Can confirm, soloing 50+ as a Mage sucks bad. If you pull more than 1 mob, you're basically screwed without root nets. Not to mention the xp penalty if you don't out-damage your pet (or kill it before the mob dies).
Mages are an incredibly focused class and offer a small amount of utility (malos, DS, summoned crap, dispell, COTHs) but the lack of any type of root or snare is tough. Literally every other casting class, including hybrids, get either a root or snare or both.
