Stormbind of teleportation isnt affected by increased damage with movement skills stat
EDIT: Not a bug, just complex mechanics
Tested with Bronn's Lithe chest. The chest provides +5 levels to movement gems and up to %100 increased damage with movement skills, which are supposed to be synergizing. Stormbind of teleportation benefits from the +5gems damage boost, but the tooltip isnt affected by the #% increased damage with movement skills on the chest. https://imgur.com/a/BMLxR12 Last edited by Emrico#4817 on Sep 20, 2024, 9:45:38 AM Last bumped on Sep 20, 2024, 9:42:00 AM

Stormbind part does not have a movement tag. Rune Blast with a movement tag does not directly deal damage.

Stormbind of Teleportation does have a movement tag unlike the base gem.
OP, have you tested any other movement skills to see if their DPS is changed by Bronn's? Given the reputation of tooltip DPS, wouldn't be surprised if that one specific stat just doesn't work for tooltip. Tried poking around and could only find one other item with that stat, Wildslash Awl, if you want to test with it too. Does equipping it change the DPS or not. If not, just a broken tooltip stat among many others. |

" Stormbind of Teleportation gem contains two skills - Stormbind of Teleportation skill and Rune Blast of Teleportation skill with different tags (which are combined into one description). Stormbind of Teleportation skill does not have a movement tag. |

" Did you watch the imgur link? I'm not familiar with Stormbind, but they only hovered "Stormbind of Teleportation" (not Rune Blast of Teleportation) in 3 different situations: 1. Equipped, no Bronn's: No damage increase - Expected 2. Equipped, Bronn's Equipped, not in Bronn's: No % damage increase - Not expected 3. Equipped in Bronn's with no other supports: Increase in damage - Expected +5 change from Bronn's. So the post is only questioning the % damage on Bronn's. +5 appears to be working normally to me. Movement tag of Stormbind of TP appears to be functionally normally if by socketing Stormbind of TP from boots to already equipped chest causes a damage increase. If there is more to Stormbind split skill, then I am not understanding what you're referring to. |

" Stormbind of Teleportation gem is a movement gem and therefore benefits from the +5 gem level, but Stormbind of Teleportation skill does not have the movement tag and does not benefit from movement skill damage. Rune Blast of Teleportation skill has the movement tag but does not deal damage itself. |

In typical PoE fashion, about as clear as mud to me why they would split it that way.
Thanks for your attempt at explaining it to me, I'll return to never thinking about this skill again, haha. |

Alright, I think I understand the issue. Gem tags do not necessarily apply 1-1 to skills or damaging portions of skills. A kinda similar example may be ball lightning not being affected by proj damage, casue the zaps from the ball aren't projectiles (at least thats how I remember). I'd wish for better in game explanation of this ideally but its hard to, and it is for sure not the first time im bamboozled by this game.
PoB does not reflect the damage increase either. Although its not official tooling I guess I should have realized this before commiting to a meme character. +5 will still carry hard though. I also did more testing, and indeed the teleportation effect belongs only to rune blast of teleportation, details:
Spoiler
Using two gems, regular stormbind and a stormbind of teleportation I tested these scenarios:
Detonating regular stormbind runes with a rune blast of detonation teleports. Detonating stormbind of teleportation runes with regular rune blast doesnt teleport. Last edited by Emrico#4817 on Sep 20, 2024, 9:42:37 AM
