    Without the context of it being your basic attack, that doesn't give enough information. We'd have an issue like we have now, only instead of it being "Does melee affect my arrow and magic shot on archer and mage?" it would be "Does basic affect my melee swings or arrows or anything?"

    I agree with this, I think it should be renamed Basic damage, Tig has the right idea here.

    The ultimate problem is coming up with a term that refers to the basic attack but not spells, which neither sounds like it could leave out some things (e.g. melee, with archer attacks) or sounds like it could encompass too much (e.g. attack damage or weapon damage, which sound like they include spells).

    Your spell damage is also determined by the damage your weapon deals. Thus, it could be confused as being a general damage up rather than just being for your basic attack.

    How is a spell not an attack then? Surely attack damage would make 200 times more sense than "melee" damage. Becuase what about the archer?

    I think this is an issue that should be brought to the devs, personally.

    Yeah, we seeing the issue here yet? All the obvious ones are either too long, unwieldy, or non-indicative in some way like melee damage(though not necessarily in the same way)...
