I can't agree more. The wizards job is to kill stuff. on bad pulls
the wizards job is to kill stuff -- faster. The only hard part about
playing a wizard is figuring out when you can blast and not pull,
and when you can blast and med and still not pull, and thats's not
exactly hard.

Might add shaman to this list, they have a lot of different
spells, and deciding when to cast which isn't the easiest.
I still chuckle to myself as I watch shamans spend half the fight
trying to slow the target, at which time the wizard stands up and
finishes it off in 10 seconds.
