RDM's Weak Auto-Attack

[Duelle]

How come a lv 80 crafter will do more damage with an auto attack than a Red Mage will? I think it has the lowest auto attack of anything in the game, and it's a dps. Could you not raise it to maybe 300ish per auto attack?

This would require RDM's Physical Attack scaling with INT. I'm not against this (in fact, I suggested it a while back).

Granted, at that point you might as well have RDM do more in the front lines, which I'm also not against.
