The Ogre has almost certainly never touched a woman, and probably can't even tie his own shoes, assuming he can even find a pair that fit on his fat, elephant-like feet. Meanwhile, the Wizard is effortlessly spitting out 56 DPS with a Rend Robe, snaring, stunning, bursting down nameds, staff pulling, TLing and porting all over the world AND TO OTHER PLANES OF EXISTENCE ENTIRELY.

And the Chad Wizard does all of this before the virgin Ogre can even remember what class he is, and while maintaining a levitation spell on the slutty Human chick from South Qeynos he keeps hidden under his flowing, majestic robe.
I accept your story as a concession that you cannot back up your claims. I do find the story amusing for sure! I also think Wizards are a fine class.

However, if you wanted a solo crew with a dedicated Wizard, a Shaman/Enchanter/Enchanter/Wizard group would be an even stronger option in that scenario. The Shaman can solo something like A4 while there are no duo targets available. The Cleric cannot solo as much as a Shaman, so you are restricting your options by forcing a duo + solo split with Cleric/Enchanter/Enchanter/Wizard. You could have a 3 player solo split with a Shaman. Nobody seems to be disagreeing with the idea that Shamans are a very strong solo class. When an Enchanter does need backup for a harder target, the Shaman will work just fine. That is the whole purpose of the Wizard after all, being able to gather up the group members quickly to hit a target.

You can also just roll Barbarian if you care so much about looking like a human as a Shaman.
