Attack damage vs elemental damage clarification?

14

Is attack damage increase better than elemental damage increase?

For example, if an attack says 200% damage and 70% of it is lightning. Wouldn’t “increase attack damage by 10%” be a 20% increase, while “increase lightning damage by 10%” would be 14%?

- increase lightning damage work with spell, attack dmg doesn't. But yes, for attack, attack dmg is better since it scale all type of attack dmg.

- Both stack addictively together base on base type dmg. If you have 100 physic with 70% convert to light, with 10% attack dmg and 10% lightning dmg, you will have 30*(1+10) physic, and 70*(1+10%+10%) light

Yes. Attack damage scales the entire attack, lightning damage just scales the lightning portion
