General Discussion - Support gems compatible with curses - Forum

Does the Added Fire Damage support gem enhance curses? Similarly, would Culling Strike work with curses? For example, if I link the Vulnerability curse with Added Fire Damage and Culling Strike, would cursed targets receive bonus fire damage and get killed at 10% health? Thanks! 🎈🤡LEGACY MINER & TRAPPER MIRROR SERVICE: 1713980🤡🎈 🎈🤡ETERNAL SUPPORTER UNIQUE: KAOM'S SPIRIT🎈Designer: IronVsWild🤡🎈 🎈🤡ETERNAL SUPPORTER SINCE APRIL 2012🤡🎈 🎈🤡IGN: CLOWNPOWDER & CLOWNLIVESMATTER🤡🎈	Posted by Castablanca#7670 on May 23, 2013, 12:15:21 PM Quote this Post

nope! Things like faster casting, reduced mana and blood magic affect curses.	Posted by boof#2056 on May 23, 2013, 12:16:35 PM Quote this Post
sorry, if this is dumb question, I'm a noob, and i did try googling it first. Didn't get any conclusive answers. Also, the PoE Wiki shows that Added Fire Damage and Culling Strike are Spell support gems. Since curses are Spells... i thought they might be compatible as well. http://en.pathofexilewiki.com/wiki/Category:Spell_support_gems 🎈🤡LEGACY MINER & TRAPPER MIRROR SERVICE: 1713980🤡🎈 🎈🤡ETERNAL SUPPORTER UNIQUE: KAOM'S SPIRIT🎈Designer: IronVsWild🤡🎈 🎈🤡ETERNAL SUPPORTER SINCE APRIL 2012🤡🎈 🎈🤡IGN: CLOWNPOWDER & CLOWNLIVESMATTER🤡🎈	Posted by Castablanca#7670 on May 23, 2013, 12:16:35 PM Quote this Post

Only things that affect the curse will support it, e.g. Increased Duration, Increased AOE, faster casting might be more.	Posted by vadimg#1559 on May 23, 2013, 12:17:11 PM Quote this Post

This is wrong, it really only shows supports which don't directly not work with spells. For example, Added Fire Damage adds damage in proportion to the physical damage. The only spells it works with are Ethereal Knives and Bear Trap. Most supports apply effects On-Hit. On-Hit supports will not work with spells which don't cause a Hit. Auras, Curses and Degeneration are not On-Hit. Brutus. Do you even sync? Last edited by AnnanFay#3468 on May 23, 2013, 12:50:20 PM	Posted by AnnanFay#3468 on May 23, 2013, 12:49:54 PM Quote this Post
