Agility and Dexterity passives in Medium Armor Skill Tree

Are these two passives at all useful for magicka based staff users?

Nope.

Hey @chaserstorm16909.

As it currently stands neither Agility or Dexterity are useful for Magicka-based Staff users. Agility increases weapon damage and Dexterity increases critical strike rating with physical attacks (weapon critical). As staff damage scales from max Magicka and spell damage neither of these are of any use to Magicka-based staff users.

Any reference to "weapon damage", "weapon critical" or "physical damage" refers only to weapons that deal physical damage (everything but staves).

Hope that clears it up!

Thank you everyone. That's what I thought.

Does "physical damage" then refer to all abilities that consume Stamina, even those that, for example, do Flame damage?

Yes if a ability uses stamina it goes off weapon dmg, for example unstable flame.
