Doom decreases AND pierces magic immunity.

Oh ye.. forgot about this property of Doom from XV...

[Fenris]

Does the "+XX to Pyroblast" on Greg's Silent Scream increase the A3 mercs Pyroblast, or is it only affected by the "+1 All Skills"?

[niqqa]

No. Bloodmages use their own version of Pyroblast. The Pyroblast version on Greg gloves corresponds to the Sorc's version.

I'm baacckkkk

So from what I understand of +spell damage and elemental weapon damage, the +spell damage only applies to the initial melee hit but it does not apply to any other striking effect such as Stormblast's trail.
Do I have that right?

If so, I'm curious about the elemental boosts from things like Bloodlust and Mark of the Wild
I was under the impression that the elemental boosts from them counted as +Spell damage and therefor would only work on the initial hit.

Is this accurate?

Let's say I have a

Hanabigami

Hanabigami
Arrow Quiver
Required Level: 60
Item Level: 80
5% Chance to cast level 36 Ice Lance on Kill
5% Chance to cast level 36 Forked Lightning on Kill
5% Chance to cast level 36 Flamefront on Kill
Adds 13-25 Fire Damage
Adds 13-25 Lightning Damage
Adds 13-25 Cold Damage
-(1 to 10)% to Enemy Elemental Resistances

and I use azmodan's heart recipe with it and it fails. If I reroll the quiver with unique upgrade recipe, does it have a chance to roll

Locust Hive

Locust Hive
Arrow Quiver
Required Level: 5
Item Level: 1
4% Chance to cast level 1 Arrow on Striking
Adds (2 to 3)-(8 to 10) Magic Damage
(4 to 6)% Life stolen per Hit

? I don't want to accidentally create a Locust Hive from my Hanabigami.

It has a chance of rolling as Locust, Cinder, Bucket or Hana.

So, tier upgrade would also have a chance to reroll it to those or just not work since it doesnt' have tiers?

[noal]

It simply doesn't work

No it wouldn't do anything because, as you said, it doesn't have a tier.
If the lottery recipe didn't work, I believe, your only solution now would be to either find a new one or use the Unique recipe on a quiver. I'd recommend a random quiver that you find.
That way you don't lose your current hana while attempting to create a new one.
Just bear in mind, it could take a great number of crystals to actually roll a hana.
A possibly massive number of crystals to roll a hana that gets the lottery bonus.

Correct. No spell damage stat increases the damage of WDM missiles, despite the char sheet display increasing.
