Surprised about the apparent lack of wizards. I realize it's not the best class for grouping or solo, but it's desired in raids, it's not gear-dependent, and having ports in classic is a huge luxury. Why would this class be among the least played?

It's among the least popular on blue too. There's a stigma attached to wizards because of their low sustained dps on blue compared to other classes. I think they'll be in a lot better place on green throughout the timeline, but especially during classic (when nobody has any gear, mobs have low hit points, and there aren't druid alts around to help with ports yet) and early kunark (when wizards get some nice new spells but there still isn't a lot of great weapons floating around). And they'll still be fine during Velious, even if they don't have an easy time getting into regular groups.
I kinda was considering a gnome wizard as my main on green, but they're a too slow-paced for me and I want to be a class that groups KNOW is useful rather than one that you can convince them isn't awful.
