Even the poofing was done by Rumpel (DO magic smoke, which is red). While he's likely not powerless, I don't think he'd, under normal circumstances, be able to just beat Zelena like that. The reason Rumpel called upon Pan isn't because of Pan's power, but because Rumpel himself couldn't hurt Zelena because of their deal. If Oan were as powerful in 5B as he was in 3A, he'd have no reason to cuff her. Pan's power outside of Neverland seems to be on par with Cora's or Regina's, who are possibly the least powerful complete magic users (This excludes Cruella, Ursula, and Lily, as well as some others) to appear regularly on OUAT (Excludes Anastasia and Jafar).

Zelena, on the other hand, has shown to be a magical prodigy even without her pendant; not only that, but her skill level is very high. Skill level matters a lot in these analyses. It's because of skill level that Emma is such an underwhelming magic user and seems to rely on Regina for guidance when doing more serious spells.

Emma is more powerful than Zelena, though. Maybe not by much, but Emma is the product of True Love, and True Love is the most powerful magic of all. She's more powerful than any of the ordinary magic users in the main cast.

But Rumpel isn't an ordinary magic user. I used to think Emma was more powerful than Rumpel, but now with the whole "I have the power of every Dark One" thing, I'm not so sure. I'd say Rumpel is slightly more powerful than Emma, but the gap is low enough that Emma can be a threat to him.

The Sorcerer has equal power to a single Dark One, but all Dark Ones? I'm fairly sure he's just below Emma on the magic power bar.

The Snow Queen represents a force of nature; yes she was able to do incredible feats like freezing an entire island, but coincidentally it happened to be a cold island. I think her power level is heavily influenced by her surroundings. She is incredibly powerful, maybe as powerful as Zelena, if not more, but because she was the living embodiment of winter, we can't really tell if her powers stems from the Snow Queen herself or the element she was capable of controlling

Here's the order, in my opinion:

1) Rumpel (All DOs in one)

2) Emma (True Love is the most powerful magic of all)

3) The Sorcerer/Pan while in Neverland (Power equal to a single DO/essentially the supreme ruler of Neverland's magic, the Neverland god)

4) Zelena/Snow Queen (Most powerful normal witch we've seen/embodiment of winter)

5) Cora, Regina, and Pan outside of Neverland. My God, you overestimates  emma to much, she isnt all this  you say, she certainly  not has more raw power than merlin as you put, much less any dark one, she is a little above zelena in raw power ,but is not only this  that counts, in   variety, skill and knowledge she is Worthless plus you're overestimating ingrid Also, anyone of mills family could defeat her easily (cora, regina or zelena), all have greater raw power, skill, variety and knowledge than her
