I wouldnt say people are "hating on it". I just dont think it changes much of what a mage will do (kill geo's easier, farm droga faster?), it just makes the solo mage a much better package.
Pet wise, the epic is like a 500hp BMW where the water pet is a 500hp clapped-out 90's Mustang. If the Mustang will edge out the BMW at one thing it will suffer in 9 other categories. But, if you are comparing that one thing and its all that matters...sometimes the epic pet will get smoked.
I really love the mage and what it brings to the table. PvE casual content and raid content. It obviously has the best pets and the epic is amazing. If anything people hate on the class more than the epic, because they would all die to have an epic mage in their fleet.
