2R > Q most often. Unless the pawn structure is badly broken, or blocked for the rooks. With passers the Queen is usually doomed. It has problems blocking pawns. Q > R+X+P if there are no advanced passers. 3X > Q, X=B,N more often than not. And not uncommonly cases 2X = Q, there are lots of such games. 2B > 2N unless the pawn formation is fluid. And with reduced material Q+N attacks better than Q+B. This is contested, Capblanca thought otherwise. And R+B > R+N unless the pawn position is ragged and the knight can post or block.
