe: Quixotic Light Brigade Armor – 100

Overall Total: Damage 137% – Critical 839 (100%)

Stats like these would make Baba Yaga proud! Here’s the breakdown:

Calculations

Alternative Gear

Luckily, Myth only needs 2 critical talents in their pet to reach the 100% threshold. Because of this, there are a couple alternative pieces of gear you could replace and still maintain a full critical loadout.

Hat: Krokopatra Wonder Fez

Boots: Haughty Alphoi Boots

Amulet: Relic of the Shadow Palace (Gives +40% blade)

Athame: Dirk of Dimwood Vale

Robe: Kan Davasi Victor’s Gear

Deck: Rasputin’s Hypnotic Hand

Ring: Drake Ancestral Signet

Remember: Using these over the “best” gear loadout means you lose the maximum amount of damage you can run while keeping 100% critical.

Must Haves

– A double-critical pet

– Jack Hallow’s Gourdtar

Because of how the stats work out, myth has the luxury of replacing items to make up for loss of critical in their pet’s talents. As long as you have a pet with at least two critical talents and the Jack Hallow’s wand you can reach the cap.

Best of luck to all myth wizards!

Visionary Life Guide to 100% Critical and Max Damage

Note: This guide is created for level 130 life wizards and requires a pet with 2.0 (max stats) to be successful.

Life School

The Life school is a beautiful school. It’s one of the few schools that can do everything whether it’s tanking, healing, or hitting. Because of this there are many strategies that a max-level Life Wizard can choose for both PvP and PvE.

 
This article will focus on the 100% critical gear strategy! I will help you achieve the max amount of damage while still keeping 100% critical. This strategy is popular with Life wizards since it guarantees strong heals without giving up damage.

What You’ll Need

For the best setup, here is the gear you’ll need:

Hat: Lively Paradox Conical – 134

Boots: Lively Paradox Boots – 112

Wand: Tormentor’s Skullsplitter – 181

Ring: Lively Paradox Ring – 89 (+18 Jewel)

Athame: Dark Woman’s Dagger – (+18 and +18 Jewel)

Deck: Paradox Deck – 49

Amulet: Spirit of Darkmoor’s Jewel – 35

Robe: Ornate Light Brigade Armor – 91

Pet: A quint-critical pet – 112.32 (with life-giver and life-bringer damage talents)

Total: Damage 120% – Critical 857 (100%)
That’s a good amount of damage for running 100% critical as a Life. Here’s a breakdown of all the gear and its stats:

Calculations

Possible Alternative Gear

Note that the gear listed above totals 857 critical, and you only need to reach 838 critical to get 100%. If you can’t get the perfect max critical and damage, it’s okay! There is room for other gear to replace some of the pieces above. Here are a few I recommend.
 
Hat: Krokopatra’s Vigor Fez
 
Boots: Cabalist Stompers of the First
 
Amulet: Jewel of the Shadow Web (Gives +45% blade)
 
Athame: Spirit of Darkmoor’s Thorn
 
Robe: Undying Malistaire’s Tunic
 
Deck: Rasputin’s Deck of Fortitude
 
Ring: Mithraya Vivid Seal
 
Remember, choosing one of these over the “best” gear means you lose other stats, like damage, health, power pip chance, resist, etc…

Things You Can’t Go Without

Quint-critical pet

– Tormentor’s Skullsplitter

You can’t get around these essentials. You can replace a few pieces of gear and still get 100% critical, but not these two. They’re vital to the guide (hah, puns!). Unfortunately, the only thing that will be difficult to get is these two pieces. One is from a seasonal pack while the other requires patience and hatching skill.
 
I hope this guide helps some fellow life wizards create the perfect gear set! Let us know what pieces you choose in the comments below!

Death Guide to 100% Critical

This guide is for level 130 death wizards and may require a 2.0 pet
 

Death School

The Death school can be deadly in the arena. It’s a school that specializes in draining the enemy’s health while regaining it’s own. The death school is opposite to the life school, but their purpose is almost the same. Because they can both attack and heal at the same time, death spells deal less damage than other schools. Luckily, with the right strategy, a death wizard can become essential to any team.
 
This article will focus on one gear strategy in Wizard101, the 100% critical set. The greatest amount of damage that can run while still obtaining 100% critical will be in the gear guide. This strategy is popular with Death wizards because a critical drain attack will hit hard and heal at the same time.
 

What You’ll Need

For the best setup, here is the gear you’ll need:

Hat: Deathly Paradox Conical – 137
 
Boots: Deathly Paradox Boots – 114
 
Wand: Tormentor’s Shredder – 195
 
Ring: Deathly Paradox Ring – 91 (+18 Jewel)
 
Athame: Mercy of Shadow and Light – (+18 and +18 Jewel)
 
Deck: Deathly Paradox Deck – 50
 
Amulet: Death Seeker’s Talisman – 35
 
Robe: Baleful Light Brigade Armor – 100
 
Pet: A double-critical pet – 63.21
 
Total Damage 130% – Critical 839 (100%)
 
This is the most damage a Death wizard can have while maintaining 100% critical.

Alternative Gear

Since the Death school only needs two critical talents on a pet to reach 100%, you don’t need this exact set to reach full critical! This means you could choose gear with lower critical and higher resistance/health. All you need to do is replace the missing critical with a triple or quint-critical pet. Note that the above gear goes to 839 critical, but you need to reach 838 critical to be 100%.

Here’s some possible alternative gear to consider
 
Hat: Krokopatra’s Oblivion Fez
 
Boots: Cabalist Stompers of the Finality
 
Amulet: Shadow Queen’s Grace (Gives +45% blade)
 
Athame: Lord of Death’s Razor
 
Robe: Death Lord’s Cloak of Woe
 
Deck: Rasputin’s Wicked Hand
 
Ring: Ghost Dog’s Dire Loop
 
Remember, Using these alternatives means you lose other stats, like damage, health, power pip chance, resistance, etc.

Things You Can’t Go Without

A double-critical pet
 
 The Tormentor’s Shredder
 
Unfortunately, the Tormentor’s Shredder is a must-have for the highest damage and critical at the same time.
There are many excellent gear sets you can use as a Death wizard. This guide will help you unlock the true potential of Death school in attack. Thank you for reading it, let us know how this set up worked for you in the comments below.
