As DMN said...

A wizard is nice for nuking down something fast. So if you only do one fight, the wizard is great. But since the wizard will need to med like forever after that one kill, he/she will not contribute to the next 10 kills of the group. So, ironically, the wizard is one of the lowest sustained DPS classes. In fact it may even be the second lowest (after cleric) of all.

While soloing a wizard can make up for it once he/she can quad kite, but this is strictly a solo (or maybe duo) occupation. Much later on wizards do have a role in raiding.

If you were lured into the wizard class because you want to be THE dps caster, you were being misled. One mage will probably do more than 2 wizards DPS wise (pet dishes out constantly and mages nukes are only a little bit weaker than wizards). A good chanter will be even better and even a necro will do more DPS in a group, due to pet while also having a lot more versatility.
