It's such a fun feeling after you zone, start running, and then Selos kicks in with a drum. Feels like you're engaging warp drive.

Definitely not a boring low-attention class though.
Totally, I have to be in the right mindset to play my bard. I like boring EQ, lol

People who have bard in their blood just operate at a difference pace.

I liked my druid a lot but the end game just feels a little underwhelming for me...I didn't quad much on my druid not because I found it boring, but mostly because I found charming and root rotting to be more fun at the time. Now I am looking for quick, casual play and Wizard seems more suited for that. I like nukes so that's why I am trying to just settle on Mage or Wizard for more casual play

Only problem is I would love to explore dungeons but neither can do it, and Monk just feels really boring

Mages can explore dungeons, just not very efficiently. First you "explore" Permafrost for an extended period of time to collect several bags of root nets, and then you can explore any other dungeon you want ... until your nets run out. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Even then anything with summon will give you a hard time.

Although I've been curious about what a BIS raid geared mage with Willsapper and Herbalist's shovel could do.

Mage's can dungeon crawl in classic at level no problem, it's really in Kunark (with the lack of any real power gain) that mages fall behind there. Honestly I think OP is going to be bored with both classes. Try something you've never played much before IMO.

No one really bothers to BIS a mage anymore I think. That's a cool thought experiment though, it's possible that it would open up a lot of single pull camps. There would be enough HP to face tank for willsapper procs, or joust for procs. Crypt, KM, OS come to mind.

as a main mage, mage sucks outside of raiding and even then those that dont quad are less useful which is like half at least.
