Any point in playing MAG over NEC?

[LordVictor]

I mean, their DD spells and pets seems only slightly better than necro. And very little better. For example :

Lv 1 : Burst of Flame - 5 damage VS lifetap - 3~5 life drain
LV 24 : Shock of Spikes- 176/1.6 DPM DPM VS Shock of Poison - 1.6 DPM
LV 44 - Shock of Swords - 600 d/2.4 DPM VS Incinerate bones - 500d / 2.38dpm

The strongest DD from MAG deals 1024 damage while NECROs has an freaking lifetap which drains 1100 hp.

The level of pets seems to be merely +1. And the max damage of their pets is not that different. The stronger air elementsl deals 60-68 damage while Emissary of Thule deals 52-61 damage.

And this looking only into Pets and Direct Damage, where MAG are supposed to be the best.

Other huge problem of mage is that they seems to be too restricted into fire with few mag damaging spells and no spells which are harder to resist. And don't get me wrong, I"m not an min maxer, I'm playing as an human necromancer(lv 30 at moment), arguably the worst race for necromancers.
