Explosive Arrow

Does the explosion part of EA work with Item Quality/Quantity support gems, or is it like Fire Trap in that the burning ground isn't affected?

Yes it works with IQ/IR


But right now i have some issues with EA cuz if the Arrow pierces through a enemy it normally gets 1 stack. Since i have Pierce through Skillgem it doesn t work anymore!

But it does work with the pierce from Projectile Weakness Curse ...
Will having a ring with added fire damage affect the explosion of EA? and does the added fire damage mod from ring gain the bonus from elemental damage passive nodes?

If so which is better? and added fire damage or % fire damage on rings/ammys?

All Pierce is the same. It never applied Fuse Charges when Piercing enemies.
I'm still very unsure on exactly what works with EA and what doesn't. I've read through most of this thread, but either was not able to find certain things, or there were conflicting reports. So let's try to make this as official and exhaustive as possible. (I am of course referring to the fuse detonation part, who really cares about the initial hit anyway?)

Things that I know work with EA:
IIR/IIQ
Conc Effect
Iron Grip
Passive increases to projectile damage
Passive increases to fire damage

Things that I know do NOT work with EA:
Weapon Elemental Damage ( :sadface: )

Things that I need cleared up:
Added X Damage (lightning, fire, etc)
Life Leach
Mana Leach
Life on Hit
X Penetration (lighting, fire, etc)
Blind
Chance to Ignite
Culling Strike
Increased AOE
Increased Crit Chance/Damage
Stun
Warlord's Mark Leach Effect

Are you sure about Iron Grip? Earlier in this thread, Mark wrote:

Iron Grip only affects the projectile damage?

Yes. Note that both the arrow hit and the explosion are projectile damage.


This is a fairly ambiguous answer, but I took it to mean that the increased projectile damage from Iron Grip would also increase the explosion damage since it also counts as projectile damage. Is this an incorrect interpretation?

Iron Grip does not work on Projectiles, but on Projectile Attacks.
Ice Spear is a Projectile, but not a Projectile Attack (it's a Spell after all). EA's explosions are considered Projectile damage, but not Attack nor Spell damage.

It's not ambiguous :)
this build falls off due to the lack of scaling ability from 70+ gona respec or reroll. was fun tho.
