I'm hoping they change it so temps just swing their magic damage as melee when blunt is buffed, and they get some extra pure attack based on a % of their int so their base attacks hit harder since they don't have a burst skill, but not the ridiculousness we have seen over the years where temps hitting 20k+ while other classes regulars do 1-2k...but no more double dipping +attack items, scroll stacking melee/magic scrolls, or extra benefit from skills like empower that buff magic, convert to melee, and get buffed again.
