I'm yet to see an RPG with an underpowered mage class.

lol'd because it's true. Mages are always rigodamndiculously overpowered. OH LOL BUT THEY HAVE GLASS HEALTH! Yes that's such a weakness when nothing can hit them since they have ridiculous range, almost always have the best AoE attacks, and can easily stun/hold you off and make you fucking useless.

With the exception of maybe Mabinogi, but Mabinogi doesn't have classes, just skills.


Traditionally, there's supposed to be a rock-paper-scissors relationship between the three archetypes (Fighter/Rogue/Mage). Mage blows up/disables/stuns/whatever fighters, rogues can sneak/out-burstdamage mages, fighters can out-tank/win in the long run against rogues. The problem comes with most RPGs not developing the sneaking/burst damage aspect of rogues enough, so mages have free reign to dominate things..
