seeing as though we have wood based atks in all our atks (except melee hits) is it better to use a wood atk+ shard on our weaps or a mag atk shard?

    Elemental attack shards only work with physical hits. So unless you're a werefox, which I don't think you are since you said all your attacks are wood, then go with magic attack shards.

    That would had been nice but sadly the woodshard only effect your weapon not your magic skills. It turn your physical hits to wood elemental.

    so clerics that put metal shards on their weaps are also useless?

    well, the cleric itself probably isn't useless lol, but those metal shards are not going to add any damage to their spells.

    It is different with clerics with metal attack shards or we can have 2 weapons one for metal and the other for magic.I put wood shards on my Venos pataka.

    this is wrong.

    elemental shards do not help plume shot, they do not help veno magic.
    only put sapphires or citrines in your venos weapon

    You use melee? Because that is the only attack type that elemental shards have any effect on. Metal damage is not added to metal spells, wood damage is not added to wood spells. I have tested this extensively, if you cast spells you need to use sapphires or else you are only throwing your money away.
