Magicians pre nerf-flogging were actually decently fun and a very chill group class. They aren’t even in the same universe as necros in terms of power. Maybe with the epic I guess, which is of course only for a very select few players
Solo? Still not even close to necro.

They're too 1 dimensional. No CC ruins mages.

If we're talking live pre-nerf, Mage pets could tank as well (if not better) than warriors. You don't need CC when you're the best tanking class in the game [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

But without that (and despite this place's claim to shoot for classic, worts and all, that particular wort somehow got left off) Mages are just inferior but viable soloers, and a decent but inferior DPS role in groups.

Back in relevant terms on blue, mages are coth bots. You stop leveling at 55 unless you're ultra hardcore going for epic or just want to finish off a 60.

They cannot do much compared to a necro (again, solo).

Hope this helps.
