Hey guys, im playing galvanic shards mercenary

It converts a % of physical to lightning damage.

I recently rolled a crossbow with %120 physical damage increase but also 110% increased elemental damage with attack increase.

My issue seems to be i'm gaining what appears to be no / extremely little damage buff from the 110% elemental with attack to both my auto shot & galvanic shard ability.

Does anyone know if this only works with elemental damage on the crossbow? ( 10-30 fire damage ) for example.

Don't play galvanic shards, it's not good

No problem clearing t9 atm - hopefully it keeps up as i progress

Thanks for the tip though

thats the attitude i like

Increased elemental damage isn't always the best to scale your damage, u might see just a minimal damage boost from it so depends on your build + gear.

"% increased elemental damage with attack" is applied to the elemental damage your doing with attacks, not just the damage on your bow.

Good way to see this is like this: any skills that uses your weapon damage to do damage is generally considered an "Attack."

Anyone know?

it ALSO will work on the other elemental damage you were doing with your attack, like the small fire dmg from your bow will benefit from it.

Bump

i know!

weapon damage
then conversion


not weapon damage, conversion and weapon damage again


AKA, increased elemental damage on weapon is not applied to converted skill damage
