As cheeky as it is, i am totally not surprised that RDM anything does "magic damage" because his weapon has the magic damage tag. As far as people complaining client side this client side that. If the "information" wasn't there to tell whether you got hit by physical or magical damage, then physical/magical cooldowns are either text flavored, or they work specifically and its not true, and/or they dont work at all and theyre just there as fluff skills on tanks
No, the resulting damage isn't tied to the stats that empower it.
Like he said, Unenchanted melee attacks are still physical damage, but they do more than 40 damage per hit.
Likewise, Paladins magic abilities, while determined by Strength and Vitality, still deal magical damage.
