Escapade

Played an illus for a short time in KoS and EoF (about 4 months) and it was great. I was a fantastic soloer, doing a bunch of instances with ease, doing all the quests I wanted to, and grinding just fine. I was also constantly in the top 3 DPS for my guild.

Are illusionists still good at both soloing heroics (named mobs) and doing raid DPS? I haven't bothered reading patch notes or anything since August 2007 or so, so I'm completely out of it.

Planning on coming back to the game this week, and out of the classes I played, Illusionist was the most fun for sure - but only because I found it challenging to play well, and very versatile.

If things have changed, please explain how. If you think I would be better off with another class, please explain that as well. My experiences are with a bruiser, necro, conj and coercer, but as I said, it's all old information.

Nothing's change, we're still in the same state we were then. In fact, nothing has really changed since DoF.

Illusionist is the ideal mage for me, you get great buffs for yourself and the group/raid, as well as tremendous dps if you can mash buttons fast enough. I still can't figure out why we can't conjur up a run buff though...some kind of carrot on a stick illusion :P
