And the only magicians who go to HT or PB are bishops (at this point in time) so what on earth are you speaking of? Assisting victory in a boss run makes you a good bosser? does assisting goals/points in a sport make you a good finisher? Some people are best at assisting which is what magicians are, there is nothing wrong with that. But don't call them good bossers, they are good helpers to the run nothing more and nothing less.
Yes there is a reason Corsairs aren't the only classes that goes on boss runs.. But there is also a reason AM's don't get invited as well.
Ultimate spam on 5 monsters unbuffed > All attacker class damage output fully buffed.
F/p archmages fully buffed are on-par or even outdamage fully buffed nightlords at Pink Bean, thanks to pre-resistance. Slow is also a huge help for mobile bosses.
Assisting increases efficency, and helps win much easier, we clearly have very different views on what bossing characters are, as I believe 1v1 damage is not the only aspect of bossing, but whatever, opinions will be opinions.
