It's more likely a bug since Garuda hits for more then Ifrit despite Ifrit having more potency.

(also Ifrit does NOT scale up with your STR, he scales up with your INT just like garuda. Can't comment about whether he uses the magical or auto attack damage of your book though, except that he does scale up with something on your weapon, just not sure what it is.)
