Elemental Hit
" It's Elemental Damage dealt with a Weapon skill (ie. Attack). It benefits. " The gem description explicitly mentions it's Base Damage, ie. without modifiers. It's a quirk with how stats are displayed currently. (also, with LMP/Chain it's probably not going to be much of an increase anymore :P ) |

Just to be clear, for a bow user, do increases in projectile damage increases elemental hit damage??
I assume this is the case but you never know. |

Yes, the additional Elemental Damage will count as Projectile Damage as well.

elemental equilibrium might be the biggest dps boost for elemental hit that I know of. My bow duelist was using a level 8 gem in merciless docks with elemental equilibrium and and clear mobs surprisingly fast.

Until you get two Elemental damage types on your gear (or from an ally's Aura) anyways. Even just getting one will hurt EE's effectiveness pretty notably. But yes, it's pretty good stuff.

I have my hopes up for one of my favourite skill gems, Elemental Hit for when Scion is released.
Hopefully the girl will be in easy reach for both Weapon Elemental Damage passives, Elemental Equilibrium and some nice manaregen nodes or Blood Magic + Vaal Pact. For now I have difficulties sustaining spammability of the skill on any other characters without sacrificing too much survivability. On another note: Elemental Hit is probably the best candidate for using with EE, but it's still questionable if it's worth dropping items with + flat ele damage and some elemental auras. |

" And i think, the BEST candidate ever for EE (Elemenatal Equlibrium) is obviously Explosive Arrow. Unlike Elemental Hit, Explosive Arrow guarantees -50% resistance from EE to be applied for explosion. As for elemental hit.... damn it's mana cost is soooo high...

I guess a cat rolled over the keyboard when the spreadsheet was open. Mana cost is unrealistically high. This skill is dead to me now.

A silly one..if using EH do the bow statistics mean anything? Or is it more like a spell where the wand damage is irrelevant?

Elemental Hit is an Attack, not a Spell :)
