Have to wonder: Between various threads, it seems that hybrids (Paladin, Ranger, Shadow Knight), Druids, Wizards, Magicians, Necromancers, and un-twinked melee in general don't get groups. So.....who's grouping? Are all the leveling groups a Warrior, a few Rogues or Monks and a Cleric?

so in a lvl 60 dps race, the wizard will murder the magician

against one mob sure but sustained dps on constant pulls no. im not talking about single target mobs or raids mobs, ofc a wiz will win, that is what they specialize in.

A wizard gets root, so that have pretty good CC where a Mage doesn't.

But this stuff where a Wizard is going to out DPS a Mage is crap. Yeah for what like 15 seconds until the Wizard runs out of mana, and has to med for 8 minutes, while the Mage pet goes along its merry way killing the shit out of things. I will take the Mage in a group over a Wiz, any day DPS wise.

I have been in group after group where I have seen the Mage peel off a add and kill it faster solo than the rest of the group can the original mob. They are a pretty wicked class. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

thanks everyone. i was really really REALLY trying to find reasons why i would start playing a wizard and how in some ways wizards will trump mages in some aspects. i'm 80% confident on what i t hink now... ;[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

60 wizard here.

Laughably better raid DPS from joke mana efficiency and harvest.

Maybe for 2 mobs, but rogues will kick your ass across a session [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Groups? lol.

Everyone needs to level a shaman and get their A game on for TunnelQuest: Velious Edition.

If you haven't got a shaman, you can't win at TunnelQuest.

I KS entire groups of melees on raids

/shrug

Real xp group on fear/hate is like 3 wizards each casts 3 draughts or so per mob

Mana robe away with regen or epic if ur baller

im unable to play melee classes. the amount of moving around and micro ing isnt my thing. i like staying back and blowing things away.

i've never raided before in EQ.

are there any stats for DAMAGE DONE for raid bosses. like how world of warcraft has. i want to see top dps meters of each class with similar equivalent gear on dragon bosses. is there a website ifor that

That downtime tho...put 2 focused rogues in a group and they'll end up with a good chunk of the XP on raids.
