Dude.. let's be real for a moment - Roleplay? Really? You plan on nuking stuff down then going afk while you med...(your words) that isn't roleplaying.
Going around with 6 Wizards who stick together and blast whatever they want has a nice roleplaying aspect to it.

the only stuff you're going to reliably nuke/root is going to be white or lower. Now unless I was just unlucky as hell on my wizard back in the day I remember resists on non blues being a PAIN. I also remember the nuke on a blue taking about 1/4-1/3 of the health... heck my shaman can nuke blues for about 1/4-1/5... so why do you need 6 wizards to get your effect?
One nuke will absolutely not take 1/4-1/3 off high blues once you start getting up there in levels. At Level 12, sure.

Huh?

Here's how it would work. Say us 6 Wizards are trying to break a camp with 5 spawns. 5 of the Wizards will start off by rooting one the monsters and the 6th Wizard will watch closely to root right away if one of the initial roots gets resisted. As soon as everything is rooted, then we just starting spiking them down 1 by 1. Doesn't matter if root breaks on the target because it dies instantly. The 6 Wizards can quickly kill an area like this. We just have to not fight in places that have a lot of casters.

This kind of tactic is something that nobody has done on the server and I don't see how you could possibly have more fun as a Wizard. It's way more exciting than soloing and its way more involving than being in a standard group setup, where you can't even cast on the target until its under 50% health and the rest of the time you just sit there waiting.

Not saying your idea does not sound fun, but AE groups and bard duos are a lot of fun, IMO. Nothing quite like taking down an entire zone at once.

I want to join. 'Nuff said.

I'll make my Wizard tonight and get him over to Qeynos.

Not to put a damper on the whole thing, but 6 magicians would also be pretty interesting. Certainly still have similar "burst" components, and 6 pets would be freaking HILARIOUS.

And then the GMs will ban you all due to the plethora of petitions about you being multiboxers
Makes me think of this asshole that used to multi-box 3 or 4 shamans on battlegrounds in WoW. Get anywhere near them and they'd all instantly lightning bolt you to death.

I really hated that guy.

6 Monk would work okay- Rotating Aggro with FD and Using Mend/ BW would keep downtime minimal. If you were ungodly rich you could have 6 iksar monks with fungi's and epics and just plow to 50.

Forgot to mention 6 monks spamming intimidation on harder mobs- Pretty good chance to land it every time.

As someone who played on Sullon Zek from the beginning, I have a huge appreciation for a Sam Deathwalker reference.

6 boxing is for pussies that guy was boxing an entire raid force by the end.

Well there's plenty of time to do that at the late levels to grind out Level 60. ^_^
