May 21, 2016 More importantly.you have 32 Int, half as much as you should have for that fight; and I'm sure your staff is barely above +3 / using the wrong staff. You havent even reached the soft cap for magic damage.it's understandable that you're fighting an endurance fight at that point ( which there is nothing inantely wrong with ). Best strategy? Sep 25, 2016 The addon does exist, but you may want to combine it with another addon (at least I do). There are two addons that show hp/percentage for Frenzied Regeneration, one of those does a better calculation (Mastery, Versatility), but the other shows the melee vs. Magic bar thingy.

So what exactly is the difference If using let's say a fire skill and got 1 item of either 10% spell or elemental increase the damage increase would be the same of either of them right?? And playing as a Witch is your normal attack considered to be a 'Spell' attack with a wand or elemental? | Posted by SAKRAY on Apr 5, 2012, 9:24:05 PM |
10% spell damage or elemental damage will do the same on a fire spell. But 10% spell damage will increase chaos damage, unlike elemental damage. Do you mean basic attack with wand? No, it isn't spell damage. But if the wand deals elemental damage, %increased elemental damage will work on it.

Ah oke thanks for the quick awnser and chaos damage is a special kind of damage or? Also to increase wand damage I have to get STR/Pysical boosts? edit: Also if your weapon has like 6 cold damage does elemental increase only increase the 6 cold damage portial of the basic atk?

Strength does not increase the physical damage of ranged weapons unless you get the keystone passive that allows it to do so, or support your attack skill with it. Increased spell damage will increase the damage of all of your spells, including chaos spells as was stated. If you a weapon with elemental damage attached to it, increased elemental damage will only increase the elemental portion, not the physical portion of your attack. However, you can get decent elemental levels on your attacks by utilizing elemental hit, lightning strike, lightning arrow, fire arrow, molten strike, or glacial hammer. These all add or convert a large amount of elemental damage to your attacks, and increased elemental damage will add to all of them (but spell damage will NOT because they are attacks and not spells).

' yes, chaos damage isn't reduced by elemental resist or armor, and it bypass energy shield. Some enemies have chaos resist though, but it just reduces the damage a bit, you can still kill them. ' yes, if you get the %increase ele damage from a passive, it will increase the 6 cold damage on your weapon.

I know this thread is old but if someone sees it I would be glad to get an answer. so if i understand this correctly. Elemental DMG boost all forms of attacks/spells that have some sort of element in it. And spell DMG only increeses the dmg of actual SPELLS. I have done a Witch where i go heavy into lightning DMG (dont know if it is good late game or not but i wanna try it). So i can both get spell dmg and elemental dmg to boost the damage of my lightning spells such as spark and lightning trap for exampel? | Posted by Herlitz on Nov 9, 2013, 2:18:35 PM |
Both spell dmg and elemental dmg will boost the damage of your lightning spells. | Posted by sydgame on Nov 10, 2013, 2:10:09 AM |
I have a witch doing cold damage. I was told that x% increased elemental damage passives not only increases the cold damage but also increases chill and freeze damage so is better bang for buck than x% increased spell damage passives. Using Freezing Pulse, Ice Nova and Ice Spear. Is this right? Thanks in advance. ~DemiDemon~ Playing almost every day since Beta version 0.9.1 in 2011.

' In short, no. 'Chill and freeze damage' doesn't exist. Chill and freeze duration is based on the damage dealt by the hit that triggered them. Anything that increases the damage of the original hit increases the duration of chill/freeze. No extra damage is dealt to a monster just because you chilled or froze it. Whoever told you that is getting chill/freeze mechanics mixed up with ignite/burn mechanics. You're welcome to make a new thread for this kind of thing instead of bumping really, really old ones.

'Thanks for the answer. Yeah, he had a fire witch and I assumed that what applied to one element would naturally apply to another - my bad. 'Again, my bad. After looking over the site for 20 mins I resorted to Googling the term 'elemental damage vs spell damage' and this was the only result close to what I wanted to know. When it didn't give me quite the answer I needed I thought it better to post in a similar thread rather than start another and end up with even more thousands of threads that are next-to-impossible to search through.
