Loki was strong enough to manhandle Thor to a degree. Was easily overpowering Captain America in a purely physical fight. Had reflexes fast enough to catch an arrow without looking. Is outright bullet proof. Even without his magic and guile, Loki is an absolute beast of a fighter.

Or at least he was. This series has completely removed that aspect of his movie version.

He is a great fighter in his future self. How good is in Thor or the Avengers? Prior, he depends upon Gungnir or his spectre loaded up with an Infinity Stone for the big magic. I daresay his horned tiara gives him some power as well.

Loki does admit to Möbius he is mostly magic bravado to hide his weaknesses.

He had his best fights in Thor and Avengers. He gave Thor a fight in both the first Thor movie and Avengers. He used his spear mostly as a melee weapon and didn't depend on its powers like you said. In Avengers he beat up Captain America in a purely physical fight. And while he used his scepter to mind control a few SHIELD agents, he still used mostly physical attacks to take them out.

And again in Avengers, he caught Hawkeye's arrow in mid air without looking, got hit by a shoulder tackle from Hulk and immediately got back up, took a grenade to the face without injury, and was completely bulletproof.
