Even worse if no bard/enc in the group. Pre-focus items/mount/FT etc. pure casters have it rough. Your main selling point will be as a porter/evaccer for groups that need it like in the Hole.

Actually it's WORSE with a an enchanter/bard in the group because their haste spells give melees a much higher percentage boost to their DPS than clarity does for wizards. Clarity also allows the healer to heal more often, which of course means faster pulls...even more bad news for the wizard.

Just a bunk class for grouping. Wizard mana regen should have always adjusted to the pull rate of the group, simple as that.
