The fighter's speciality is melee damage over an unlimited amount of time. A fighter will do more aggregate damage than any other class in the group. A fighter will kill more enemies and a fighter never exhausts their power supply.That does not mean a fighter should always outdamage a wizard or caster.Wizards and other casters should be able to a larger amount of short term damage. They should also be able to greatly outdamage a fighter when the circumstances permit such as when a large group of low hit point creatures are close together for a fireball.A wizards specialty is magic. Magic really has no limits. It is hard to balance a force such as magic while trying to make a viable melee class. In fact, it is nigh on impossible if your goal is to balance the power of the two classes.</blockquote>
