wizards are still beast for certain fights lol and do amazing dps on kunark mobs. when you get VP loot you can do 21 dps w/ 0 mana on boss fights and 56 dps w/ 0 mana on regular mobs with rend robe and lurestick.

After my first Dain fight in Velious I'm pretty sure an epic mage pet out DPS'ed me, then the TL nerfs sealed the deal of depression and now I drop hella deeps on a rogue instead.

I still think a wiz is a vital part of raiding and necessary for any encounter especially when people are porting around for mobs with big windows but yeah isn't always the funnest class for everyone.

The truth is that they actually get generated and sold as fast as they can be on the server since kurns is being vaporized 24/7, and few people play or want to play a wizard so the majority of the people want to sell it. The good news is it's quite inexpensive for how exceedingly rare it is.

Hey look a guy who has never killed a kunark dragon. Wizards are boss.

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

This is unfortunately so true. It's one of the many reasons that it makes me sad that Luclin will never release on P99. Wizards in one expansion go from port bots that you log out to play your rogue once the raid gets in zone, to clearly the top raid DPSers in the game in Luclin, which is imo what wizards were always intended to be.
