We need hard details before making that conclusion.

Surging Tempest still does the same damage for me it always has. Forge of Ro was toned down quite a while ago (2+ months) as I recall but not since then.

/use jedi_mind_trick

This isn't the bug you're looking for. Move along please.

surging tempest is still bugged in that the last tick does not do dmg.  that has been there forever.  its damage is however unchanged.

our heat proc line has remained unchanged and its duration has been 30s for a loooooong time.

Forge of Ro actually has been fixed since lu21.  it now does initial dmg of 250-350 when you cast it to all mobs in aoe, instead of having to wait 3 seconds for the first tick to go off.  It just show's the damage in grey instead of the usuall color.  It still does the same dmg.  In fact its doing more now with the added dmg on cast.

It seems to me that a lot of our good spells do less damage than they used too.. but we weren't nerfed. Everything else was buffed :smileytongue:
 
I actually find it kind of sad... Wizard description from the game: The Wizard can unleash the purest forms of destruction by harnessing the arcane magics of fire and ice. Channeling the full force of the elements into deadly focus, no other type of mage is able to match the Wizard's ability to inflict such devastation upon a single target.
 
Now lets put this into what wizards really do as I rewrite our class's description... The Wizard can't unleash the purest forms of destruction by harnessing the arcane magics of fire and ice. Channeling the full force of the elements into deadly focus, no any other type of mage is able to match over power the Wizard's ability to inflict such devastation upon a single target. As a Wizard you will find yourself crying in a corner when you are defeated by a Green con mob. The Wizard has the spell Depart and Portal to teleport himself/herself to a safe place to cry after a mob that is nine levels below the Wizard's level defeats him/her. Wizard's are meant for soloing against Green con mobs that are not heroic and you can be lucky if you can survive in a fight against a Green con mob that has one arrow. You have been warned. Please chooose your class carefully.
 
Always read the fine print folks. The Wizards weren't nerfed, but everything else was buffed. It's enough to make a grown man cry when a wizard, the ultimate form of mage, able to wield the destructive forces of the elements, is defeated by a green con three arrowed heroic. Back in the day, wizards used to be able to nuke any mob, able to solo against the real good heroics and were able to get a lot of experience for it. But newsflash. The future of Norrath is different. We have been OWNED by the other classes and various mobs in the game. ....
 
And has anyone else noticed that we don't get any heals??? Fighter classes even get heals. I mean I understand the Paladin getting a heal, since their on the Divine side, but the other classes with no magic have heals. Wizards, full of magic, have no healing abilities...
 
But back onto the destructive force side.. Wizards have been reduced to nothing. Myself as a level 47 wizard, getting out-damaged by a level 30 something warlock is enough to make me cry.
 
All in all... I have come to this conclusion.. WIZARDS NEED SOME MAJOR BUFFING!!!
Well thanks for reading, and always remember... LEEROY JENKINS!!!!

Upgrade your spells, max out intel, get some APs, get to 50 for IC and stop crying in a corner.  Wizards dont cry.

Don't cry, stab your nearest Necro in the neck. If you can't find a Necro, a Conjuror will suffice.

Remember there aren't any Wizards in EQ only Sorcerors!!

To become a wizard takes long time of studies of magic, elements etc...

If You were a Wizard you will do what all other mages does but better!! NOT JUST NUKING
