The real reason you don’t see a lot of high level mages trolling around p99 Norrath is directly due to the toxic raid scene. They end up parked as CoTH bots not because they’re not strong but because that’s what their guild requires of them to have any chance at competing. If raid scene worked differently and log in CoTH races weren’t necessary… you wouldn’t see them parked so often.
Mages are underpowered in no area of the game. Yeah they can’t do their dps role in certain raid zones/encounters but they have 2 critical raid jobs that no guild on p99 could compete without:
-CoTH
-mod rods
-They are strong soloers
-they are great in groups
-they have absolutely necessary raid jobs. Glamorous jobs? No, but necessary.
Underpowered my arse.
