[QUOTE="Victim, post: 5248579, member: 78"] No. Most other controllers are worse than wizards. Invokers often have weaker conditions, smaller areas, and weaker zone dailies - they do have more party friendly powers and some good buffs, so they're the second best controller class. Druids are roughly at the warlock level of control, without even warlock damage. Seekers are slightly better off, since they benefit even more from basic attack optimization, but they're still generally limited in targets. Psions are a badly designed class built around two level 1 at wills. Damage focused wizards are brutal because of all the various damage boosting options wizards have, not because of powers like Meteor Swarm. Which even damage wizards don't take. With sufficient damage bonuses, the base damage on the powers isn't a great contributor to the total output. There's a reason why Orbs, save penalties, Legion's Hold, the wizard's many condition inflicting zone dailies, Blood Mage, etc have been hit with the nerf stick. [/QUOTE]
