EDITED: Actually. Probably the simplest thing to do would be to just leave hit_offset_quantifier2 alone in mode 2...
That's probably even more practical than having a stat produce a magic wall, even though that is pretty common in video games. By not setting up that extension you'd just be saying that once the magic attack is out of the barn, its a physical phenomenon just like anything else. And so a strong man is in a better position to defend themselves from the attack than a old wizard would be.
Anyway, that would be much more compatible with SOM because monsters don't have Strength and Magic stats as such, and it isn't obvious if their attacks are one or the other based... the same way it is with the player, where you always press the Magic button for Magic attacks.
You could also just combine Strength and Magic for defense as if you can draw from either source to defend yourself.
