Please, NEVER nerf RDM!

[Roda]

I think Magna has the right of it actually, RDM's melee skills are indeed physical damage but their potency is based on INT rather than STR, not unlike how NIN's melee skills scale of DEX instead of STR.

Which just makes this even more perplexing.

Even more, no RDM's enchanted melee skills are unaspected magic damage. There's no reason at all to consider investing in RDM's physical damage capabilities.
