There's your problem!

Seriously though, you're setting yourself up for a bad time by trying to play a 60 wizard, in a grinding group, on a server where every 50+ melee has monster sustained damage, on a server where people tend to want to stack sustained damage, etc. Wizards are great for easy 1-60 solo, great for AE groups, great for raiding (even when only wearing some cheapo resist gear), great on a more "balanced" server in terms of timeline/melee gearing, etc.

You wouldn't try to solo dark blues in a dungeon on a 60 rogue and then wonder what is wrong with the rogue class when it doesn't work, right? You wouldn't try to tank raid mobs on an enchanter and then wonder what is wrong with the enchanter class when you die instantly, right? You wouldn't try to solo heal a king group as a 60 druid and then wonder what is wrong with the druid clas when you can't cut it, right? Of course not. And you shouldn't try to do a 60 grind group on a wizard on this server and then wonder if something is wrong with the wizard class when you aren't a perfect fit in that group.
