Thinking of Starting a Wizard
So, I started a monk, but I am also thinking of starting a wizard to group with my two friends. They seem to get a really bad rep. Is it just due to them not being very solo efficient solos? Or what?
I am looking to get into them, cause they seem useful for raids, but I am curious as to people's opinions. I am new to this server so twinking isn't really possible either. | ||

The bad rep Wizards have is that they are good burst DPS, but pretty shitty exp group dps. In order to not go oom, they can only cast 1 nuke per fight basically, so you wind up not doing much damage compared to say a rogue or even a mage (Pets help a lot).
Also, Wizards need to constantly med means it looks like they AFK a lot, even if they don't. But, they are tons of fun in raids if you like seeing big numbers. | ||

So it might be better to role an enchanter or something? Just the feedback from the people on the forums seems pretty negative.

Play what you want to play. Just be aware those choices come with play style differences. Enchanters can almost always find groups, and if they can't, they can charm solo. Wizards will have trouble finding groups but 29+ can Quad Kite for Exp.
They are just different and fulfill different roles. Play what you enjoy. If you want to do DPS and port and throw up big numbers, roll a wizard. If you want to buff, charm, etc. roll a chanter. | ||

Wizards are pretty much forced to solo. They do pretty good at quading, but its a lonely life.

I get groups without much issue for the most part, only 23 right now though. having the option to solo when there are no groups is nice though. | |||

Don't roll a wizard unless you're sure you want to play one. They're very one-dimensional and boring. You will spend most of your time meditating. Even in raids, rogues are often more useful than you are in terms of DPS against bosses (due to aggro issues).
