Been debating between wizard and mage for the longest time. Wizards seem harder to play, without a pet to protect them and being limited in leveling to select quad kiting zones, but wizards at least seem stackable in a raid setting.
With 32k hp raid targets in classic and Kunark, wizards are really good. Velious really sees mob hps jump a lot. So wizards are still viable, but a lot less impactful than before. Melee dps that doesn't rely on a mana pool (plus velious weapon ratios) is gonna pull ahead for the long haul fights.
