most underpowered class in game?

[Vexenu]

There are honestly no bad or underpowered classes in EQ, there are just bad classes for specific styles/preferences of play. Wizard might be objectively the "worst" class, but if you're the type of player who is endgame/raid focused but are kind of lazy and don't enjoy a lot of responsibility...congratulations, put on your robe and wizard hat (or maybe pick up a dagger - Rogue would be the second choice for such a player).

And Druids are also objectively pretty "bad", but if you're a casual player who just likes running around casually doing quests and buffing newbs and porting people... then you're not gonna be well served by an "overpowered" Enchanter.

You can get a lot of mileage out of every class. Just use them in their correct niche.

True story. Druids and wizard get the most hate in high end groups and raids but they are convenient and powerful in their own right in certain levels of gameplay.

No class is globally worthless. Each has their own area of shine depending on level, content, scope and goal.

Druids POTG is insanely valuable long lasting mana regeneration. Their velious BP is a free 600 mana group regrowth. That's potentially 2490*6 = 14,940 health total heal over duration across 6 people. The small sustained hp regeneration across dozens of people all adds up especially taking into account mod rods and lich/twitch mechanics.
