I think that the wizard becomes much more powerful at higher levels.
Up until level 8 you're very weak. After that it gets a little
better, and at level 12 you really start to become impressive. My
advice is to stick with it, continue to grow and explore. At level 12
you get "Bind Affinity", which makes travelling around a lot easier.
You will get high damage spells which cast faster and easier as you
advance. As soon as you pass that mark, you'll be able to deal
300-400 hitpoints of damage in a few seconds. At level 20 you'll be
able to teleport to certain locations, and if I am not mistaken,
you'll be able to gate your party members.
Stick with the wizard for now. Before you know it, you will have a
very powerful character that many people will want to have in their
party.
