Wizards aren't meant to do consistent dps. Wizards even out damage spikes and smooth the group out.
For instance I only nuke mobs that hurt the tanks. Casters where AC doesn't help. A mob that's beating the shit out if the tank. Healers that are healing. And of course gates. And a wizard adds more than just.damage. My root CCs a melee mob just as well as mez.

People get so concerned with steady dps. It's necessary but it won't stop gaters consistently. Or checks. Or runners. Having a good wizard that realizes a wizards true role is an asset to the team more than another afk rogue spamming backstab while they watch Netflix.

I really enjoy the role of a wizard in groups because it feels like it requires a shitload of situational awareness. I’m trying to not have aggro, I’m trying to manage my mana, I’m ready to throw out a quick root, I am ready to blast on a nasty foe, and I have to stay ready to get the hell out of there if shit hits the fan. It is very satisfying when it all comes together, and I don’t really get why people won’t invite me to groups when they have open spots. I guess it’s hard to fix a bad reputation.
