If there was a class chart for bossing/1 vs 1/mobbing.

Just an idea.. You won't get bumped around or anything. Krexel is pretty much strong to every element.

That would defeat the purpose for Magicians. They're at their best when they have elemental advantage, but even without it, they should at LEAST look at NEUTRAL damage. But if you're comparing the BEST a class can do? Definitely look at a Magician having elemental advantage.

We know some damage formulas though, right? Calculating DPS for each class should be a simple matter. The only debatable thing would be what stats to assume for each class (clean gear, perfect scrolled, perfect potential, no stats from gear at all, etc.), but with a nice spreadsheet, multiple data sets could be compared for varying levels of equipment for every class. I'd be interested in seeing how the classes compare DPS-wise when you look at the effect gear could play on it, especially as that relates to the market value that such equipment would have.

And by the way, damage isn't everything. Different classes offer different experiences. Some have different playing styles that some people might consider more fun, some may require less expensive equipment, some may have valuable support skills, better mobility allowing for better killing power in real situations, etc. Just being able to do a higher DPS while standing still in one place isn't the only thing to consider about a character.
