elemental weakness on hit corrupted mod on gloves

Hi,

Do I need to use the skill in the gloves to have the elemental weakness on hit effect? Can I use the skill from another gear like the chest?

Thanks!

You do not need the skill socketed in the gloves.

The mod applies the curse to hits from:

Your attacks,
Your spells,
Your totems,
Your minions (I think?),
And it doesn't matter where the gems are socketed.

The only things that don't apply the curse is when you don't deal damage (a 'hit' specifically refers to dealing damage).

this is entirely wrong

hit does not refer to dealing damage. Your direct hits with ie Ancestral bond passive (cant deal damage yourself) will indeed trigger all on-hit (Curse on hit, PCoC, Life on hit,...) effects that do not require damage (EE, status ailments..)

the only damage that cant apply curses via corrupted mod is DoT damage (DoT does not hit) and minion damage (minions are separate entities, they do not have these gloves equipped)
