had to ask here:

does cold pen support lower resitances for the dot as well?

thx


Penetration only works for hits, period. This means no cold penetration for vortex or cold snap and no fire penetration for righteous fire, scorching ray, or ignite.

DOT do not hit so it can't penetrate while Cold Snap/Vortex actually hit can.

did you guys read the skill discription?

it says clearly cold snap HITS before applying the dot. my question is if that hit lowers resistance for the following dot as well?

No. The DOT is independent of the hit. Cold Snap/Vortex Hit dealing some damage and do DOT as well. The DOT itself isn't a hit so it cannot penetrate. Penetration isn't a buff it is a dmg modifier for hits, so if it is a hit it will increase the dmg (dealt by itself) otherwise it do not work. Meanwhile, you can try use Frost Bomb it reduce the monster resistance (like a curse, it's a debuff) increasing cold damage dealt by hits or DOTs. Note that Frost Bomb debuff increase the damage in the same way a cold penetration gem would do.
