Wizards are underrated. Outside grinding blues any time you need a mobile dps they are great. Chaining Lure of Ice on Sonalak is typically 127-180dps depending if you eat no fears, one, or two. On Vindi with Lure of Flame you can still do 120-130’ish (but can bane that target).
They are marginal at soloing 1v1. Very bad if you can’t root or that mob summons. Amazing for raiding or even small-group hits like epic bosses and kunark dragons.
Adding the mage kit to the wiz would be broken. It’s a shame that mages never got a baby lure outside the summoned nukes (-50). They have more important stuff to do on raids though.
I expect a wizard with some luck could put down Chardok names. It would be painful though and refreshing the epic each nuke and re-root. That and relying on clicks once lom just makes the game slower.
