velious era wizards are the worst class in the game and perhaps the worst class in the history of any MMO.

Verant didn't realize wizards were bad until luclin when they fixed them.

wizards are still beast for certain fights lol and do amazing dps on kunark mobs. when you get VP loot you can do 21 dps w/ 0 mana on boss fights and 56 dps w/ 0 mana on regular mobs with rend robe and lurestick.

After my first Dain fight in Velious I'm pretty sure an epic mage pet out DPS'ed me, then the TL nerfs sealed the deal of depression and now I drop hella deeps on a rogue instead.

I still think a wiz is a vital part of raiding and necessary for any encounter especially when people are porting around for mobs with big windows but yeah isn't always the funnest class for everyone.
