tempest shield % lightning damage

does anyone know whether the +% lightning damage on quality tempest shield gem applies globally to all skills (like my discharge), or if it only applies to the lightning dmg on block from the gem? seriously would love an answer to this
It's local. All such modifiers are only applicable to skill itself or to linked active skills in case of supports. Otherwise they would be like free passives :).

Wrong, heralds provide a global % damage boost to all your skills with their quality.

As for the tempest shield, I dunno, you can always test it out rather easy no? Just pop a quality tempest shield and see if it raises DPS on your other skills.

In case of Tempest Shield it's local. They should really standardize stuff like that.
Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs.

Well, the more you know. I was pretty sure it's a local buff to added damage and lightning strikes, but I guess not.
