Rogues are meant to have insane dps, which explains why they get kills most of the time.
However, during a boss fight, when all auto atcks go miss miss miss miss dodge parry miss miss miss, mages have an advantage. Though the evasions are still high, generally speaking mages would land in more hits than rogues.

However again, First of all, double strike just made mages obsolete. Basically an iresistable ice shards in the mages' perspective for other classes (except non auto build druids). Well, if a mage uses double, bam 160 dmg, congratulations...

HOWEVER, once again, with the new shadowstrike (irresistable insane poison dmg) and riposite if used correctly, rogues can out dps mages in Boss fights AS WELL, not to mention pvp... (note to mages: DO NOT duel rogues and warriors, they would obliterate you while you desperately wait for your skills while you do your poopy auto dmg and they go like 400 300 400 500 with their auto dmg). Ignoring double strike...

Now to get on with warriors. Mages should at least out dps the TANK right? Wrong again, now with that shatter+rupture, warriors can wreck tons of *** that would even receives applause from dps rogues. PvP is out of question, they can beat rogues, no need for more. In boss fights, unless they get their skills evaded all the time while their auto go miss miss miss miss miss, mages can't get the kills.

I can't really say much for druids and rangers. Druids may have a chance to out dps us with vines and that goddamn swarm, but rangers? They would have to rely on double shot, since most of their autos go miss miss miss miss miss on a boss.

Overall, in terms of dps on 6* bosses. Here's the rank

1. Rogues and Warriors
2. Rangers, Mages, and Druids

Reason for multiple classes in a rank is, let's admit it, luck and fluctuations...

mages are the best burst damage

i am all for lowering energy costs and making energy regaining easier, not for a dps increase though. i have ALWAYS seen this game and mages- burst damage (i have never been in a levelling group where it wasnt a mage getting kills) and rogues long term damage with rangers competing based on the skill of the particular ranger

I agree.
Also if you wanna kill an endgame boss(hrung, mord, necro) im 100% sure they will rage without lures.

this as well, mages are one of the most important support classes as well as burst damage

+1 to fixing energy issues

This is the only game where a Mage can even come close to support. It is stupid. Nevertheless, the effect of lures is rather negated now with the recent bosses.

The problem does not rise from the hit amounts but the dynamics. Fluctuations and evades kill overall dps to the point where rogues do outdps mages. Even full focus ones.

I'd be happy if the evades and damage variation improved. It seems unfair that Mages tend to struggle a lot more when killing mobs compared to other classes.
