On a side note, I always felt I carried my weight in groups with some timely burst, well placed stuns / interrupts, roots, evacs, but I understand that in a group other casters might be prefered for the comparable dps, and the vastly better utility toolset.
This is the best time ever to roll a Wizard if you want to group. Ultimately, that's where I'm headed. Was originally going to go Necro, but being without Iksar regen makes me want to cry.

Don't let people get you down about Wizards. There might be a stigma early on, but that will get ironed out when people realize chain pulling camps just isn't going to be a reality. The slower the kill speed of the group, the more Wizard DPS gets a chance to shine. And one nice little advantage is being able to keep your LFG tag up, so even if you're LFG in Guk, you can port over to Lavastorm and jump into a group in Sol A/B when that tell comes through without any hassle.

You'll get groups, don't worry about it.
