Hi mates.
I have a question for those "pro" players:

The "increases damage" effect, does it affects physical, magic or any damage dealt to the enemy?

Thanks a lot.

    What, amplify damage? All damage is affected.

    I have another question. Maybe sounds noob, but as I am new to this game, i don't know all terms and how all works.

    The Ironwood Scarab description says this:

    "Throw a splinted bug at the enemy inflicting Wood damage equal to base magic damage plus 120% of weapon damage plus 145.1. Reduces enemy's physical defense by 12% for 10 seconds."

    The question is:
    What the weapon damage is? Is it the "weapon magic damage" or the "weapon physical damage"?

    And base magic damage, is it the magic damage with or without weapon? I suppose it will be WITH weapon. I just ask because I can be wrong.

    Yes - your magic attacks consider your weapons magic attack.

    You have 2 different kinds of attacks: melee and magic. The physical damage displayed on weapon and C screen only applies to melee and the magic damage only applies to magic attacks. Unlike other classes, Venomancers can use both. The ranged skills you use, like ironwood, venomous scarab and others are 100% magic so the additional effect of decreasing physical resistance means nothing to your magic attacks but may help if you're using a pet that hits melee, like the most. Fox tree is very different than other ranged skills. fox form tree has curses which are magic but deal no damage and they also have physical skills which deal physical (melee) damage as if you were playing a BM or barb.
