The reason being OP is that the latter wipes all the time, the former doesn't.
If you play in a group without good casters your group will be a horrible inefficient slog no matter what. The truth is on Green you find whoever the hell can take hits and keep mobs turned. Groups are all about having going casters, period. If you have a group with good casters they'll root the mobs and war will root tank and it will be fine and they won't complain one peep. Odds are if you are complaining about this though you are sitting around getting your xp riding coattails anyways.

The amount of awful inefficient groups I've seen on this server is impressive. It has nothing to do with class composition and everything to do with not knowing the basics of EQ. It also has to do with many players unwillingness to learn how to actually be efficient not "roll an efficient class."

On Green anybody good on -any- class is welcome. When every knucklehead melee "rAiDeR" isn't running around with their DKP loot piņata gear you actually see that Wizards can be great in a group and they are quite welcome now. "rAiDeRs" never rolled a Necro because "tHeY cAnT gRoUp" and look now. It's tons of hot air and people with no clue. Just don't be a nub and that's that.
