    Not even close.

    Displacement is physical damage that scales with INT and you Magic Damage from your weapon. Your RDM auto's scale with STR and thats it. They receive no benefits from your weapons damage number since its a caster weapon. Casting spells also pause your auto-attack timer. A base RDM auto is around 50~ damage non-crit. Displacement is hitting for around 2500 base in these vids.

    So whats the point to stay in melee?

    I mean, it is cool that auto attacks dont cancel dual cast, but its pointless since we will always use displacement to go in ranged.

    The only good point is using your rotation for manafication at 45 mana after the 2 melees combo (if manafication does not break the combo)

    Min/Maxing? It's a very minimal gain. Like lower than SMN most likely.

    But still you have to go manually in melee range, during the dual cast for really poor dps's gain... Yes it is a gain, but it is laughable gain xD

    Apart from the .01% dps gain, donut AoEs and nearly the back-to-back melee combos you just mentioned, if ever possible.

    Yep that's it. It's practically a non-existent gain.
