Wizard is a fun class, and the highest leveled one I managed to get on this server thus far (53). It's simple, fun, and effective in many ways. Love being able to delete mobs in seconds, and then go back to alt-tabbing to YT videos and such while I med.
The issue is that I really wanted to explore dungeons and join groups, and wizard just isn't going to let me do that. I was entirely solo from 1-53, only making a party when someone wanted a port. I wondered how I was going to be able to get my Concussion spell as no one in my last guild really wanted to help me. When I expressed a desire to do some dungeon content they just shrugged me off. I heard Wizards become infinitely more fun when they get their various class clickies, but if I could never get a Highkeep group back in the day, what hope was there of ever getting into a Kael one?
Essentially I wanted to do more with my wizard than quad kite and port people, and it wasn't looking good on that front, so I've been rerolling ever since trying to find that one class I could identify with. Maybe I will pick him up again one day as I did enjoy the class, and he's in DaP now making money for my reroll projects. I just don't want to be forever that guy who still gets lost in SolB, you know?
Mage was also a pretty fun class, got that one to level 45. My concerns there were the extreme difficulty of their epic, their ability to solo at higher levels, and their raid viability. I heard mages only get brought to raids to summon mod rods, and how many mod rod vendors do you need in a raid? I heard they weren't even allowed to summon pets in them.
