Path of Exile 1 Gameplay Help and Discussion - does storm drinker work with traps/mines? - Forum

It doesnt say anything about "you" or "your damage"... So i wonder, does this work with traps/mines etc ? https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Passive_Skill:Affliction~notable~storm~drinker Last bumped on Jun 24, 2020, 11:27:20 AM	Posted by oestergreen#1184 on Jun 24, 2020, 8:54:33 AM Quote this Post
Storm Drinker Damage Penetrates 8% Lightning Resistance 0.5% of Lightning Damage Leeched as Energy Shield Since the trap/mine is a proxy of your skill, their damage penetration will apply, and their hits (remember penetration only applies to hit damage, not DoTs. Reducing an elemental resistance is not penetration) However, the Lightning Leech will NOT be redirected to your character. They should apply to the trap or mine, but since they are destroyed on "trigger", and have only 1 HP and No Energy Shield, that leech is effectively wasted. In case of Totems, that leech will be applied to the Totem's Energy Shield, if any	Posted by Maxtrux#0762 on Jun 24, 2020, 9:21:39 AM Quote this Post
