Nope, Seafuries are easier to handle if you can sit on their spawn points with a pet and own their faces. Necros and Mages are better at this.
So, you only do one mob every 2 minutes? Because if you're using 430 mana per mob and it takes a little over 2 minutes to med that much mana...
Porting is less pp/hour than quadding seafuries or HGs, or even camping certain named mobs. It's good when you're younger - but unfortunately:
Druids actually get better port locations earlier and can self-sow. They're a better travel class than wizards.
And you're right, the case is closed - because if you run the numbers, wizards lose. Until you actually compare sustained dps during the course of the group, you don't realize what's actually happening. You just see your big numbers and get all misty-eyed.
Wizards simply don't do what other classes can do. Just saying "omg I nuked something for 30% of its life, obviously i'm awesome in a group" doesn't actually compare classes - it's a statement in a vacuum and doesn't accomplish anything.

Your wrong about seafuries, of course if the island is crowded quaddin is not feasible and therefore you will not be able to kill as many and killin one at a time is worthless as a wiz.
However, when able to quad you can basically destroy 4 seafuries every +/- 11min if you are good at it and you cant tell me necros can do better, because they cant.
And who the fuck wants to play a mage where you are basically sidekick to your pet and all you can do is heal and hope agro doesn't come your way.
And when i say porting for pp of course im talkin about pre seafury lvl and you can make SICK amounts of plat bound in ec, beleive me i know.
Its amazing hearing this coming from a fellow wiz who should know these things but seems clueless.
Noones gettin misty eyed over a lil 658 pt nuke..... but it does damage and unless you just suck at playing your wiz you can nuke 1-2 times easily per mob ( in seb it DOES take 2min to kill a mob with a balanced group) and provide ample dps... of course not as good as dps classes but it is suffienct.
And put me in a group with c2 and bard song ill blow other people outta the water with the damage i can lay down, because thats all your mana goes to... NUKES.
And please tell me sir whats better xp from 40 -50 quadding bloodgills? Answer : nothing and ill put my life on that shit.
I guess all im trying to say as i defend the wiz is that it IS a fun as hell class to play and not once have i felt inferior to anyone, mostly because like many others have little to no respect for mages/necros who get high lvl because frankly, its too fuckin easy as those classes.
Play a wiz for a challenge and you will be rewarded later in your career.
