As a wizard main, it's undeniably and unarguably wizards.
Quick math:
Most mana efficient spell - Sunstrike
1615 damage for 450 mana
That's 3.6 Damage per mana
Mana per tick at 60: 21
Mana per second = 21 / 6 = 3.5
3.5 * 3.6 = 12.6 sustained damage per second as a level 60 wizard
Even if you're pulling 1 mob a minute, the wizard is doing 756 damage total to that mob at a laughably slow pace. I.e. 11% of a KC Hand every minute. Not including resists.
The top druid nuke has a mana efficiency of 3.2 damage per mana... so on top of all their utility, they still do 90% nuke efficiency as the only thing wizards are "good" at.
The best mage nuke also has a 3.2 mana efficiency on top of their pet lmfao.
Honestly, you're probably better off with a level 35 paladin DPSing in a KC group than a 60 wizard if you're chain pulling.
All the "utility" of sTuNs, sNaRe, mAnA rEsErVOiR, sUcCoR and bUrNs DoWn FaSt does not make up for their comical shortcomings in the core functionality of a group.
Live a life of lonely struggle and then be thanked in the raid scene.
