I tend to agree with that. I'm not talking theory so much as daily reality as it presently exists on P1999, so community perception gets included in my assessment. Meaning if a person wants to make a new character on P1999 today mainly for grouping, the wizard's pretty much the worst choice he can make, even if it's not theoretically worst in all cases.
Original EQ circa 1999-2001 makes the point: There was nothing really wrong with wizards both due to different culture and different needs. The community didn't hate them. Burst mattered more in an environment where groups rarely chain-pulled and where protecting against killsteal (or doing it to others) was a real concern. It was only later on when those things began to change that they started to run into problems.
