You would have a very hard time synchronizing the physics consistently across all affected clients. Imagine an area spell blowing pieces around that could injure characters or monsters. If calculated on client, every client will get a slightly different version of the situation. In the extreme case some characters could be dead on one client but not on another seeing the same scene.
