This.
Give then price of a P99 account subscription, just go ahead and try every class until you like one enough to stick with it. Sounds obvious but still.
As for mages, I played one to 60 so I suppose I have a fairly solid view of the class. Truth be told, mages aren't very useful at higher levels in a group context (the whole item summoning crap is barely ever used except maybe for a couple spells such as mask and daggers for necros/encs). A couple seconds of looking away from the screen to change the TV channel and your pet just brought a train and is wiping your group out. On raids you're basically a CoH / rod bitch. If you can find any fun in it, props to you.
But the one single deterrent to play mage is that their epic quest happens to be 1) the hardest epic in game, and 2) is pretty much class-defining. Many other classes don't have this problem because their epic is either 1) not hard to get - rog, enc, sham or 2) not class defining (nec, war, wiz, )...
There are a ton of places you can't even get around as a mage, while as an enc or necro you can just solo farm it for loot. I dunno, I might just suck at mage, too. Can a mage sucessfully farm HS? What about Seb?
But hey, as I said.. takes a minute to roll one and see for yourself
