Mage pet + damage shield + normal cast damage is definitely more DPS than a Rogue who doesn't have the best Kunark-era weapons. The best weapons of that era still might fall behind actually, I'd be interested in seeing exact parses. Plus, it was uncommon back in the day for someone to have even close to the best weapons in game (still true for any new server), whereas casters get a much higher baseline of capability automatically.
