So 5 wizards can do more than that in 1 min.

Base spells 2k, casts 5 times a min, 10k per min
With these spells 3 wizards just about do that, 1 min.

When Vox is trying to cast complete heal, nothing beats a wizard group burn for the win.

The grossly uninformed think rogues are more dps than wiz or mage on 32k mobs.

A few years ago I watched my guilds wizards burn down Gore on blue in seconds. I was totally floored. Granted not a Velious dragon but it was damn cool.

So. My maths are neat. Thx <3

Wizards are the solution when every problem is a mob that has loot or exp.

Kunark dragons = wizards rule
Velious dragons = rogues rule, wizards still ok

Truth is, a lot more people mained wizards back in 2000-2001. It was often simply their first character that they stuck with and leveled to 60. Switching to another class didn't look appealing to a lot of people because leveling was so painful and slow.

It was always a great thing to see a good wizard turnout for a Kunark raid. I'm sure that ANY raid/guild leader from back then will confirm. /who all guild wiz and seeing like 5x 60 wiz was a true feeling of satisfaction when deciding on a target.

On P99 though, with all the knowledge we have, people don't level many wizards to 60, because they know their life at 60 kinda sucks.

This is not quite accurate with the current Velious meta.

Wizards are *very* flavor of the month in Velious raiding on blue.

Supposedly there are guilds actively PL'ing wizard bots for this reason. Riot definitely tends to be very wizard heavy.

It's cute seeing how many people are wrong on this box or have no idea what they are talking about.
