Back in the early days of EQ, mages were really misunderstood. People just didn't recognize the value in having mage dps in a group.
Instead, people were always looking for the holy trinity (tank, chanty, cleric) followed up with backup healers such as a shammy, which also has slow, and/or a druid for ports and snare.
It was absolute hell getting or starting a group as a mage. Now, those all mage groups were absolutely devastating and tons of fun.
