Magus Vs Engineer balance

[faiden]

I would suggest a simple change to either magus or engineer.
At the moment engineer got a ranged and melee auto attack. However Magus only got a melee auto-attack (Staff).

The engineer auto attack can proc on hit effects and gets stronger with ballistic stat and weapon-skill.

Either remove the engineer ranged auto-attack and keep the melee attack OR give magus a ranged auto-attack based on INT.

There several other things that put engineers over magus in the DPS but this change would be a good start towards balance.

If only engineers attacks were physical and had to face 80% mitigation unlike the 45% at most that magus will face.

Ah no wait.
