Mage pets alone will outdamage a lot of melee classes if you take the time to get a max summon and buff it appropriately. Nukes so push the mage over the top and we’re talking a lazily tossed 1-2 nukes per fight. This still ignores the mage dmg shield which isn’t insignificant.
Remember we’re talking groups here. Mages get the shaft in the raid scene.

I honestly don't think that matters too much. All classes can fill roles just fine in a 50's XP group. You don't see groups heavily screening out other classes in favor of Mages for a slight edge in DPS. It's the same reason why groups don't screen for gear. You really don't need to go that crazy on DPS in a leveling group most of the time.
As I have stated before, Mages can level just fine. I just don't think that makes up for how much they fall off at 60 compared to other classes.
