Looking for a class wanted by groups.

A good wizard isn't doing that.....in fact... I dunno even how a bad one does that without dying.

Are they really that inefficient?

They must have moderate DPS nukes with lower dps that they can cast once a fight to keep them damn close to a rogue?

I could see if they're using their biggest nuke exclusively that they'd be OOM constantly.

Then again, I've seen a Wizard solo take an even con (in his late 20's) from like 95% to 15-20% in one nuke, so I dunno...definitely a great solo class, but this thread isn't about that. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

People hate on wizards a lot and only some of it is deserved. They are quite bad before level 29, and they are not optimal for traditional experience groups...but frankly experience in a traditional group for a wizard is awful compared to what they get solo or in an aoe group, and they are invaluable to boss mobs in kunark. In theory there are several other classes that can solo faster than a wizard, but the ease of movement to exp spots and to get c2 make them an awesome solo class post 29

Hate on wizards all you want, if you want XP in the planes, get into the wizard group [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wizards kill healer mobs, they stun, they root.

They are not supposed to be unloading mana on that light blue or yellow con melee that just showed up.
