Damage per minute, averaged (meaning mastery was applied)
Evan with AMP + Critical + Fury
Mage with AMP
Note that I didn't count the basic attack buffs because someone told me that Soul Dragon and Magic Mastery add magic attack, not the base attack on each skill.
With the above charts, Illusion is only 60% stronger than Paralyze if both mages have no elemental weapons and same stats. If we count elemental weapon, then Illusion is only 28% stronger. Blaze would then be the strongest skill on an Evan because Illusion is a neutral skill. Blaze would only be 55% stronger than Paralyze.
I'm not even sure if Blaze would be affected by Elemental weapons, because it's a summon doing your work and not you. If the Evan's dragon works the same way all the other current summons in the game do, then Elemental weapons would not work on an Evan.
So if EW work on Evan, they're 55% stronger. If EW don't work on Evan, they're only 24% stronger.
That's hardly an improvement. It's an improvement, but not enough that an Evan can compare with the other nonmage Adventurers at DPM. You'd have to pretty much double the single target damage of an Adventurer mage to do that, and even then, the damage wouldn't come close to Aran's damage. And with a nonspammable ultimate, Evan are weaker at mobbing than Adventurer mages are. GG.
At least they didn't completely trump the mage class like they trumped the warrior classes with Aran.
