Added Chaos Damage
"I will investigate. Projectile damage increases should increase all damage dealt by projectiles (hence the name). What skill are you supporting with it, and if that skill is an attack, what weapon are you using? I am unable to replicate this myself - Increased projectile damage passives are definitely increasing the chaos damage this gem adds to both projectile spell skills (Fireball) and projectile attacks (Frenzy, wielding a wand or bow).

I use a thicket bow, but I put it in the 3 slot I have on my boots that had a blue socket. I believe I put both Lightning arrow and split arrow in there with this gem and the chaos damage stayed the same base. I can get screens later if you need them.
Edit: showing increases now. It's very possible I wasn't reading the original damage correctly or something, but I triple checked before posting. Well sorry to waste your time on this Mark. I'm the Ps guy: Psomm, Pso, Psong, pso-on and pso-phorth. Last edited by Psomm on May 25, 2012, 12:11:03 PM

"Not a problem. much better for me to waste a little time to find something does work than not have something brought to my attention that doesn't. Glad to hear it's working correctly for you. | |
Is chaos damage buffed by elemental damage passives?
|
|
"No. Fire, Cold and Lightning are the elemental damage types. Physical and Chaos are not elements. | |
This gem does not stack with the weapon elemental damage support gem. I have tried using the above support gems attached with the Heavy Strike skill.
Probably intended though, support gems supporting another support gem would probably make the movie inception sound like a fairy tale! | |
" Mark's post right above yours explains this behaviour; it's intended. Support gems can increase the effects of other support gems; +%Weapon Elemental Damage will improve +Cold/Fire/Lightning damage support gems when both are used with Weapon damage skillgems. | |
I hate that it needs Int stat only. It should something that needs all three stats to it should be available for all chars if they stack +all stats gear, they shoud be rewarded by this gem. Maybe its too much inbalanced because dex chars have enough choas damage sources already but str chars have nothing.

Does this(and I ask this for added lighting and cold damage too) work with spells such as freezing pulse, ice spear, ice nova etc.?

" Yup. |
