You have to like the class for what its good at, and stop hating it for what it can't do. You could just as easily compared your CC'ing. It just ain't gunna happen. Learn to use your nukes to even out the load... nuke down overpulls... med when things are slower. Have evac ready. Root/ghetto mez and stun (gaters especially) when needed.

Yes, when things are going well you are just utility, and could easily be replaced by a pet caster or melee dps.

A druid can do all of those things and much more. wizards are .47 dmg/mana more efficient though. As in druids do 3.2 damage/mana and wizards do 3.67. Nice try, though.

If your only concern is your ability within a standard 6 man group then wizard is not for you. They are good for soloing, mobility, raid bosses, and aoe groups.

What do you mean nice try? Druids are utility too and in the same boat, relatively.

Take the groups when you can get them. Do your best to shine. It won't be optimal exp, but what fun is that? (says my wizard. My cleric says go solo/PBAE or reroll a rogue)

FM - NEXT.

In all seriousness though maining a wizard without intention of raiding will drive you nuts and/or bore you to death.

As a raiding main however I still prefer them over other classes for the most part. You're always the first to get places, never have to worry about finding a porter and do great burst damage.

If you don't raid you'll probably have more fun with another class that shines more in a group/dungeon/farming setting.
