B) You just want to afk in groups and be the boss vs raid targets.

Wizards can do ok in groups, but there is a reason why you don't see wizards in every group. It wasn't till Sony made wizard nukes crit starting at lvl 1 did wizards even be on par with melee.

With the server deciding to cherry pick about letting people keep their keys soulbound, it effected Wizards/Druids in Sebilis/HS even more. Without them to evac groups out when shit hit the fan, groups had to depend on some other group to give up their camps and dungeon on crawl to your group and save you. It happened next to none on live servers unless it was guild members doing the saving and forced groups to decide to group a druid or wizard.
I remember getting ridiculous xp aoe as chanter with wizzies in Seb. What do you mean server deciding to cherry pick ?
