At launch casters in general are going to be more powerful than melee classes with crap gear. That is just reality.
If we want pure classic, mage pets were kind of crappy at the original launch. However if you go down that road, necro pets were OP back then (dagger delay, which they said is not happening for green). Did you want to nerf pets or did you want pure classic?

Pure classic. Necros being OP is pure classic. Necros crapped all over mages back then, at least for a short while. I want EQ classic done right. Also keep in mind it took Verant a long time for mage pets to dual wield (read the following):
Necro pets should not equip two of the same weapon until January 2000 patch era
Necro pets should not lifetap until January 2000 patch era
So yes, necros > mages for a long time in vanilla. It's a fact.
