[Kameron8]

I'd like to mention Kam that mathematically, it still scales less due to mages have access to much better scaling weapons than fists, Fan tomes, fan tomes, fan tomes, and rebelled tomes. seriously 50/50/50 scaling throws a monkey wrench into trying to compare to fists, none of which scale on the element of the scale in question.

The enormous base power of fists makes it more competitive to fan tomes than you'd imagine. It certainly scales better than mage spells with Sturm factored in, weapon disparities aside.
