Are Amazons' Fire Elementals' fire spell on death (Fire Cannonade) affected by character fire spell damage or the +Summoned Minion Damage affix?

Also, do Fire Elemental's +fire pierce per base point only apply to attacks from Fire Elementals? If so, does the Fire Cannonade also get the pierce damage considering the fire elemental is dead?

If a minion scales with your stats, it is stated explicitely. And yes, the fire canonade benefits from the fire pierce. There are 2 su items btw that make fire elementals scale with your stats, look them up.

scale with base vit or total vit? would this make a full vit mag/phys spell build feasible? I'm thinking cold/poison for the max life, phys resist, spell dmg + the set that makes Hive convert vit to energy

Respawning this unanswered question from 2 months ago... Diaco's plan sounds really smart, and could result in a nice sorc build. I'm really not an expert in builds mechanics though, has anybody tried and made this work?
Thanks!

172% pierce is enough for nearly everything and you don't need 200+ pierce (and even still 27% more pierce to 199 won't make too many difference for Deimos/Sam/Phobos) so just look at page 2 which armor gives you more damage.
PS: Or you still can calculate it manually, that's no a big deal (but place some random shield in offhand wepen slot so speedcalc will give you proper phys damage value).

is there any information on the exact values for the oskill "Amatoxin" around?

I know it gives poison damage to weapon, but how much? What is the duration? How does it scale with +levels?
I can't really check ingame even if I have the skill because it's a passive and the other poison damage sources screw with the sheet damage.
