phys balance helps u do more damage when not using imbue or using phys based skills
mag balance helps u do more damage when using imbue or mag based skills
some1 with 100% mag balance will do a lot of damage with a nuke, while some1 with 100% phys balance will do a lot of damage with skills that are phys based.
an example would be hybrid nukers doing less damage than full ints and hybrid strs doing more damage with imbues than pures

Just to make sure..To 'use' the phy balance you don't have to fight without imbue.

The phy/mag balance is just a part of the calculation for your damage on mobs/players. So always try to get the highest balance possible on both of them (so even if you are pure str try to get a high mag balance while staying pure ofcourse, since your imbue will be affected by the balance. And your weapon (non euro that is).
