Ran some quick tests on endgame OB bosses. All of these were taken during early daytime, against 100 alignment units.
Endora: Interesting enough, her physical durability's not as bad as adverised. She took less from light elemental physicals than her black knights took from darkness elemental physicals. Part of that is her excellent strength score, but part of that is a castle bonus, I think. Suspect castles improve defenses.
She also evaded a 155 AGI Eagleman 40% of the time or so. 120 AGI missed her about 80% of the time.
Her average damage is 105+5. PC HP is about 220 at that point. Basically, three turns kill from her, and five masscares anyone but reasonably durable bosses.
Gares fails. 60 average damage, undead support, and did not like magic. Decent against physicals, but 240 unscaled HP isn't going to cut it, combined with a verging 4HKO.
Rashidi's physical defense -was- as bad as adverseted. Despite high strength, he took a notable amount from physicals. He also evaded less than Endora. (Granted, two extra levels might have helped.) I think he evaded 20% of the time or so? He has every spell/move in the game. This includes dragon breath attacks. Lifesuck ignores actual defense. I think it's only affected by actual physical resist, which helps a good bit in the DL. Flipside, I oversold it's damage. It was only doing 55~ or so. Helps him against tanks like Jade, but hurts against someone like Ramirez.
Rashidi does about 115 to a 245~ average.
Endora is fully walled by a world card, despite Wind Shot running off of strength and hitting defense. Make of that what you will. Rashidi can break a world card with lifesuck and Wind Storm, which averages about 70 damage. Endora took a third of the magical damage of everything on her map, Rashidi around half. That INT does help.
What you make of that in the DL is your call, but Endora always fights on a castle in game.
Edit: Cleaned it up a bit.
