What? Buy a monk a wu's quivering staff for 40pp and you are set for level 40!

If wizards had a fairly fast casting nuke (being a blue to cast and then sit again to hit Med ticks) that was hugely efficient mana wise but for relatively light damage ...
... that would have helped them out immensely. Such a nuke would be less than ideal for a hard burn but would have allowed them to sustain solid damage over time.

If you haven’t bothered to actually parse a max summon 57- 59 mage pet (earth and air) with summon haste mask, mage spell haste buff and any available strength buffs the group has to offer ... they’re depressingly powerful. 60 water pet properly positioned is an absolute beast. Epic mage pet approaches Demi-god status. I run a real time parser in most all groups. My epic monk was 58 before I created my mage (now 59 alongside my 59 monk). The catalyst for deciding to roll my mage was parsing a max summon 57 earth pet (quads 70 fast and hard) in KC when my monk was 55. The earth pet consistently trounced my epic monk’s dps. What I couldn’t parse was the additional DS and nukes. I was impressed. In seb groups with c2 I can generally hoverbutt in the 90-110 combined pet/nuke dps range unless we’re chain pulling with no down time at all. Add more for the DS which is harder to clearly quantify. The lion’s share of that damage comes from the pet. Mage dps potential is one of this server’s best kept secrets. They’re powerhouses. Anywho if you’d like some parses I can dig some out tomorrow if I get home from work at a reasonable hour.

Reading about wiz woes makes me recall the story about how they were much stronger in beta but the developers saw that a 6 man group of wizards could take down raid bosses so they got nerfed before release which is the reason for their state in early live and P99.

Reason: Spelling

I heard the wave spells used to be really powerful and without limits to how many mobs they would hit per wave but they got reigned in.

When I’m on my shaman I’m the weird guy that stacks maniacal strength and focus on all the group’s/raid’s pets. It doesn’t make their max hit go up higher than the spell and level of pet dictates but it wildly deflects their average hit consistently to max or near max and they quad fast with mask + spell buff haste. Works exceptionally well for enchanter charm pets also but increases the risk for the charming ench considerably.
