random skill gem support idea

felt bored invented a new support skill gem

physics support
convert all elemental damage to physical damage
50-30% less damage

quality -0.5% reduced damage

so a 20/23 gem would be


physics support
convert all elemental damage to physical damage
18.5% reduced damage

this gem would happen after all other conversions as a result at max 20/20 added fire damage would still add a bit of damage

and a corresponding jewel cuz why not

power physics (medium range), limited at 1

with at least 50 strength reduce the damage penalty with 10%

would be great for starforge, potentially for glacial cascade, doryani's fist

...now that you mention it...

lol k plan 2 we make it lightning only lightning has been in need for buffs anyways


strength of thunder
convert all lightning damage to physical damage
50-30 less damage

-0.5% less damage per quality

Phys -> Lightning -> Cold -> Fire -> Chaos.
GGG will never allow reverse conversion. And it is right.

Lightning needs a buff? lol okay

Strength of Thunder + Physical to lightning =

Physical to lightning to physical to lightning to physical......


So, no.

They should allow Chaos to physical damage conversion (instead of elemental to physical) and add a couple of more Chaos skills for every weapon type then - although not over powered like the last AOE/channeling focused ones...
