BattleMage and (Spell) Channeling Skill Interaction

"scorching ray" (SR) has a base fire dmg - does battlemage add the weapon's flat dmg to that base dmg?

if yes, does it do so only because of SR's "mods to spell dmg apply to this skill's DoT effect" or would it also work with other (spell) channeling skills?

It depends on the channeling spell. In general, I would say that battlemage would work, such as for Lightning Tendrils.

For Scorching Ray, it would not work, because Scorching Ray does not hit. Scorching Ray applies a damage over time effect, and those aren't affected by "Added damage", "Added X damage as Y", or "Convert % of X damage to Y".

ah, I see - thanks! :-)
