Uhm, yes, basically picks up exactly what I said?

But still, this is only partially correct. The caster cap is not lower than rear, because it is exactly this: the rear cap. This is because 'casts/spells' are considered hitting from the back, no matter which side their hitting from. This doesn't affeckt garuda's auto attack though, because even though it's magical damage, it's an auto attack, not a 'magic spell'. This may be dumb and put smn's at a disadvantage in terms of gear choices (not that they aren't bad enough already in this patch lol), but it is the reason why they need flank cap for garuda.
