Mage and Warrior. Both rely on groups and die to a wipe.

Wizard

Can store unused dps as mana. Unused melee dps is wasted (e.g if the camp is empty or afk happens).

Eye of Zomm allows pulling while meditating. Convenient proc target too.

Instant cc as mobs come in to camp with aoe snare.

Has a variety of roots, and gets them early on. Can be heavily leaned on for pulling, tanking and CC. IMO best type of spell in the game.

Huge number of stuns and push nukes to assist in caster control, positioning and damage reduction.

Instant group evac via sky neck.

Amazing burst dps in groups by dropping a couple of rains and a nuke at once.

Fair grind dps with correct group composition. Said group composition also opens up swarm AOEing too.

Excellent at forming groups.

Grants access to an entire mid tier raid zone.

Neutral faction.

Bind sight scouting.

Strong mobility and fte ability.

I’ve never felt my wizard was underpowered. Only done 1-56 though.

My son has been having a blast with his wizard (literally [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]), also level 56. very powerful. The FTE thing gets a big upvote for wizards when there is 15 players waiting for AC pop in Sro. My son was running through Sro once and the AC popped right in front of him. He smoked it, and pissed off everyone who'd been waiting for 20 minutes, hehe.

As far as the gimpiest class? Tough call, really, because I think it all depends on how you play. If you are a lazy fucker, any class will be lame. If you are obsessed with squeezing every ounce of power from your class, I still think they are all the same.

Most assholish class? BARD, hands down. There's nothing like doing some soloing in a spot that has a decent mixture of mobs, with not too many dangers, and some blue suckhole waltzes up and sucks up every mob in the zone. The other night I was having a good time in EK pulling undead reavers, and when I got done, I sat down by the water's edge. I heard footsteps and got up to see what was going on, and there was a bard, swarming all around right in front of me. A whole huge area there, so it wasnt like there were any constrictions, so I felt like he was taunting me. I darknessed one of his swarm and gated. I was overloaded and ready to sell and get some food anyway, but sweet geebus, does every bard have to be a jackass? Why do they have to swarm in spots that a lot of people go to solo? Surely there are many spots that can be had that won't anger other players. Fuck bards.

Paladin are the weakest to me. They have no unique ability that's needed for gameplay, bad DPS, bad movement, and one of their key tools (stun) doesn't work much of the time in Velious.

From a raiding perspective, its SK by a wide margin. They bring essentially nothing. You could replace every SK in a raid with a soulfire'd paladin and be far better off.

Single group: mage, wiz, ranger all pretty poop.

I mostly solo, some small groups and the occasional full group. Rogue is by far the most underpowered. They cannot solo worth a darn. And in a group, the only class I'd want less than a Rogue is a Wizard.
