As the expansions progress, powerful melee weapons become common for low level melee, all the low level casters are still stuck with the same original spells dmg/mana ratio they always had from release. Only later expansions did casters start to get foci casting items to make up for this.
Case in point, a noob int caster spends 200pp for 10 int, that doesnt do much for 1-20 lv.
A noob melee can spend 200pp an get a 10/22 dmg weapon (sword of skyfire), which will allow 1-20 lv stomp mobs faster than any caster spells or pets for those levels.
Melee only had large disadvantage before Kunark, but with each expansion they start to even out and even outclass most casters with the right gear till high end.
