“I figured I'd ask if Wizzy is more "fun" to play than mage since I do think it suits a casual, semi-afk player perfectly. Thank you”
OP isn’t talk about quad-DA or wizard flurry kiting.
I know most games are supposed to be fun from start to finish but EQ isn’t.
In a pinch, mages are more fun to group with. Soloing is a worse since you don’t quad. You can find a single spawn and squat it to 60. Outside raiding the mage is a much better rounded class (outside ports).
At 60 the mage is a pretty useful green farmer or +1 group player. The wiz with banes is a good raider but otherwise on Lure targets is a mana-limited rogue that can port. With VP or Velk clickies they are more well rounded. Its still easier to get a water staff for a mage off Phinny. Neither are capable of killing much solo at 60.
In general, most of the most fun/useful classes are horrible to grind to 60 but people do it for the payoff. The OP should keep pushing the Druid to 60 and figure out how to get an epic. Or pick an enchanter or necro is looking for a fun and capable experience on the cheap.
