If a weapon reads "Add X-Y damage", is this reflected in your chars stats? Or does that only show basic weapon damage?

Yes it shows on the LCS. Don't know how accurate it is, bit you should see changes equipping and unequipping the item.
You get more accurate info from D2stats, a software that can be downloaded from the Tools section of the website.

It's active damage, increasing only with poison skill duration and/or base (and very little per soft) lvls in skill

Yeah D2Stats gave a better breakdown of the dmg. Thanks

do items with innate elemental damage only effect minions or my spells as well?

[Scalewinged]

IED works ONLY on sacred elemental bases and items with XX% of listed stat added as "some elemental" damage.

Just curious how this item was molded to get the extra stats. It has alot more fire spell damage than expected and procs.

Not sure if really a short question, but I'm essentially somewhat new player, my best is like finishing all lvl 115 ubers and reaching clvl 123, but I didn't like the playstyle of bowzon (not being able to tank) and melee sorc for me had the problem of not having very good mid game gear without lots and lots of farming. So now I'm going for either summon barb or summon paladin - but both builds will have problems late game - so respeccing is going to be a thing - but I'm wondering what would be better character for late game - barb or pally? If barb, I would most likely go for the Warcry spec, since it seems interesting and there is a good guide for it. If pally, then I think oskill based builds can be fun (like Trinity Beam and Rising Dawn and Thunderclash or even Shunpo Paladin as someone in the Sumodin guide outlined a way on how to do that) - my only problem with these choices is that there are no real guides, which might cripple my progression. Which path (or maybe something third) would more experienced players recommend to take? Goal would be to see most of endgame content (not necessarily complete them tho)
