Just as a quick update, I ended up going with a Necromancer. It has been pretty fun, and I've managed to fully gear myself and bank 2500p up until 34 so far. I did level a Magician till 18, and the total lack of CC besides the Earth pet, and the pet dumping its aggro onto me after it dies was just too frustrating - this is all as someone that has to solo 98% of the time. If I had a duo partner, or grouped more often than not I think I would have still enjoyed the Mage. The power of and options that a Necro has are just too much vis a vis what a Mage can do, imo.
