firestorm takes a while to build up and the whole time you're being attacked, also certain attacks can break the charge and you have to start over. However it does make a nice big pretty blast that looks cool.

Fireball has a small area of effect and is launched from a distance, it's damage is weaker than firebolt2 but works better against a group of enemies.

I did a mage and found that squishiness wasn't an issue so long as I was running around like a chicken with its head cut off while spamming spells. It's the old greek mantra "speed is armor"
