The wizard is the friggin' master of AoE attacks. They have the only ranged area at-will in the game! Clerics don't even get a ranged burst until level 15, and by then, wizards are putting up walls of ice and fire, blinding huge numbers of enemies with Prismatic Burst, and setting up Clouds that do automatic poison damage to anyone in them, the whole encounter long.Sure, clerics get some nice AoEs later on, and the way Astral Storm outclasses Meteor Swarm is just sad. But nothing the cleric gets compares to Legion's Hold, Prismatic Spray, or even Destructive Salutation, in terms of sheer wreaking of carnage. He gets some neat toys, but the wizard is sitting very comfortably in his role.</blockquote>
