Wizard again to level 4....

Maybe I should just give up.

I want to do everything (utility, group, buffing, soloability), but the one class that seems to do it all, Druid, just doesn't sit with me. I like the arcane caster theme, not nature.

Ironically, when I played EQ in 2003, I mained a Druid during PoP and Ykesha (granted I played casually). It's so weird that now I'm older I hate the idea of nature casters, yet it used to be amazing. I remember spending most of my time hanging out in low level areas PLing people for free, just chatting.

I wish I could just make alts and flick between them, but I keep rerolling to keep my 'main' name [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Should I just stick to Wizard and accept it's many limitations? Or force myself to level to the more interesting stuff on Druid -- surely if I managed to main one to 60 back in the day, I can learn to love it again?

Yeah, I'm surprised it took until Page 2 for someone to recommend a necromancer. In Chortles's words, the necromancer is the class that actually feels like a powerful wizard.

But I bet if you get that wizard to level 29 and get Bonds of Force and your Staff of Temperate Flux, you could have a blast with the famous wizard strategy of "alternate between quadding and AFK medding chores/workout/YouTube."

As for me, when I was just getting started, I bounced around between a bunch of classes before reading someone's opinion that enchanters were the hardest class to play. When I read that, I said to myself "Oh yeah? We'll see about that!" and I was hooked.

Anyway, I humbly suggest you try a necro and/or stick out the wizard. You could also use the necro to twink out the wizard.
