Enchanter or Magician

[Arclyte]

I haven't played Enc, but I have leveled up 2 mages, and I will say that it is a very hands-off straight forward class.

In a good group with constant pulls, you will basically be DSing the tank and pressing Pet Attack, with the odd nuke every now and then. It's about 2-3 key presses every pull, the rest of the time you're medding.

But again I liked the idea of controlling the game's strongest pet. The damage you put out between nukes/pet/DS is pretty damn good too. The 50% pet penalty isn't as bad as it sounds, since you solo so well.

Enchanter is a lot more dangerous and requires you to really pay attention, but I'd say it's also more rewarding. A group with an enchanter is always going to do very well, but a group looking for dps will never turn away a mage.
