>>5803979Physicals and Magicals work kinda like how they do in those games. Physicals can land critical hits better with a good critical ceiling, and Magicals are better at hitting resistances due to purely being an attack of that type, as with Physicals the 'physical' part also counts on top of the element.
Also, there will be some enemies who interact worse (in their case I mean) on the kind of attack.
Like take for example this Smoke Youkai, magicals would work better on it than physical attacks.
For this Samurai, he is a good balance of resistance between physical and magical attacks.
This Woldorian would get messed up by magic and can weather physicals better thanks to his excellent Heer training and hardened nature as a denizen of the continent ruled by the God of fucking Battle, who is Totally Not Odin.
