Spirit Dart Nerf?

Like the title says it seems Se's messed something up w/ Spirit/Phantom Dart. My THM Weapon has 9 damage on it so it mimic's that damage, I thought these attacks were magical, not physical attacks.

It seems they completely forgot to add an magic stat to weapons for casters, So basically i want to know if this was intended or not. I don't like that i have to spam spells to kill stuff, using mages basic attack is pointless.

Also i think the dmg calculations for low lvl mobs need to be put into more consideration, while i can solo them fine i think it will be too hard for the non skilled players etc, the first 20 lvls need to be like training mode or something

Besides that i love everything else the patch has brought.

Yes. The damage on Spirit Dart is pitiful now for me as well. On the plus side, spells like Flood and Drain II hit much much harder.
