" Mivo wrote: Actually, I just realized that the patch notes say that Shockwave Totem now COUNTS as spell damage, not SCALES with spell damage. Does this mean that the damage it deals will be spell damage now, no longer physical damage? If so, that would explain the 50% damage increase (since Hatred/etc would no longer benefit it). It's physical spell damage.

" Mivo wrote: Does this mean that the damage it deals will be spell damage now, no longer physical damage? There's no such thing as "spell damage" in the context you are describing. All damage is either physical or elemental or chaos. That's it. Any of which can also be tagged with "spell" -- allowing you to scale the dmg with spell damage.

" Both physical and elemental damage reflection from monster auras have been reduced from 15% to 14% reflection. Okay???? Also, I was a little surprised at how little changed outside of global nerfs.
