The base damage, attack speed and critical hit chance of an attack are determined using your weapon's stats unless a skill says otherwise.
Attacks do not necessarily deal Physical damage — they can deal any damage type.
Attacks are skills that directly use your equipped weapon to damage enemies. Spells are not attacks.

Limits of Attack Scaling
Non-channelling attacks can be performed once per server frame, which is 33 milliseconds. This nets out to 30.3 attacks per second. Performing attacks above this limit can actively reduce your dps as of Patch 0.1.1, causing you to miss server frames and reducing your damage relative to a character performing attacks at exactly 30.3 APS.
