Gaining XP as a wizard

My point is that wizards are terrible in normal xp groups. If you replace a 60 wizard on blue with a 60 magician, necromancer, or enchanter, that group will get better - regardless of the number, level, and classes of the other members. If my group was Enc/Enc/Enc/Enc/Enc, I would still rather have a 6th enchanter than another wizard [You must be logged in to view images.

Now don't get me wrong, the Wizard class is far from bad. They can level up easily with quad kiting/pbaoe groups. They are fantastic at blowing up raid bosses. They are fantastic at mobilization.

But whenever you are consistently casting single target nukes as a wizard, you are being extremely ineffective compared to just about anything else.

I just med up in groups and when things get out of control, just burn 1-2 mobs down. Med for 10 min.
