@tobbrobb:

Thanks. I learn something new again. I thought affinity only include when you deal damage on monsters, never thought even if it miss,it also included as part of the affinity.

@vortextk: Ok, thanks. Glad I still right on this. So if I use both free element and elementless jewel on my Diablo Shatterer, the free element will negate the effect of elementless jewel, is that right?

@vortextk: Alright. Just to clarify. I might have a serious misunderstanding on how element and raw damage work all this time. Let just say I use Wrathful Predation(Devil Jho's Dual Blade) and attack a monster 10 times, among the 10 damage number display, how many of it consists of Raw and how many of it are elemental? I always thought weapon with elemental damage and raw damage have their damage combine together.

@ares42:

I've been playing this game for more than one hundred hours and only now I realize about this hidden element. Will non element jewel still work if I use my free element jewel on my weapon with hidden element. Let just say I have Diablos Shatterer 2 and I use both non element jewel and free element jewel on it, will both jewel work at the same time?

@tobbrobb:

I heard a lot of good thing about Divine Slasher too but never really try it because of 1) the hassle and 2) both the raw damage and elemental Dragon are lower than Reaver Calamity. Because of that, I never really understood why people prefer Divine Slasher over Reaver Calamity. Is the negative affinity really that bad? I mean it just 1 out of 4 chances you getting negative crit from my understanding of affinity. For my Reaver Calamity build, I didn't bother increase the affinity because I normally put on 3 Bazel alpha armor(lvl 5 earplug) set on my characters for the earplug because I really hate it when my character stagger because of monster's roar.

I thought non elemental jewel won't work on weapon with element. Diablo hammer and charge blade both have Ice element so wouldn't using non elemental jewel on then won't increase the raw too? Am I misunderstanding something?

@vortextk:

So equip the non elemental jewel on my Reaver Calamity is pointless then and has totally zero effect. What kind of weapon people normally equip the non elemental jewel on? Shall I equip Dragon Jewel to raise Reaver Calamity's Dragon elemental?

If I use a Non-elemental jewel on my Reaver "Calamity"(which has Dragon element), will it increase my Raw damage or must my weapon have totally no element at all, only then the Non-elemental work?

@vortextk:

So monster build resistance when first status happen on them.When I fought Behemoth I manage to creste blast on him 4-5 times in the first stage but as the we progress to next stage of the fight, the amount of blast I put on him become less.

Just to clarify, so for every 3 attack I did, I have 1 attack that will build up the blast attack or cause the blast itself?

I've been using Fire and Ice Dual Blade which has blast damage. How does the build up for blast happen? If attack halfway, then let just says I decided to sharpen my weapon and didn't attack for a while, then if I attack again, would the blast build up continue from the point before I sharpen weapon or does the blast build up start all over again.

There are times where the blast build up feels inconsistent in my play through. Does monsters build up resistance and immune towards blast once the status been inflicted?

@tobbrobb:

Thanks. So at most, elemental damage only represent around 10% of the damage displayed while the rest are pretty much raw damage.
