Melee Elemental Damage questions

So I was looking through Spellblade and saw Infused Weapon, Prismatic Blade, and Triple Strike. I assume these only add the amount of damage for the specific element if the melee skill you are using has that elements tag? So something like Flame Reave would only get the added damage of the fire?

Does Rainbow Edge work this same way?
Is there a way to get an attack skill in Spellblade that has more elemental tags?

No, I’d say that those passives add all the flat melee damage to any attack regardless of the skill’s tags. There are other passives that add flat damage to skills with specific skill tags (eg, melee fire skills have xx added damage, though I can’t for the life of me think of one at the moment). Generally if added damage (or crit, etc) isn’t specified as to be applied to something specific (such as melee, spell or minions) then it’ll be applied to everything that your character does (so, an affix or passive needs to specify minion in it to apply to minions).
