I don't think their hugely underpowered, more one dimensional. Mages don't have alot of options

Precicely.

For the other posters, you keep shifting out of "most underpowered overall", to things like " most underpowered soloing", "most underpowered in classic", etc.

This is why we are talking past each other.

Most underpowerd class (on P99) must take into account the full timeline because your character will be in all expansions. It must take into account how the class plays before level 60, and at level 60. It must take into account the average server's raid time, which is casual. It must take into account the role of the class. It must take into account how useful their toolkit is.

Mage is the class I see the least often at level 60 outside of raids. The reason for this is simple: their decent solo capabilities do not outweigh how poorly they scale as they level, and how their toolkit just doesn't mesh too well with the timeline and the player bases knowledge.

If this wasn't true we would see more Mages.
