Path of Exile Dev Tracker

Elemental damage means elemental damage. If you have increased elemental damage then it will increase all the fire, cold and lightning damage you deal, regardless of whether it's with spells or attacks.



Spell damage refers to all damage dealt by spells, regardless of type.



For example, detonate dead is a spell which deals some physical damage - that would be increased by spell damage increases, but not by elemental damage increases.

Likewise, Glacial Hammer is an attack, not a spell, so none of it's damage is increased by spell damage increases, but since some of the damage is dealt as cold, that would be affected by elemental damage increases.



Not all elemental damage is dealt by spells, and not all spell damage is elemental.

Just so you guys know, we occasionally twitter beta keys...

We will have our own stand at PAX. Unfortunately we can't make it to Gamescom :(

Some companies say that they'll post new trailers/screenshots/announcements when they get some certain number of Likes on their FaceBook page. We'd rather post things as soon as we can and rely on the community to follow us on social networks if they want to.

Having said that, we'd really like you to follow us on the following services, if you use them. Please tell your friends, as well :)

Twitter: We frequently post small bits of wisdom to Twitter that only get mentioned on the forums in passing (it'd be weird to start a whole new thread to repeat one funny thing heard in the office). Service updates (patches, downtime, etc) are generally posted on Twitter as they happen. We also occasionally answer questions about the game on Twitter.
