Full Life Werebear EQ updated For 0.8.2I

So if I’m following here, the reason that the Physical damage increase item it is actually increasing the damage of EQ, is that the weapon has Melee Physical Damage as an implicit. So it’s getting increased, and the EQ damage does scale with Melee damage per the tag.

Yes.

If that is the case what are the best types of affixs to scale EQ in this build? I see in the planner that there are spell damage increase items, but EQ doesn’t say it scales with spell damage.

Werebear has a node that converts increased spell damage to increased melee damage.
Since the flat damage you have is split between phys, fire and cold, the relative effectiveness of the % increased phys/fire/cold damage affixes depends on how much of each flat damage you have. % melee would be best because it buffs all of the flat damage, as would % spell damage (because it gets converted to melee), %elemental would probably be next as it buffs both the fire and cold.

There is a note on the “Converts EQ damage to Fire” affix on the unique that it only converts the base damage not added damage. Which makes me wonder what Fire Damage increase affixes would do.

They would affect all of the flat fire damage from the weapon plus the small amount of base fire damage.
