Nothing new to say about wizzie vs necros in groups, I think that has pretty much been answered. My wizzie is almost to Seb-level, which is where I would think wizzies would start to shine. Nuke down those gating and casting mobs before they can get their spells off. Not really looking forward to the 10khp mobs, though! I think that is the only situation where a group would prefer a wizard over any other dps class, that or an AE group.

Seb is actually where everyone eschews wizards entirely. Up until then you can occasionally get groups in dungeons around the world, but once you get to Seb people shun you completely. You can barely nuke down a single mob with most of your mana bar. Stuff's just too fat.
The main problems with wizards are:
1) other classes can nuke almost as well as you can
2) nuking is the most inefficient way to spend your mana, damage-wise
3) nuking is the thing you do best
There are times when these issues are not terribly relevant - sometimes you just have to take a mob down quickly and burning out your whole mana bar doesn't matter - but most of the time this makes for a very inefficient XP group member.
