Diablo IV: Is the Elementalist glyph triggered by +X elemental damage affixes?
Posted On: August 21, 2023

The Elementalist Glyph says:.


Dealing Fire, Cold, or Lightning damage to an enemy increases all damage you deal to them by 5%[x] for 10 seconds, stacking once per element.


I have an item with this affix:.


+20% Lightning Damage.


Does this mean all my skills now do lightning damage, and this counts for the Elementalist trigger?


Question from user Oak at stackexchange.


Answer:

Unfortunately not.


+20% Lightning Damage means that if you were to deal 80-100 damage which was a type of lightning (Chain Lightning for example), then you would benefit an additional 20% damage on top, so a perfect 100 would become 120.


+20% Lightning Damage will not help you if you are casting/using Cold, Physical, Poison, or Fire.
